Wow I just read about that.

Unbelievably sad.

Yeah, that was very sad news. When I first heard about it on Saturday, it didn't sound too serious, but then there were complications and things quickly went downhill. Really awful.

Very close to home. RIP.

Not much happening in NZ racing this week.

That's lucky, because I'm a bit distracted - tomorrow I'm going to see The Naked And Famous play their first Auckland show since they released their chart-topping debut album. The show is sold out (not surprising - they come from Auckland, and we love them here), and it's going to be amazing! So excited.

I can't get enough of this band at the moment.

That should be fun! Liked the first one the best.

Hey ed any word on if Muse is going to play in Auckland? I know they have tour dates in Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney and Perth... fingers crossed!

Did you see this?

It would be ****ing fantastic if it happened.

Too many I like in that field but this would be awesome.

I would be very happy with that result!

I don't know if Muse will come here in this tour - maybe not. But I've seen them here five times, including January this year, so I don't really have much to complain about!

Would have been nice to see the towers live, though.
