Thank you Mario! But our princess is in another castle!

We went to see Princess 1.5 and The Winter Ship at the Northcote Social Club a couple of weeks back. I have been trying to see the princess for some time now, so it was good to finally catch her. She played a great set with the boys from Because of Ghosts and it was exactly what I was expecting. They play a really nice combination of post-rock-like progressions with samples and dream-like vocals. It has a very modern, current feel to it. That's not a very good explanation, but I know what I mean {please insert smiley here Blogger}.

Princess 1.5.

I could only stay awake for a couple of the Winter Ship's songs, but there was a bunch of them playing violins and stuff and I'd like to see them again. I was fighting off 24 hours of 'aeroplane awakeness' and I finally lost.
