#sneakerswould

Not another fashion blog post I promise.

By now you’ve likely ascertained that I have a certain fondness for Converse sneakers. This is not about sneakers. Instead it is about what those sneakers would do. #SneakersWould, it seems, spend most of Saturday watching the window as the rain pummeled it and question whether leaving the house that evening with the sniffles was such a good idea.

It was.

There is a free gig happening in Melbourne on October 22 sponsored by Converse and they are looking for a professional fist-pumped for this gig (also known as the easiest job ever), advertised on SEEK right now:

• Do you have hands?

• Can you count to four?

• Then we want you!

  Converse is seeking a front row fist pumper to keep the beat during a free Converse live music gig in Melbourne. It's essential you're able to maintain composure through a shower of sweat from the band and crowd.

  This temporary, one night only, position is open for a front row fist pumper at a free gig in Melbourne on October 22. The successful applicant will show a willingness to party in the front row of the mosh pit, act rebelliously and living spontaneously in the moment.

  Selection criteria:

• An advanced diploma in circle pit.

• Demonstrated ability to live in the moment.

• Technical knowledge in handling bodies overhead.

• 18+ years of age.

• Appreciate the epic sounds of bands, 'The Vines' and 'Bloods'.

  If this sounds like you, apply now by forwarding your application to [email protected] #sneakerswould

Palma Violets had us spinning and grinning at their show in Paris.

The Horrors got loose when they performed at our secret show in Paris last month.
