Welcome to January …

January 5, 2014

2014.

How did this even happen? Suddenly Christmas appeared and now we are in yet another year. So here is an obligatory summary of some of the better bits of 2013.

Last year was a pretty monumental year for both Gem and I:

Brains and I moved into our “actually proper just for the two of us” house – situated approximately 7 doors or so away from Gemma at the same time as going to Norway for the first time ever:

Dakesis made the decision to become a four piece:

We returned to the stage, and went back to enjoying our Dakesian adventures with the four of us and being as mischievous as ever:

Gem and I survived the journey to the holy Wacken lands, this time avoiding getting the car broken into, and Gem and Roode shared their first anniversary together. As well as being monumentally owned by the sun on our crossing to Europe:

I quit my job and started working with Brains at BIOSTALL, which meant I had more time to do stuff like this:

We witnessed the wedding of our two oldest joint friends Libby & Ian (not to mention I went blonde!):

We then got to spend yet another Dakesis Christmas with all of our lovely friends, fellow Dakesian’s and family which mainly resulted in this:

But most importantly, 2013 was when we finally got off our arses and launched Hellbent for Lipstick!

Our first ever post went live on 16th May 2013.

So here’s to another year of heavy metal, makeup, beauty, friends, family and being full of steel! Thank you for reading and Happy New Year :)

Totally hellbent for festivities and friends

    Happy New Year to the both of you! I keep meaning to ask, do you have some recorded material from Dakesis?

    Thanks Natalie! We have an album “Trial By Fire” which you can find on Spotify/Amazon/Itunes or buy http://www.dakesis.com is the palce to go, although from our ramblings on here people have probably guessed we are working on album number two now.
