oh right. where are you from again? that sucks man. I hear tickets on ebay are a couple of hundred already. i don't think i'd be paying that much.....

I'm not a fan of powderfinger or silverchair i have to say.
I used to love powderfinger when i was in highschool though, so every now and then i take out internationalist and have a lot of fun listening to it. Belter is still an awesome song.

Are you going to the Big Day Out?

pssst. I hope you place in the contest.

Thanks man!

Totally. And the whole soulmate thing makes me feel even more hopeless.

By the way, you walked into a tree and scratched your eye once? I walked into a bike last night. It was O.K., there were only 50 school mates standing behind me, chances are none of them saw.

I can definatley understand the cat empire thing. All i can say is; you're missing out on some good times.

Holy moly the herd suck dick. I could have told you that.

What have You Am I have you heard?

Are you giving Belles a go?

Yo - Here are some of my favourite aussie bands if you're interested...

You Am I and Timmy Rogers' solo work go down a treat. Do you not like you am i? They're fuckin great, please listen to them.
Believe it or not The Whitlams had some good stuff when they first started out. They're first CDs, introducing and undeniably, have some good songs on them...and then some not so good ones. Introducing is a whole lot of fun though. I wouldn't recommend getting undeniably on second thought. Those 2 CDs are so 'highschool' to me, so maybe it's the memories that make me love them.....

Check out Belles Will Ring - I'm not just saying this because I know them and the singer is my best friend's boyfriend. They're really good and they're album is going really well. It's called Mood Patterns and you can pick up this little gem at JB HiFi, if that's any indication of how well they're going. It gets a bit slow in the middle, but mostly I think this ablum is rockin' and you should like it. Trust me and buy it or check them out on myspace.

While you're on Myspace check out these sydney bands; Sister Jane, The Holy Soul and Maple Trail. They're all friends with Belles and there's a bit of an incest thing going on with using eachothers band members.

If you ever get the chance to go see Watussi live you definately should. They don't work well on record but live - holy crap, they go off.
If you can sift through their crap, The Cat Empire have some INCREDIBLE songs. It's such a pity they make such terrible music and only spit out gems here and there. How To Explain? on their first album is my happy song - it's genius.

Have you heard any music from Saddleback? I'm still waiting for my order to come in at JB HiFi, so I haven't heard his album but from what I've heard on FBi - i likey.

I like me some Gotye too.

If you like Nick Cave, take a look at Grinderman - his new band. You may not like them because they're nothing like the bad seeds. It's raw and ultra masculine. I'm going to go see them in a couple of weeks and I'm very excited.

This is the longest tag in the history of tags. I'm sorry.

i've always wanted a trio of cats named blackheart, zeromus and claudio

Science of Sleep may just BE the best movie ever made.

Uuh yeah, Phoenix would have fit in there with the rest, being French and sexy and all :)

It would, I think so too. I have a cousin who turns ... 13, I think, on that day as well.

Hi, friend. Did you give the Frenchy the mixtape?? : D

Awesome way to spend Wednesday. At least the mix tape part. :)

I would say 'minimalists rock' but on the whole they don't!

:) Everything at its own respective haste. Or something like that. Besides, your liner notes says a great lot already. Sonic Youth backwards on xylophone? Yeah, that IS sexy.

Wow, your ninja mix is solid. I'm glad I skipped school today so that I could rate mixtapes and eventually make them for myself.

A very, very belated welcome to the collective!! Awesome favorites (music artists).

I go to gigs every now and then. Mostly friend's bands. I actually live in the Blue Mountains (maybe you've heard of it...?) so I'm an hour out of Sydney, which makes it difficult to go out there at night. That combined with my dislike for sydney means I don't go there often.

I am looking forward to the Grinderman (supported by nick cave) concert and Timmy Rogers' new album launch though.

You're my hero now.

holy shit, that's incredible. Who made fun of you? What did they say?

You were ON stage with them? Is that what you meant? If so, you lucky bastard. I have a crush on Craig.
