Hurts. Requires Money. And is nerdy.

Been on a stoner rock binge for too long, time to mix it up abit.








Anyone rate the new mogwai album? Lil’ siss bought me the vinyl for my bday and I’m yet to give it a whirl. Waiting for it to be past middday before I crack a bottle, turn off the lights, shut some blinds and and indulge.

So so good. Just what I need to kick it up a gear!
I’m on the job site today because some tool project manager can’t organise trades properly. Grrrrrr..
Holy fuck I am glad I’m not a project manager, it’s a special kind of arsehole that puts their hand up for that gig.

Goodluck dude! Of course it’s always dramas on a friday hahaha

Quick dinner break...hit up nearby Indian. They are blasting the jams! Well their TV is playing Indian gansta rap style video clips. Deep in the hood. Main rapper is rocking a big gold chain + turban style head dress while making crip/blood style hand symbols. Beats are pretty phat.

Yeeah-eah-hup. Birdman are a favourite of mine. A band I was in used to warm up with "New Race" and/or their version of "You're Gonna Miss Me", I still love pushing the Marshall up a few extra notches, strapping on the Firebird and belting out the latter.

One of the most important Australian bands of the late 70s.
Seein them play at sydney uni on friday.
Will report back on how kind age has been, or not if the rose tinted glasses need to stay on?

Enjoy the gig, you're seeing royalty as far as I'm concerned.
Ah good, I’m not wasting my time then. Amazing band, but some of the gigs I’ve been to weren’t all that, just trading on the name and chargin a mint.

Not that this was an expensive gig, $50odd so not bad at all imo.

I'm going on the Saturday; have seen them a few times previously at the same venue, as well as the Factory and the '96 BDO gig of which you speak - always tops.

One of my favourite bands ever is V Spy V Spy, in my not-exactly-impartial opinion one of the country's most underrated outfits. Guitarist Michael Weiley passed away a couple of days ago so the Spies have been on high rotation all weekend. Must say I was pretty bummed, I met Mike a few times when a band I was in did a few gigs with a recent Spies lineup. Incredibly talented musician and a lovely fella. Live the Spies in their heyday were a sight and sound to behold and I was (errr, am....) absolutely obsessed with drummer Cliff Grigg's style. Another good one gone, thanks for the memories Mike!

So they want an Australian card? Funny how long that idea has been floating around for and (fortunately) still not gotten off the ground.

The 1996 big day out was sick.

The good old days...where you could buy a ticket at the gate! One of my school friends couldn't make it so we tried to sell his to key for him outside, couldn't even move it for a discount! RATM was a wild show, did you pass out before Zac's massive stage dive? After Porno for Pyros we hit the boiler room for the prodigy...that was fucking awesome.

Was a pretty good gig. The first support band killed it too, can’t remember their name.
Los Chicos, from Spain, they were sensational. The less said about the second band the better; the singer and the guitarist (in red) were two of the most annoying turds I've seen onstage in a long while.

I’ve seen them before at a festival and was mightily impressed,m. I had no idea they where supporting untill I got to the door, that was a pretty good surprise.

I didn’t mention them for a reason :confused: their set was......... “different”.
