there is a band from avon lake, ohio called the dialtones too. the following taken from www.myspace.com/thedialtones - lookout!

We are a garage rock band from Avon Lake...honestly we have yet to have a gig (but will be getting one Jan. 7th @ Peabody's down under) We will have the details on this gig soon!We are all only 15 and hope to have a future in the music business

haha, yeah, I think the name debate is a bit more relevant when its within the same country though...and though I am very interesteded to see what hamiltons Dialtones are like, it reeks of Northeners not paying attention to what is happening in the South Island, when there has been a band using that name there for a fair while.

though, the same thing could be said for the Auckland vs Dunedin "Gladeyes".

haha. Maybe its time for me to finish that feature i started on choosing a band name.

Chch Dialtones @ Dux on Thursday night.
with the Undercurrents featuring the Legendry Ronald James no less.
Follow the Moose

shit really is there two gladeyes from nz? which is the one that came to australia a few months ago?

//Kitset in Dunedin when a Kitset in AKL formed.

Wasn't that the same band? Kitset moved to Auckland.

shit, now I've no idea if I half-heard the same band twice, or two different bands... which one's the Sifty Chris one?

//Wasn't that the same band? Kitset moved to Auckland.

nah, haha. Aucklands Kitset became Fang. The problem was realised when both bands applied to play the same music festival.

who shot?

hey pixels, you sound like youve been playing too much of that army game at the top o this page.
:)

have you noticed that little sniper guy can pretty much take out everyone on his own. try strafing him across the whole screen, he just blasts all the baddies. its like hes holding a super lazer death ray or some shit. if i was going to war, i'd want one of those guns for sure.

hey, yeah thats right bernina. do i know you? If you are in mlebourne, Batriders release gig at the northcote, which has held gigs for Steve Malkmus, Catpower, Ben Lee (Yuck!) aMagic Dirt and shit. Should be an ace one.

aha, bernina. i do know you. haha funny shit.
feels like a fool.

I thought auckland was inpenetrable. Im sure blink would "understandeded"

haha.

oh shit...edens bar... man. that was a mad night. haha.

hey hey.. replace royal with drunk...
yea go on blink...
was that the last time br played in auckland?
dont tell me that has been echoing ever since...
far out... so who are the other 3 that told br to fuck off?
some stupid shit slips out sometimes... especially after being punched in the back afew times...
i hold no grudge anyway...

shit... there were some more memorable tussles that weekend then the altercation outside edens bar. Sheesh... i've taken plenty of drunk boys on long tours around the country without any fights... man, but take those Batrider ladies around the place for a coupla shows and all hell breaks loose.

sleep is the new sleep

tomorrow is the new today

you can just imagine ben lee sitting around thinking about a name for that album.
"peace is the new war? nope too controversial... what about Blind is the new deaf? nope too trippy, what about Carrots are the new Peas?" and then screwing up paper after paper until he rose from his writers block and had an epiphany. "AWAKE IS THE NEW SLEEP!!!!"

go on elaborate.. who, when, how.

who owns these towns?

That's why Shihad named their album "Love is the New Hate". Because they hated Ben Lee's album title and the apathetic attitude it promotes... apparently
