If you could promote to death (not literally) one NZ band, singer or musician on the international stage, who would it be?
Likewise, if you could Twink out (literally) one NZ band, singer or musician who would it be?

Are any bands ever really good on Space?
Think of the lighting, sound, camerawork and lack of audience. I don't think many bands would ever seem outstandingly good in the Space format, some things (like music and comedy) just don't translate well onto TV - certain types of music especially. I think TLBT are probably a probably a band you'd have to see live to fully appriciate. Any comments from those who have seen them live?

it's hard to come across as being a really wicked live band when you are on space - the mix can be unpredictable and if you have ever been into the studio where it is filmed then you would probably understand how difficult it is to play well there...good on people who can tho, extra special talent...as for TLBT, I saw them last week...they were wicked.

I'm not very familiar with TLBT as they are a bit too rocky for my liking but anyways I didn't think there was anything wrong with there performance. And the other time they played they weren't bad either. They don't get the twink out from me either way.

id highlight elemeno p, laconic (phat as tauranga band) and stylus...........id twink rubicon (theyre songs are pointless and irritating, theyre only good one is energy levels which doesnt have paul singing it) and nesian mystik, all of theyre songs sound the same and are bashed too much

Cool. So what you're saying is that you want NZ music to sound just like American power-pop. Just what the world needs more of, I'm sure.

I was in two different states of mind when I did the above posts, the first one I was assuming the role of being a music snob and by the time the second post came around I felt I had to justify myself.
I know I don't have a right to choose who likes these bands.

I think if one independant band went on Most Wanted, they'd be sell-outs and would probably end up fading into obscurity (maybe...). But if a big group of bands started getting play on Most Wanted it would definatly make it more exciting to watch. One band can't change Most Wanted. But lots of bands combining can.

Now this is ironic, perhaps that 'dagger like pain' you are feeling is the same pain bands feel when people cut them and their music down with unconstructive brainless topics like this one. Wake up 'Jay' it doesnt matter if these people dont know you, I mean you have just agreed that Two Lane Black Top should be 'twinked out' yourself, do you know them? does it matter?
tut tut 'you shouldnt throw stones'.

sarcasm
/Sar"casm/, n. [F. sarcasme, L. sarcasmus, Gr. sarkasmo`s, from sarka`zein to tear flesh like dogs, to bite the lips in rage, to speak bitterly, to sneer, fr. sa`rx, sa`rkos, flesh.] A keen, reproachful expression; a satirical remark uttered with some degree of scorn or contempt; a taunt; a gibe; a cutting jest.
The point here being I wasn't really hurt at all by Ronalds remark. Bands shouldn't be hurt by remarks on this site, but take them with a grain of salt.
Granted, I didn't give a reason for wanting twink out TLBT. I use to like them. But I'm bored. Gimme something new.
'Emm' - I'm sure there are some bands you'd want to twink out. Stop acting the pacifist. We're not here to all feel the same.
