One things for sure. Ph*kn come back or just remember where you came from & represent us no matter what cos you kiwi cats not krazy kangaroos who have such stooopid accents like jail birds.
The only familiar names to me were Pacifier and Fur Patrol and im that into them so i dont really care If they wana go over there thats up to them as long as they are livin out their music career
Degrees k. are comin back to nz anyway. they just went ova to record. they are doin a concert with 'falter' and 'moses and the mufflers' (two great bands that came 1st and second in canterbury reegionals) at 52 basset st 7.30 - 9.30 at the powerhouse. yeah i guess it really sux if they go overseas but its their choice if they wanna make sum moola. i would do it if i got the chance but i would come back to nz heaps to do tours and stuff cause the NZ MUSIC SCENE ROCKS!!!
EVERMORE ROCK!!! i don't mind they have gone to oz, i mean they still live here don't they? they can't help it that they can't make a mark on the nz music scene, no one really gives a shit about them. except me of course. i love evermore
Well, they're still Kiwis - All fucking Australia does is claims them as their own... After all, they did that with Split Enz, Dragon, Misex, Crowded House and Pacifier!!!
Joh... yeah but take Neil Finn out of Crowded House & what do you have??? Exactly!! Say no more eh. Anyone heard of that really cool KIWI band Powderfinger? Delta Goodrem?... yeah she's from Te Awamutu apparently ;)
whats up with being angry at bands for going overseas?It's an international community now,im overseas and i feel like a representative-atearoa is going off worldwide and everybody loves new zealand so lets export eh?i say i want all those bands to do well and set international standards for the young nz bands now.big ups bands all rocking it overseas...they should try and earn the money they deserve.bo
NA NO WAY! AUSSIE CANT HAV ANY OF THEM! I DONT EVEN KNOW WHO 1/2 OV EM ARE..ONLY PCIFIER AND FUR PATROL... BUT NO WAY THEY ALL ROCK!! THEY ALL 2 GOOD 4 AUSSIE!!
y would ya make a poll like this? u'r meant 2 nb supportin kiwi artisits..not givin em 2 aussie!
To all the NZers, the rock bands you send us we love. Alot of us know they come from New zealand (the home of rock). They have reallly promoted themselves by coming here. Especially Pacifier who Aussie digs!!!!!!!
ummm excuse me , they didnt exactly ' jump ship ' they just wanted to further their careers as musicians , i mean look at the population difference between australia and new zealand.....face it there is more oppurunity over in australia than there is in NZ so bands would naturally come here to better their musical careers.....its just like a lot of aussie bands go over to america to do the same thing because of population difference and larger audience/crowds so i mean fuck where would u rathe rplay ? in a small country or a bigger one ???? derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
sorry about the typos.....had a few cones , but i agree with u sisco , ppl respect that shit that they have taken the next step ! theres only so far u can go in one place then u have to move on , its like a bigger challenge , and life is all about challenges
Well I've been reading a few statements on this site, & I'm a muso in Oz, I moved here to better my future, coz the future NZ was offering was hard! I got here when I was 23 & have been here for a few years now, and I'm glad I came over here. I love my roots & proud of it, & miss my family but hey you had to know the right people when I was there, I searched for a career in singing and it was too dam hard, or I had to kiss arse & hell no that was'nt me!!, so now I've got my own band & have been working for 5yrs & I'm bloody enjoying it, it can be hard at times coz some ozzie's don't know what SOUL is all about (no disrespect to all ozzies) but neither do some other people from around the world, oz is just the start we leave for Norway late next year & they'll proberbly be people over there who don't get in touch with their soul, but that's cool, coz my horizon is looking pretty good, so to set all those straight who say Aussie can have them!! eat my shorts at least I got off my high horse and done something with my life, you can sit in your little box, and get angry at us, while we're out seeing the WORLD!
Geez there's a few dumb arses in here aye! don't you guys & girls get it yet!! unless you are going to pay our bills and help us survive in NZ shut your mouths you don't know what your talking bout.
What are ya! living outta mum & dad's pockets or what?
Lucifer_sam, TRAITOR, how bout our country let us down, when we needed them the most, and
Icajmo, come back for WHAT to represent negative people like you, how about standing by thoughs who matter, don't open your mouth unless you know what your talking about. Just coz I'm here in brizzy doe'snt mean I'm running round like a crazy kangaroo - dumb arse!!
Hey Personator, thanx for the vote of confidence and support, I know all of the kiwi bands here that bust their arses for a living, and some aussies don't give them a proper go at it, but we keep striving on for a better way of life, so Kia Ora to the our supporters & shame on you for thoughs who don't know what it's like to walk in our shoe's, man that's so dissapointing!
yes bon scott R.I.P ...fucken one of the legends of music.....and also very well said fingerprint , thats exactly what im saying bands goto aussie because there is a better chance of brightening their future as the size in population in australia is like 5 times that of nz i mean who wouldnt want to ??? unless u just want to stay in a small country and play small shows etc , it would just be like being in a band in a small town of like 500 people and only 20 people turn up to your gigs , then all of a sudden you move to auckland or wellington and there is thousands turning up at your gigs....i mean which would u preffer ? a lot of aussie bands also go over to america or england to do the same thing...and thats think of their careers and future ! some ppl are fucken dumb
what kind of state is kiwi music in when you are discuccing "Whatever, Australia can have them"
Luckily a great one, thanks to those who think big, not natter small
hahhaha all those bands suck dogs balls anyways , except for pacifier who are ok i spose , i saw them at perth big day out in 2001 and they werent too bad , but i cruised after about 3 songs to go check out some proper music lol , i mean im in australia , i aint even heard of any of them other bands cept ex.shihad so i mean what the fuck ? they musnt be doing very well here haha ! plus as i have said before its not as if a band ' turns its back on nz ' they are just moving somewhere else to better their caeers for fucks sake ! would u rather play gigs and shi in a country with bout 4 million people or would u rather go to one with about 20 million people , that way u have more chance of people buying your shit as more ppl would b into the genre of music u play....think about it for a minute pplz , u should b proud they have gone on to do better things just like when one of my fav bands from aus called SEGRESSION went to america to play , they made it pretty big and i was happy for them , didnt mean i was gonna call them traitors and shit i mean come on u fucken idiots
I actually don't want any of them to come back to NZ because I want them to become internationally recognised so that loads of record companies can say "Wow they originate from a place called New Zealand" and invade our shores and sign every great up and coming/established/undiscovered band/artist here and every muso in NZ can earn loads of money and plan for world domination and stop the bastardisation of music. We can all but dream.........
