And also another gig lined up is at the bfm summer series next year in feb.

Yay! *sigh* oh bfm, how i love you.

yes. i did. i like the brown water song???!!( is that whats called?)

Yay i heard it nice work! it kinda sounded really far away and not really clear though but u guyz still kicked ass..... :-)

thanks, yeah i think it was all going through hughs mic. And that songs call "the creek".

'the creek'. cool! :)

No no no. I started to get all excited going "oh, hoorah, I shall see the checks at the bfm summer series".
But I cant make it... I'll be recovering from my third big day out in Aussie. (yay!)
I thought you were definately going to win the stage challenge. Any other gigs coming up, or a website perhaps?

stage challenge?!?!?!? randommmmmmmm I'm sure u mean 'rockquest' right? lol

hahahHAhaha hehe, yes, i meant rock quest. crap. I cant think straight, my mind is elsewhere.
But yes, the rockquest...not the stage challenge.

Im going to summer series in albert park!!! yay if anyone else is going c ya there then. :-) peace

hey guys, how did the lil chief thing go the other day?

you mean the gig we played out of the brunettes kitchen? it went pretty good, was lots of fun, and there were lots of cool people to hang out with. how did you hear bout that thing?

I was there while some things were being set up. I had to leave at 6 though. How many people did end up fitting in the kitchen? Jonathan thought he could fit 20.

so you were there? which one were you? im not sure how many people we got in, they all just stood around the doorway and stuff. i guess about 20.

Nah...what I meant was that I'd left before things started happening. I think I left around 6ish but I saw you guys play at Edens when I was working on the door. That was awesome!
When are you guys playing next?

and I missed the bfm breakfast thing because I was too hungover.

Next thing lined up for sure is the bfm summer series next year, 1st of feb.
