2 hours? fark thats quite an achievment!, especially with the way rowan plays, fuck hes intense aye how the shit does he get so much energy? anyone know how the band are going with launchpad?
He gets his energy from the food he pulls out of rubbish bins.
The Rabble aren't doing good on launch pad at all. Both mums dollar and beat rootz are kicking their ass. But that's ok... the rabble rule anyway and will go very far anyway.
So anyway, after the Gomez gig I popped into Blend - that's a weird venue - I wandered up some stairs and all of a sudden I was peering down from a mezzanine on to some kind of weird time-bubble - there was an old-skool punk band playing and about 10 kids all moshing out all very authentic looking, but somehow in miniature. Honestly, this bunch of half-pints with mohawks and safety pins and tartan leggings and everything. Soooooo cute! Turned out to be The Rabble with (I assume) their real hard core followers. They're surprisingly good, although that whole Oi! Oi! Oi! thing's a bit beyond me. After the gig, punk-girl ran around hugging the band and her mates saying "see you on friday" and walked out with what I assume was a shopping bag full of her "normal" clothes. Mini-Rotten got out his (pretty flash) cellphone and texted someone.
Blend is a dance venue, very tidy; I imagine blood and puking wouldn't have been particularly welcome, but the band and fans were all very well-behaved.
All in all a very surreal experience, but I'd definitely do it again.
wtf heather what gives a fuck if charles (i'm assuming this is who you mean by mini-rotten) used a cell phone. serioulsly who gives a fuck, i really do fail to see how this changes the sound.. but grrrr if punk-girl who you mentioned hugged all te band then left.. fuck if that litle ho bag is who i think it is i fucken hate that liottle slag. she gives the rabs a bad name fuck i'd BOOYAKASHA her skinny ass
//serioulsly who gives a fuck, i really do fail to see how this changes the sound..
I never said it did. I mentioned it because it just added to the surreal feeling of the gig - the cellphone seemed at odds with the whole 80's timewarp. Now calm down dear...have a cookie.
oh fuck sorry heather
.. i get really fucking sick to death of all these cunts who are like " waa waa i hav no dick, the rabble are sooo commercial, chazz has a cellphone, how punk is that waa waaa theyre so hardcore they turn up to band practise in their family van wow how hardcore is that" and all that type of pathetic shit. sorry heaps i thought you was takin the piss.. but i repeat.. that girl needs infiniti bitchslaps
on the other hand- the rabble ARE pampered little middle class mamas boys who wanna be punkstars sooooo bad--- as long as they can keep the clothes & the hair- cos thats REAL punk- & er--- the musicll come later
1. I was there, that bad wasnt full of her normal clothes, they were her clothes for the weekend, she had been down at the mt or something to see the rabble the previous night. she is friends with the band although the rabble obviously are not allowed to have any friends because they would all be groupies, right?) she hugged her friends.
"mini rotten" wasnt chazz, chazz does have a cell but i think youre talking of someone else (whose name escapes me now, i only met him that night). Im at odds about why punks cant have cellfones. He has a job you know..
//Im at odds about why punks cant have cellfones. He has a job you know..
Wait, what are punks doing having jobs? As for the cellphone thing, I think if you actually read, just read, I do believe you'll find that heather was saying that she felt like it was the 1980s, when almost no one and certainly not punks, had cellphones, so it was like seeing someone wearing a wristwatch in 'Ben Hur'.
i was more refering to the shit that in general that the rabble is getting alot of latley, what dj booyah is saying... heather did give a pretty objective view of the gig tho
wow booack yu can be my friend.,. we can be like a team and browse these forums together and be like yea whoa man and set all the shit strait.. i like your stuff bo. your emily of rent boy fame, right?
the rabble are a goodun and put up with so much unneccesary poo, most of whih is way wrongly judged. eat ballbags you haters
hate is a strong word. i think i will go now, perhaps find a corner or dark alley where i can curl up into a ball and die. you mean prick you made me cry lie the baby i truely a
the rabble rock my socks off. not just my socks tho.

your daddy is asking. asking me to sit on him and bob up and down like i used to. ok i lied penny is askin. i saw you at massey high and you metioned something about rentboy in another topic
I'm with Heather. That really was one of the weirdest gigs I've ever been to. I've seen the rabble play a million times, know a lot of their followers and everything so that wasn't weird but I tell ya, seeing punks running round, jumping and pushing in a dance venue with nice seats and carpet and stuff is fucking weird.
I spent Sunday trying to decide if the night before was a dream or not.
whathe fuck? yeah hey im the "punk girl" youre referring to, couple o' questions, heather why cant i say goodbye to my mates? i saw them on friday too, i dont get it is that not punk enough for you? i dunno if im a half-pint at 5.7 ft and 17, but your call, also forgive me for carrying my clothes from the night before around with me, i like to change after wearing the same outfit for three days, especially when it took me 11 hours to hitch back up to aucks from tauranga that day. the idea that i change into different, "non-punk" clothes after a gig is too fuckin ridiculous to contemplate. cheers emily i'll catch you up next gig yeah? the blend gig was wierd, the place is a maze, far too many mirrors and glass things. dj-boo somethin who are you? do i know ya cos you obviously know me...an why do i give the rabble a bad name? you reckon im a "ho-bag" and need "infinite bitch-slaps" what the fuck did i do to deserve that? please explain...
oh, pipe down. I was explaining that the whole thing was a surreal experience, and I mentioned a bunch of things that would usually be perfectly normal but which caught my attention because it was such a weird atmosphere. My first glimpse was from above, and everything looked very small. I never intended at any point to imply that there was anything horribly wrong with anyone's clothes, comms technology, leaving etiquette, shopping bags, height or anything else. And I honestly can't believe that you took offence at my assumption that you might be carrying around spare clothes.
I already said I enjoyed the gig and I'd do it again. If you've got a problem, take it up with the girl that's swearing at you.
