ROAR and Troy the Snail

hey all, i'm new to this website (bet you get people posting that a lot, sorry!).

Just wanted to plug my friends band Troy the Snail, i see that a couple of you have already heard of them................. "roar" do i know you? its simon here.

anyway, Troy the Snail are a 4 piece pop/punk band from the punk capital of NZ, south auckland :P

anyway, they're great guys and play AMAZING music, its so catchy and infectious. so if you like blink 182, sum 41, mxpx, etc you'll love em!

They're playing at the masonic in Devonport TONIGHT!!! $5, show starts at 8. Playing with rimu, turnpike and others

sorry about the length! thanks!!!!

Forums: The Bar,

ur used to apologising about the length aren't u simon? :P

hahahaha nick, the bass player from Troy the snail, everyone!!!! and that pic next to his name is honestly what he looks like in real life.... it even has the little hat and everything hahaha

You guys should stop talking to yourselves. Nick is a retard who talks too much on stage. Someone should take his mic!

the nerves get to me sumtimes...i just dunno when to shut up....sue me.

I think i met the singer of Troy the Snail at that primal battle of the bands thing. Is he the amazingly good looking guy called Shayne?

hahaha yeah thats our shane ;)

Are you boys playing any time soon?

they dont have any shows anytime soon lined up that i know of, but will def let you know when i find out!

Thanks, tell them to get onto it, i want to know what they sound like.

hey vegas, troy the snail is playing this friday at the masonic in devonport with i think the sushi and the rabble. doors open at bout 8, first band on about 830. $5. hope to see you there!!!

ok, i dunno how i got so mixed up, i blame nick, but naywya, here are the REAL details for friday.... Troy the Snail playing with turnpike, jharpa, bored gordon, and poodlefaker at the crook in pakuranga, corner reeves rd and ti rakau dr, 9pm, $5 and r18. be there!! ;-D

How was the gig? Im guessing you meant the Friday that just passed.
Wish i could've made it but it was on the same night as the Cat Cat Cat album release party.
Hate it when that happens.

oh geez, it was not their best show, there were heaps of ppl there, but they all left after the band before Troy the Snail had played!!! yeah, wasnt the greatest, the guys were annoyed, but it happens eh :)

How unfortunate, where did they get the idea for the band name?

the two guitarists were at uni before they'd even started the band, and someone had drawn a snail on the desk and written troy the snail underneath. they laughed about it for like an hour :-P

I thought it would have to come from some kind of personal joke or something, when are they playing next hopefully i can actually make it to that one

um they're going in battle of the bands, i was just talking to their bass player on msn, but hes just buggered off!! otherwise send me an email or msn at simons_garden_show@hotmail.com and i'll email ya back when i find out :-)

What are the details for battle of the bands?
