Okay so maybe you should take Boy Band the way it was intended - basically an entire piss take at the pop industry. And as for Channel Z reforming, what makes you think that a format which has already been proven not to work - bad ratings which just got worse and worse and worse - will work now? And I highly doubt you will be able to afford a frequency, if and when they are available. Unless you choose to go low powered.
The New Zealand Government doesnt really have a lot of money to throw around, they're probably spending as much as they can afford to through the millions given to NZOA.
Realistically speaking bands will probably have to get sponsorship from elsewhere as the government is unlikely to cough up any more cash.
New Years Eve went off at Resolution in Whitianga! The best of New Zealand dance music, dj's and more. A wicked venue - Ohuka Farm, wicked music and a wicked crowd.
The best New Years I've had in a long time!
Yea man, i heard they were gonna pull the Powerstation down, is that true? That would be sad. It was such a mean concert, I'd say level with Blink - probly cos I thought Rubicon and Steriogram were better supports than wot wos at Blink. But still lots of little gurls there getting all angry at you wen yor jumping around cos u stand on their feet or woteva! it happens and if u cant handle - stand to the side or something!
Yea! Ever since last nite, I am officially in love with Steriogram! They just went off, and they are such nice guys as well!! Mean! You guys are the best! Love yas!
Yea!!! It was soooooooooooo good! It was great to see it so packed too! it felt like the floor was gonna collapse! It was mean as! Yea! I love Aucks!! Great set by all 3 bands! Good Charlotte rock!!
Yea, new Stellar* single, all it takes!! Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo good!! Wen they gona be performing agian, soon?? New album out later this year
Yay!! I got my ticket yesterday!! I agree, there is no point just sitting there listening - well for me anyway! Moshing and jumping around and going crazy is how i enjoy the music! Yayay! I cant wait!!
Yay! This is so great! I love moshing but I spose I'll probly grow out of it!!Man this concert is gonna be so mean!!
Oh my god!!! three of my fav bands at the same place, same time for $30!! This is a dream come true!! I cant wait!!! I am soooooooooooo excited, so so so so so so so so excited!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
That would be sooooooo mean if they do go. I heard they are giving out lil pottles of sunscreen and bottles of water at the door!! I am definitely there - i already got time off work!
ooooooooooooooooooh you guys!! i am sooooooooooooo jealous!!!!! oh well, maybe next time!!
Matt: did u go see the offspring concert in 99?? i t went off!! I want Korn to come again but like that will happen! At least we know that Rubicon and Steriogram and Blindspott and all the other awesome kiwi bands will probly be there!!
Oh!!!! I wanted to talk to Rubicon but the security guard said we had to leave! Dayum!! I am sooooo jealous!!!
As for BDO are Good Charlotte really going? That'll go off!! I heard that Tool might be going but I dont think so cos they were just here.
Wot really annoyed me about the teenyboppers was that the couldnt handle all the pushing etc that goes with being right at the front and they were getting a bit angus. If you cant handle it then stay out!!
As for the BDO i dunno - is it on the 18 of January?
I just have to say that last night I saw Rubicon at the henderson big top and they went off!!! It would have been sooooooo much betta without all the teenyboppers!! But anyways, you guys are awesome live and it was definitely worth the money!!! Oh yes and Jon was looking damn sexy as always!!!
I really like NZ music. I think it sounds as good as any otha music in the world. I wonder why we dont really succeed overseas????
I used to think that Channel Z was the best. That was in the good ol days wen Cam was on nites and Midday Matty was on during the day. Since Bomber has Come on nites, I've stopped listening. I can't stand him. As soon as I hear his voice I have to turn it off. I reeally dont like him!!!!!! I like Channel Z wen Bomber isnt on, since he's been on, I've been listening to my cd's heaps more!!
Hey, I was a huge Z listener back in the day, I loved it. But what advertisers are interested in - the big ones who have money - is ratings. Without ratings, how will Z get advertisers? Without advertisers how will Z pay for its upkeep? Last time I checked keeping a radio station going was not a cheap venture.
