hey- lets face it, the only reason why people play music is to shack up...isnt he in it for the ghetto bootie?
Andoru, i find your tone quite offensive.
you are obviously quite jealous that i have a cooler guitar than you.
i still think we would have beautiful babies though.
yous guys are impressive. I realise i might have already gushed quite enough last night, but i dont get to rave about bands ever so there.

woops that last comment was actually from me, julia.... hadnt logged on yet. silly me. I live with the man who calls himself emoviolence. he is pretty violent.
yo didasteradio! looking forward to the show at watkins next saturday, have people contacted you? is everything sorted?
from julia
ps you rock.
yeah, that gig will be awesome! cant wait to see this night creeps in action, represent my hamtown roots .
29th of may is when it is, with the deadline aswell. dont know where the venue is yet, but apparantly its in some hall somewhere...
theres a gig down at watkins bar on cuba st next saturday (24th) with batrider, Disasteradio!, The accelerants, and marystaple which will be a damn good night, i think it will cost about $7 dollars without an invite- i think you can get them out of blinks zine (a low hum). where theres a will, theres a way...
the setup will be improved this time, and everythings gonna be micd up. better.
thankyou heather, violet, geekboy etc for your inspiring analysis on the scene....
you seem to have an impressive knowledge of the science and psycology of rock'n'roll, but perhaps lack the awareness that one needs to discover that infact they are just talking out a hole in their head.
why dont you just resign to the fact that bands are going to play what they want to play instead of pleasing the likes of people like you .
stop hiding behind nzmusic to discuise the fact that you are just busy bodies wanting a good gossip.
red devil, your conclusion is accurate. Foiled.
and we wouldve gotten away with it too if it werent for you pesky kids. if you listen close enough actually, you can hear the origional versions of all 'our' songs.
check it out.
aaah yes. Daniel. Sorry it was all a bit vague there for a while.
Chords have been struck.
see you next time!
Sarah has the pinky, wish it was mine.
i would've upgraded sooner- had the right guitar found me, but unfortunately there has been no such magic yet.
who are you?
YO!
