Old thread:
the mongrels don't want to play like that, they just want to talk to the sheepfuxors

I am totally using "oddly shaped wall" as a euphemism for people's bits.

Hi mongrels. What's the etiquette re: leading someone on that you know likes you when you're kind of on the fence? Is it wrong to suggest doing stuff together because you get along knowing they might want more?

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 04:26 (twenty years ago)

Depends on if you think theres any chance of you becoming equally as interested in them. If theres no chance at all, then I'd say it's a bit mean.

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 04:31 (twenty years ago)

Let me see if I uderstand you correctly. You're currently sitting on the fence about showing this person your oddly shaped wall?

― ratty, Tuesday, 24 January 2006 04:33 (twenty years ago)

Yes, that's it exactly. The problem being that I'm a nice guy (YES REALLY) and I don't want to be all leading-onny.

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 04:36 (twenty years ago)

You can lead a woman to the oddly shaped wall, but you can't make her drink. Sorry.

― ratty, Tuesday, 24 January 2006 04:43 (twenty years ago)

Sigh no more, ladies, sigh nor more;
Men were deceivers ever;
One foot in sea and one on shore,
To one thing constant never;
Then sigh not so,
But let them go,
And be you blithe and bonny;
Converting all your sounds of woe
Into. Hey nonny, nonny.

Only sucky thing about coming home - forgetting about the Potatoes and Onions in one's pantry!

I'm real poor, but I'm up for a FAP soon.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 05:06 (twenty years ago)

ewww potatoes and onions smell pretty bad when they go rotten, in fact I can't quite decide which stink is worse.

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 05:10 (twenty years ago)

Potatoes are RANK when they go so off they create binjuice. Onions are just oniony and pervasive.

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 05:33 (twenty years ago)

this just in: onions "oniony"

― jim p. irrelevant (electricsound), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 05:35 (twenty years ago)

Let an onion go really really off and then get back to me Trayce :)

I keep reading the thread title as drinking and puking, drinking and puking. Which works, I guess.

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 06:53 (twenty years ago)

ah trayce. it clearly sez PIKING

nein Socken, do you like Pseudo Echo?

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 07:12 (twenty years ago)

no, i never cared much for them.

in jr high school, this one guy named dj used to argue that they were called ' the pseudo echo' and not just 'pseudo echo'.

what do you think?

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 07:36 (twenty years ago)

definitely no "the"

― jim p. irrelevant (electricsound), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 07:37 (twenty years ago)

hey, does 'nein Socken' mean 'no Socks'? if so, did you used to complain until you met a man with no Feet ('nein Feeten')?

― estela (estela), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 07:40 (twenty years ago)

Fuck I'm tired. NO! MUST STAY AWAKE or it'll be hell getting to school tomorrow.

It's great to be back in Melbourne, in the heat, listening to the Pogues.

heat? you don't know the half of it

― Michael B, Tuesday, 24 January 2006 07:50 (twenty years ago)

be careful what you wish for, your darks gods might kill you as a 'haha the trick's on you' way of sparing you from the weather, though maybe that's more something that leprechauns would do.

nein Socken does mean "no socks".
i do not choose socks.

i do not lack socks but i do not yearn for them.
i harbor no resentment towards the socked, those that choose socks.

or is it just machinations?

michael b, what are you doing in albury?

i am cooking dinner and have just discovered i am nein tomatoen, which is a blow.

for work reasons, estela. i just moved here sunday night. i'm staying at a hotel here with two other irish guys but it's on the company's bill and we should be moving into a house soon. v. quiet during the week here but apparently it gets a bit lively during the weekend and the uni is starting up here again soon.

melbournites, is there a FAPenning sat. week? i'd be on for that.

― Michael B, Tuesday, 24 January 2006 08:16 (twenty years ago)

Theres an okay irish pub at the end of dean street, forget what it's acutally called.

Some of the cafes up the other end are okay too. If Cafe Gryphon is still there you should pay it a visit.

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 08:26 (twenty years ago)

Seen on a sign in Albury:

"Welcome to Albury. Keep going, you're almost to Melbourne".

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 08:28 (twenty years ago)

Haha :) Thats like my dad's old saying "the only good thing that comes out of Melbourne is the Hume hwy"

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 08:31 (twenty years ago)

Conversely, on a sign in Wodonga:

"Welcome to Wodonga. Enjoy driving past us."

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 24 January 2006 08:35 (twenty years ago)

Nobody told my parents. I lived there for 13 years.

i thought i would get it, i thought i was ready.
maybe i'll try again on the next one.

MICHAEL B: do make sure you see Wodonga while you're there

EDWARD O: totally lead them on AS LONG AS YOU SAY "I dunno if I'm as interested as you, but what do you think of this oddly shaped wall?" beforehand, then it's totally okay. I can guarantee you from current experience that it will result in a maximum (MAX!) of two different girls crying at you in three days. possibly less, if you don't go to the same pub at the same time as both of them!

Oh dear, remember when everyone was unpatriotic, wanted a new flag, and thought Australia Day was a horrible day for a national holiday? I miss the days before the Howard Reich really took over.

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Thursday, 26 January 2006 04:08 (twenty years ago)

Jesus, what's right with being proud of your country? Do the crimes of the past completely invalidate the notion of celebrating your country as an idea?

Hell, the 'american style of patriotism' you guys refer to isn't even all that American. I've been in the US for some of the more patriotic holidays, in the midst of the Bible Belt and they aren't a PATCH on the flagwaving and hollering certain subsections of Europeans involve themself with on a regular basis.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 26 January 2006 05:06 (twenty years ago)

I'm usually very patriotic. But I don't really like the jingoistic nature of waving flags. And if a flag stands for a country, then I think burning it as a way of protesting something about the country you don't like is at least as valid as venerating the flag for all the things about the country you do like.

― edward o (edwardo), Thursday, 26 January 2006 05:07 (twenty years ago)

Maybe if we confronted the crimes of the past, then maybe I'd feel a little more patriotic.

Ditching a defaced British Blue Ensign for the Boxing Kangaroo would help too :P

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Thursday, 26 January 2006 05:16 (twenty years ago)

Actually fuckindammit I had a fantastic time! The Paladin was crammed to the gills with old geezers who used to do Abyss years ago, I saw SO MANY people I havent seen in ages. I wisely eschewed any actual goth gear and wore bowling shirt, tank top and skirt, was good and comfy.

Dom wore fishnet with a hawaiian shirt and somehow made it look GOOD. He da man. Me and Nick got very drunk and he kept disappearing on me.

They got rid of the mezanneine cage! haha no more showoff spot for you, skanky babygoth hos!

Mostly trad oldstyle goth/numetal like abyss always played; you know, yr sisters and yr siouxise amd yr rammstein and such, with a bit o' indie like teh pixies tossed in at earlier hours. Wasnt my cup of tea but I never liked goth music! I dont go for the music I go to catch up with ppls.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 January 2006 06:53 (twenty years ago)

Of course you don't like goth music Trayce.

gaz I'm contemplating taking up the bass again. I need to buy one first.

HAPPY INVASION DAY!

I am drinking vodka and making beef bourguingon for two beautiful, heavily tattooed women. I am in heaven.

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 06:55 (twenty years ago)

I actually am serious, i dont like it. I mean 80s new wave i do, yr bauhaus and wotnot, but sisters/nephs/mission/ebm stuff? meh.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 January 2006 06:56 (twenty years ago)

Argh, nobody is the original inhabitant of anywhere, we're all johnny-come-lately's due to wars, invasions and migrations. Now, I'm no fan of the treatment of the aboriginal people - hell, I wanna see some reconcilation and I wanna see it NOW - but the fact that shit happens shouldn't invalidate a day to celebrate a shared idea of a nation. Fark.

XPOST.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 26 January 2006 06:58 (twenty years ago)

Bullshit Trayce, you had EBM and Bauhaus and SoM and Ellen Alien playing that night at yours last year!

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 26 January 2006 06:59 (twenty years ago)

That is SO old skoool goth Trayce. The kids are all about Marilyn, Angelspit, NIN (still), Rammstein. I don't mind a bit of the ol' Rammstein. We went to a goth club last week. No-one over 22. There were many highlights, one of which was a goth chick doing a full-tilt interpretative dancing. Maaaaaaaagnificent.

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 06:59 (twenty years ago)

I never went goth clubbing and i kind of regret it. I was one of those floppyhaired nonces bopping around at Supermarket and later, Weekender, for you Melbourne people. God, Weekender got old - same old nocturnal pale beasties swapping between each other every week and spilling beer over me to 'Disco 2000'.

No wonder I'd drive home at 3am, being proto-emo to 'How Soon Is Now?'

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:05 (twenty years ago)

What EBM Mikey? I dont own any! Also, um, dude, Ellen Alien is not goth even remotely, I can assure you (no one I know in that scene would know who she was, let alone like that "techno shit").

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:11 (twenty years ago)

EMB = electonic body music. Hmmm, that would be Front 242, DAF, Nitzer Ebb, etc. Maybe a bit of Frank De Wulf also.

Well it's funny you should say that, because I recall hearing plenty of Smiths on the old skool goth dancefloor. Not to mention '100,000 Morrisseys', who was that, Mr Floppy?

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:13 (twenty years ago)

first para to Trayce, second to Mikey.

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:14 (twenty years ago)

did they play...

DANCE DER MUSSOLINI DANCE DER ADOLF HITLER

xp mikey that sounds OK, I'd fit in well with beer-spilling pale people I think.

― controversial buffalo stance (haitch), Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:15 (twenty years ago)

Klatsch mit die hande!
Und tanz der mussolini!

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:18 (twenty years ago)

See to me EBM is more yer Wolfsheim, Covenant, Apoptygma, vnv nation, and other such "its not trance, really - its goth! See how whiney the singing is! Ignore those glowsticks" music.

Which I really hate.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:19 (twenty years ago)

thank you, trayce, for the insight. but aren't sheepfuxxors welsh?

i've been accused of having an australian accent, but alas, i'm from southern california.

i will now depart your lovely thread.

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:38 (twenty years ago)

nein, Socken, Sie mussen hier bleiben! Southern California aaaaaaah such a lovely place.

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:46 (twenty years ago)

ah well Trayce in that case I fully understand. Apoptygma shocked me with how much they sucked, when I finall got to hear it. I didn't think it was possible for music to suck that much, and I love cheese. The more cheese the better. But this was cheese with a stab at profundity, ugh, brrrrr no, get behind me you humourless friendless twomblies.

I like my EBM slower and fatter. Like me, ha. It HAS to be sexual/sly and predatory, even if it is industrial, that is fundamental. It must assist one in one's nightclub hunt for fresh meat. That reminds me - the beef bourguignon needs my attention. Excuse me.

― ratty, Thursday, 26 January 2006 07:53 (twenty years ago)

Bah, I don't know. All that nonsense sounds the same to me.

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Thursday, 26 January 2006 09:43 (twenty years ago)

Lemme put it this way: I think I only recognised about half a dozen songs played last night. I havent even heard of half the bands some peeps I know go on about, let alone heard anything by em.

My audioscrobbler will show you I'm really an 80s new wave/nindie head of large proportions.

is lidell playing summer series kit?

no, he's playing at Marrickville Bowling Club with LIVE BAND for TEN BUCKS (allegedly, yet to be confirmed)

last night he did first song with Scott Saunders on kbds, then an hour or so of microphone-and-sampler [plus pre-recorded backing on two songs, and he had an organ which he also used twice only: played a couple of chords that he then cut up at the end of one song, and a bassline on another], then Saunders' band came back minus turntables but plus sax (so keys/sax/bass/drums) for the encore. he handed the mic down for choruses on Multiply, which I think was last

Well they don't pay togs, so it's sort of up to my model to pay me not them. I will certainly be keeping a few for my own portfolio, although I think the ones I hand over (50 shots starting clothed heading up to explicit) become their property entirely. I'm really just doing it as a feather in my cap kind of thing....and because it's hard to find chicks to disrobe for my photos for free.

As for me, mood-improvement plans short term include getting back into painting and drawing, doing a total spring clean overhaul of the house (even if it means I have to pay professionals to to some of the cleaning), and buying some new things like a fridge, couch, etc.

Well, it's my old cat that lives with my parents now since I didn't take her with me when I moved interstate. She's been gone four days.

After one of the cats where I live now, I don't need this. I don't even have any photos of her to remember her by, and it's gonna feel shit going up to visit the rents in April and not see my Matilda :(

― edward o (edwardo), Monday, 13 February 2006 05:35 (twenty years ago)

When my cat's brothercat went missing my flatmate (who owned him) was in hysterics. We found Eddie 3 days later with a broken leg, being looked after by the neighbours. He'd fallen out the kitchen window - 3 stories down. Amazing he didnt really hurt himself worse.

― Trayce (trayce), Monday, 13 February 2006 05:35 (twenty years ago)

The only time she's ever been missing more than a day was when she got a tick. My folks live up in tick country, there's a creek with bandicoots living there (natural host of ticks) a few hundred metres away. And she's such a house cat, too.

Apparently the new neighbours are weird too and don't like cats as they keep guinea pigs. (Two facts not related, mind).

― edward o (edwardo), Monday, 13 February 2006 05:41 (twenty years ago)

I remember when a cat of mine went missing when I was 12. Thought the poor kitty cat had gone forever...until a month or so later when the fucking thing turned up by the door like nothing had happened! So there's always hope.

If there's one "Live In..." song or album that I will never listen to, it's "Live In Ballarat".

BENDIGO GANGZ 4 LYFE!

God, that Kerry Packer doco is probably the most offensive programme I've ever seen on television.

"AUSTRALIA LOVED KERRY PACKER BECAUSE HE TOLD THOSE SOCIALIST LABOR SENATORS TO BUGGER OFF BECAUSE THEY WERE HUMOURLESS COMMUNISTS TRYING TO RUNDOWN THE GREAT AUSSIE HERO!!!!"

Ugh, not directly but I grew up in Canberra, the land of Summernats, so you know, it was just THERE on ver telly and such. Icky. Dudes in cars with chix on the cars with WOO LOOK AT MY TITS.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:16 (twenty years ago)

I guess Summernats is like Canberra's Mardi Gras. But there's no beads or decent food or like, anything.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:16 (twenty years ago)

Hahaha, we were discussing Summernats in my Event Operations class today and it mostly revolved around TITS. Since people in Tourism and Events are female, that's HAWT.

did i ever tell you yvonne and i once camped down there by the river and this wee hatchback car pulls up in the carpark and these 3 canberra teens get out set up their boombox and start dancing around it to the red hot chiilli peppers...and as we walk past i'm wearing a flanalette shirt and they turn to us and start grinning, thumbs up, beers aloft yelling "yo!

bear in mind i'm talking to this student last week and we find out we both live in woy woy - she says - "o yeah, actually i think i've seen you at the station...there aren't many middle aged guys live there that dress like 15 year olds"

!!!!!

she wants you f'real, obv.

― doctor wu-tang clan analog brothers (haitch), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:31 (twenty years ago)

This is where I should tell the story about how I went up to Mt Ainslie with work people and we ended up sat in someones car where these bogan girls in the next car (this is in a carpark natch) came over and sat in our car and proceeded to remove their tops and shout about lezzing up and um it all got stupid (no, I did not go for it with ugly bogan wimmins).

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:36 (twenty years ago)

I saw two girls licking pussy
Problem was, they were wearing K-Mart Stussy

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:45 (twenty years ago)

i think i once saw a porn that involved a car. it crashed and a voluptuous babe somehow fell out and her dress fell off somehow and the guy that discovered the crash saw her and he roted her.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:48 (twenty years ago)

That sounds not unlike a video I saw doing a St. John's First Aid course.

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Thursday, 16 February 2006 12:49 (twenty years ago)

yeah its an everyday training film really.

I used to have to go to the summernats with my Dad. If I get cancer from all the burning rubber fumes I had to breathe in I'll know who to blame.

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Thursday, 16 February 2006 13:02 (twenty years ago)

I find the summernats concept simultaneously intriguing and revolting. if I could drive I would've probably gone at some point in my youth.

― doctor wu-tang clan analog brothers (haitch), Thursday, 16 February 2006 13:23 (twenty years ago)

hurrah for friday

hey the tuggers got played on national youth radio station triple j last night. sweet.

― kit brash (kit brash), Thursday, 16 February 2006 23:42 (twenty years ago)

i can't decide whether to see the devastations tonight, love of diagrams, or neither and just get blotto

― electric sound of jim (and why not) (electricsound), Thursday, 16 February 2006 23:44 (twenty years ago)

nothing. preparing lesson plans. running around with kids. drinking. reading comics. cooking. more nothing.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Friday, 17 February 2006 00:00 (twenty years ago)

I was thinking of going to that devastations show too, haaaactually.

― doctor wu-tang clan analog brothers (haitch), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:14 (twenty years ago)

Hurray Ed! :D

I think I might not booze on tonight, seeing as I went a bit nuts last night (why I always do this on thursdays gah). Also I have a big weekend cleaning project planned.

― Trayce (trayce), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:16 (twenty years ago)

thursday was my only booze free night this week.

― electric sound of jim (and why not) (electricsound), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:16 (twenty years ago)

devastations show could be very interesting.. haven't seen rowly powly play in a loooong time. and i've heard that HTRK are totally shite which is always entertaining once.

― electric sound of jim (and why not) (electricsound), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:17 (twenty years ago)

i went to the pub after work last night and though i thought i was only slightly boozed, on my way home from the bus stop i somehow managed to walk headfirst into the corner of a roadsign and now i have a scabby red lump on my noggin. classy!

― gem (trisk), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:25 (twenty years ago)

ouch! were there comedy sound effects when it happened?

― electric sound of jim (and why not) (electricsound), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:28 (twenty years ago)

yes! it made the best comical clanging sound and i sort of bounced backwards. it was a bit of a shame no one was there to see it, it would have been pretty amusing sight.

― gem (trisk), Friday, 17 February 2006 03:31 (twenty years ago)

ow. I avoided falling over or hitting anything on the way to bed by falling asleep on the couch.

htrk are certainly... something. I tried to out-stare their singer the one time I saw them, and lost!

I have my best and favourite far-fetched ideas on a Saturday for some reason. Today's it is starting a wacky Tourism writings website. It could be a goer if I have the time between study and work...but I'm probably too lazy for all that.

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Saturday, 18 February 2006 04:56 (twenty years ago)

airbourne are the latest band who are set to get a vines/jet/wolfmother style push this year. I await it with trepidation. (though they are pretty funny at least.)

― WROFLMOTHER (haitch), Saturday, 18 February 2006 05:59 (twenty years ago)

i saw a wolfmother video on rage when i got home last night. they look like the fashion victim arts students at my uni what with the white man fros and the skinny leg jeans. they are a bit (very) shit aren't they.

― gem (trisk), Saturday, 18 February 2006 06:17 (twenty years ago)

CONFESSIONAL TIME

This cute chick asked me if I liked Wolfmother and I said "uh, yeah" because I thought she was single. Then I found it she wasn't and I've been upset ever since.

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Saturday, 18 February 2006 06:47 (twenty years ago)

probably lucky though. if you'd ended up dating her you might have had to actually listen to them as well as pretend to like them.

― gem (trisk), Saturday, 18 February 2006 06:48 (twenty years ago)

But I'm desperate enough.

― ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!! (ESTEBAN BUTTEZ~!!!), Saturday, 18 February 2006 06:55 (twenty years ago)

i'm pretty desperate too but i just could not bring myself to date someone that thought wolfmother was tops. where are your standards esteban. maybe a one nighter would be ok as you could avoid the wolfmother on a short term basis.

― gem (trisk), Saturday, 18 February 2006 06:58 (twenty years ago)

Girls who like Wolfmother would be lousy at teh sex. Boys who like Wolfmother would also be loudy at teh sex and would probably have hideously stupid hair as well. Bullets being dodged all around.

― fuckface bunnykins (edwardo), Saturday, 18 February 2006 07:08 (twenty years ago)

haha "loudy at teh sex". they would shout "SHE'S A WOMAN YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN" probably.

― WROFLMOTHER (haitch), Saturday, 18 February 2006 07:19 (twenty years ago)

in all seriousness, the singer dude would spend way too long primping and preening as well. i have limited patience for men with fussy hair.

― gem (trisk), Saturday, 18 February 2006 07:24 (twenty years ago)

Dsico as serious ahteest = k-snore

Moley's stuff really good! esp. one second-last or so in set with these kind of hard rounded pingy noises. BWOOP! early on I was thinking "hey this could be mixed into erm-is-it-Assassin by the Orb?" and then the very next one I thought "hey this could be mixed into Toxygene by the Orb!" These associations may cause our Mole grief, but I like it when the Orb do big bouncy pop basslines, and I liked these. In a dark room with lots of upright people I would have danced, but in the RSL opulence I remained sofa-bound and allowed my head and shoulders to non-ostentatiously mark enjoyment, in the time-honoured manner of my people (ie whitey).

People from Melbourne with video projections OK but unspectacular. First solo blokey fine. Two-person group who occasionally employed microphone also good but a) need to learn technique of flowing from one song into another and b) rapping bloke had quite good flow but zero strength of delivery, I recommend using filters on his voice live and not bringing him any higher in the mix.

Caesar salad = underwhelming.

― kit brash (kit brash), Monday, 20 February 2006 00:34 (twenty years ago)

excellent review! the rat needs to bring the dub roadshow to melbourne methinks.

― WROFLMOTHER (haitch), Monday, 20 February 2006 00:41 (twenty years ago)

I'm not in the least offended by those Orb associations! Many a happy day was spent on the balcony listening to Ultraworld and smoking recreational cigarettes back in 1992. I'm sure it affected me. But the biggest thing for me would have to be those funny Lee Perry tracks, especially the ones with the cows in them.

― ratty, Monday, 20 February 2006 00:50 (twenty years ago)

oh yeah also Jim, I met Jeremy - he was a nice guy. Their music is about as stoned as you can get! It's practically crawling around the carpet looking for discarded roaches.

― ratty, Monday, 20 February 2006 02:51 (twenty years ago)

Diplo sold out :(

Huzzah then Rattus! The tracks themselves did sound thoroughly dubby, not Orby, it was particularly a lightness of approach with the basslines on those two that reminded me. (Also probably because I downloaded two live bootlegs last weekend and listened to them during the week...)

― kit brash (kit brash), Monday, 20 February 2006 03:01 (twenty years ago)

After playing lots on the weekend without earplugs, I can't hear shit now either and have lots of high pitched buzzing. I need to invest in some of those pricey earplugs that cut out the volume, not the sound. And now my fingers are so blistered I can't write properly or use a fork!

Also, does anyone know much about solid-state sound recorders? It seems the better alternative to DAT and MiniDiscs, but still pricey at the mo'. I've been looking at these:

The first one looks good, but I rang an Aussie distributor and he said the RRP was $999!

Ratty, there's a YSI of my noise band up thread, I think you said you were interested?

Listening now - it was easy to download after all. Of course, I love it. It's not loud enuff though - power electronics is all about live volume and on-stage madness don't you think? Do you go crazy on stage, and does your audience go nutty too? You should make horrible drinks on stage and force people to drink them, stand on your head, lick the floor, etc.

― ratty, Tuesday, 21 February 2006 23:11 (twenty years ago)

I should explain that I can't turn it up to the appropriate volume without distrubing my long-suffering workmates.

― ratty, Tuesday, 21 February 2006 23:12 (twenty years ago)

It isn't loud enough, or bassy enough :( It was recorded on a crappy Walkman and is missing guitar. However, we get our spanking new Yamaha mixer in a week and then we can use a dedicated four-track.

― etc, Thursday, 23 February 2006 02:55 (twenty years ago)

I'm picturing something doomy and psychedelic, like Electric Wizard?

trayce, re the tinnitus, my experience is that if you ensure you're always listening to music in your environment (not at a loud level, at a quiet level), and when you go to sleep (or put the fan on), you quickly stop listening to the ringing. After about 2-3 months you can't really hear it unless you deliberately listen for it. It may be even that it's still there (hard to tell), but dat any rate it doesn't bother you any more.

― ratty, Thursday, 23 February 2006 03:04 (twenty years ago)

Nah esskay, I want to FAP wit y'all! I am just so monumentally fed up with being sick on and off so much of the time I want to smash things. How do people cope I ask you.

Moley: with my normal level ear ringing yeah that does help: I never notice its there. This current lot is worse, and maybe is is actually an ear infection I dunno but noise makes it *worse*, esp low bassy noise. It makes my whole skull vibrate and go WRRRRRRR. I've never had anything like it. Its making me feel like hurling.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 23 February 2006 03:09 (twenty years ago)

You can listen at http://www.myspace.com/batrider , but it's not as good as their live shows.

Firewitch, on the other hand, supported Electric Wizard when they came out.

Both are good bands, and it's free!

(I'm assuming they don't look as plastic and fakey as on the album covers but I suppose I could be completely wrong there. but knowing anything about the identities and personalities of the singers seems utterly beside the point for appreciating the records, so "hmm, plastic" is the sum total of my thinking upon viewing the sleeves.) still GIRLS ALOUD IN AUSTRALIA!!!!!?!? how has this not been blowing up ILM for weeks?

okay so there's a story on Girls Aloud in the MX, and apart from moronically falling into the trap of imagining that anything interesting about them has anything to do with THEM ("Harding has found sibling fealty through the group, something which had always eluded her in life," not to even think of mentioning "We're nothing like the Spice Girls, we're edgy!") I can now confirm that Nicola is indeed totally cute and Edward's enthusiasm is well-placed. (though now I'm home and looked in the What Will The Neighbours Say? booklet and if the red hair is real she was a FOOL to cover it up!)

GA played at a small venue along the road from my flat in NZ while I was in Tassie! tickets were going begging! no justice in the world, i swear.

does melbourne usually feel like somebody's turned a gigantic blowdryer on it? gaaah. um party at where i'm staying tonight (info on the rfi : melbourne thread; still undecided re: saturday night. WALKED out to prahran last night to sh4ke s0me act1on - took over an hour to do so, sob, & then had to queue up, & then the music sucked. big crowd & fancy venue/dj booth, tho. barman claimed the signature on my credit card was too blurry to serve me, the cvnt. probably just as well, w/beers being $7. & then the over-an-hour walk home from 3am. should've listened to youse!

i am glad youse young folk find joy in pop music. sadly i am a middle aged git who is now losing interest. slowly digging through early 80's german synth pop records to find a snatch of o my god combined with nostalgia cum.

i believe, it being friday, i will have a drink.

I bought vinyl tonight. my turntable is still fuct, but it is just so alluring on the shelf.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Friday, 24 February 2006 12:02 (twenty years ago)

I also bought that hawtin de9 mix thing, opened it, and the CD was all bubbled around the edges like it was delaminating or something. never seen anything like it. every copy in the shop had the same thing, except the one they were playing, so I got that off them instead.

― destroye's noobies (haitch), Friday, 24 February 2006 12:03 (twenty years ago)

hes a conceptual artist that hawtin - you like him?

um...how old are you again haitch? i have no good perspective on this. i think a wizard a true star is one of the greatest things in life. then again when i first heard the philly medley on side two it was the first black music i had ever "heard" (bear in mind this is australia in the 70's). it started a love affair i follow like a dweeb til this day.

do you ever get the feeling that your taste has sort of... i dunno, like diffused so much that when people say "what music are you into" you're paralysed when you try to give an answer? i think mine has. most of my friends had me pegged as "british indie lover", which was probably true at one time (1995? haha) but now i play them things and they just look at me funny. :(

that new hot chip album should be good. i am going to be good and not download any of it before i get it.

― destroye's noobies (haitch), Friday, 24 February 2006 13:08 (twenty years ago)

the song itself was not bad

why oh why does this cut copy promo feature the band playing guitar, live drums, and bass? when i doubt several of those instruments ever actually appeared on the track?

― electric sound of jim (and why not) (electricsound), Friday, 24 February 2006 13:10 (twenty years ago)

that arctic monkeys one where they affect the '70s bbc music show look is good. i watched it with the sound down though so i still haven't heard a note by them.

every other act is staggered so there's about fifteen minutes non-overlap, but Avalanches run 8:45-10 and HS run 8:45-9:45. Buh!

in other going-out news we got to the dancehall/soca night abt 70 minutes after doors, and there were three bouncers outside, two people on the door and THREE punters inside. and the DJ was playing lover's rock. so went instead to a drum'n'bass night where James De La Cruz (EX-Avalanches) came on and did a two-hour non-DNB set in the middle. In a pub across the road from work! Decks were set up on the pool table. And a bloke came out and played sax over one of the DJs.

― armalite roffle (haitch), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 10:59 (twenty years ago)

what's the lounge like as a, er, non-festival venue? what sort've soundsystem/crowd/&c? heard cut copy dj on sunday night - what sort've stuff does ajax play?

Just streetpress but it's a start.

Supposed to have a coffee table book coming out with another photographer mid-year. Meh, we'll see.

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 23:23 (twenty years ago)

Great stuff Kate, yay!

Love that photo too - interesting effect on it.

― Trayce (trayce), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 23:29 (twenty years ago)

Just two layers. One desaturated and contrast upped, other just the orig photo. Adjust the opacity to multiply and Bob's yer distant relative.

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Tuesday, 28 February 2006 23:35 (twenty years ago)

congrats kate! i would buy your coffee table book

We've got some photos to show you too soon Kate!

Not a million miles from what we do. You ripped off our Mastermind idea, watch us rip off your bathing belle thing! Two can play at that game. Literally, in the case of Mastermind.

― ratty, Wednesday, 1 March 2006 03:05 (twenty years ago)

Sounds interesting. Can't wait to see!

You fuckers don't go and see any bands, you just make up their names and the venues you see them at off the top of your heads. IT'S NOT FUCKEN IMPRESSING ANYONE.

― The Jaguar Who Sleeps At The Centre Of The World. (Mikey Bidness), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 06:49 (twenty years ago)

I'm going to go and see Fucked Dalek at the Vulvatarium tonight, five bucks entry, but none of you can come because you're not cool enough.

― The Jaguar Who Sleeps At The Centre Of The World. (Mikey Bidness), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 06:51 (twenty years ago)

For those interested (no-one), A band I'm in will be playing at the Tote (Collingwood) at 9pm tomorrow, and at the 'Pop Shop', 18 Corrs Lane, City on Saturday. The Saturday gig is with Go Genre Everything, who are good, so you should at least go to see them.

― S- (sgh), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 07:18 (twenty years ago)

mikey man i saw them last year heavy silicon band yeh? man i was sooo fuxxored up on ruskie vodka that i slept with the bass player

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 07:19 (twenty years ago)

Was he a slap bass player though thats what I want to know.

― Trayce (trayce), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 08:11 (twenty years ago)

When I play the bass, I don't so much slap it as spank it. Slap bass players are teh suxxor.

Yeah, that's right, half of quackstep duo Cunt Lizard, you know, on Spackaphonic Records?

― Mike Stuchbery (Mike Stuchbery), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 08:45 (twenty years ago)

Hahaha Mikey you know the real joke is that there really IS a heavy silicon scene in the ACT (not Sydney) - . Google "heavy silicon" and "alien headspace" and find out! Metal Pr0ng, though, is a complete fabrication.

No ma'am you did not. So... peg us with some j's.

― ratty, Wednesday, 1 March 2006 08:59 (twenty years ago)

etc I'm not sure about the lounge crowd to be honest, I only ever seem to go there when the kitchen's open! (which is a different vibe, obv.)

ajax is a fairly straight-up electro dude. here's the tracklist for recent mix of his (tiga did the other half).

sasha I might try and make it to the tote tomorrow night if I can keep my eyes open beyond 8-ish.

― armalite roffle (haitch), Wednesday, 1 March 2006 11:57 (twenty years ago)

hmm, saturday night popshop is definitely a possibility

just saw eight songs worth of raveonettes for free. awesome stuff.

ah, ta for the tracklist. hmmmn. black strobe for me, I think.

already booked for thursday seeing f4bulous d1amonds/HT RK/l0ve of d1agrams w/my least favourite can vocalist (after going to the queer film fest opening party as a +1; free champers!); wish i cld make yr thing Sasha! & saturday going w/people-i'm-staying-with to midn1ght juggern4uts.

also: d'ya reckon i shld buy an opshop boilersuit/coverall & tailor it?

― etc, Wednesday, 1 March 2006 14:10 (twenty years ago)

Yes!

We're in danger of slipping off the new answers page. I would like to bitch that there are too many people sharing my office now, particularly on Thursdays, when I am in all day. CRANKY FACE, etc. The good computer is thus taken and the arrow keys DO NOT WORK on this one. FEH.

― edward o (edwardo), Thursday, 2 March 2006 01:54 (twenty years ago)

Also I'm having chest pains, in the heart-al area. Should I be panicking?

― edward o (edwardo), Thursday, 2 March 2006 02:01 (twenty years ago)

any aches in left-side of body?

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Thursday, 2 March 2006 02:24 (twenty years ago)

No. It's just in the chest. Kind of stabby, but irregular in duration and frequency.

― edward o (edwardo), Thursday, 2 March 2006 02:26 (twenty years ago)

Dunno. If it feels worse than ordinary household heartburn it might be worth getting checked out.

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Thursday, 2 March 2006 02:31 (twenty years ago)

Stress can do it, but yeah get it checked - Nick and I have both had chest pains and while I reckoned his was smoking, he had an ECG and it was fine, stress can make the rib muscles spasm.

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 2 March 2006 02:59 (twenty years ago)

Argh. Not stress. I have a really, really massively important deadline tomorrow, plus a housewarming, a tournament and a mardi-gras piss-up this weekend so I CANNOT MISS SAID DEADLINE.

I read that as "peeing" and was all, like, they be takin' a cavalier attitude to hair care down in the ADL.

I read this and I thought that ADL was a euphemism for the oddly shaped wall area, hence "peeing" through it. On that full circle note, perhaps we should have an new thread eh?

― edward o (edwardo), Thursday, 2 March 2006 06:30 (twenty years ago)

Does ADL stand for Advanced Dick Length? :)

Yes, new thread, who will do the honours?

My god, Kate, that is just... I never thought I'd be the kind of guy who squeals about how amazing the colours on something are, but damn.. it's like a hallucination or something. Are you doing anything after Easter when I'm up in The Brisbane next?

― edward o (edwardo), Friday, 3 March 2006 14:32 (twenty years ago)

Don't think so! :)

― She's been known to sleep on piles of dry leaves... (papa november), Friday, 3 March 2006 14:33 (twenty years ago)

boy howdy, kate! like some pierre et gilles fantasia.

just got back from black strobe - um, full-on live band w/crazy hypnotic house drummer, keys/guitar/bass guy w/sisters of mercy t-shirt, & arnaud rocking the tru goth vox stylings + occasional laptop & keys excursions. fuck! all thee tracks, big ups their "chemical sweet girl" & "bright shining star" & esp. "the abwehr disco". was like a slayer show or something!

um haitch, if you were there, i was the guy up the front w/the teenage mutant ninja turtles "turtle weekend" tee w/the east-european-looking girl in a red dress. her g/f worked downstairs, ie free booze, hurrah. the dj on before black strobe played some sort've remix of "all i ever wanted" by the human league! secrets! didn't think anybody else loved that album!
