ugh that always ends badly! mongrels, spring '09

It's an eternal see-saw, Jim:

http://melbourne-leader.whereilive.com.au/your-news/story/local-music-venues-under-threat/

here must be a cosmic law forbidding Melbourne and Sydney to have thriving live music scenes simultaneously.

interesting show at the toff on cup eve by the 'dream it downers', might be a reformed melbourne band of note i hear!

! srsly?

If is orig members and they do said alb will be there with buckets on.

not sure about material but it is OG lineup

OG with RA? that seems unlikely but you couldn't keep me away if that was the case

Mighty tempted... when tix onsale?

https://www.moshtix.com.au/record.asp?leventid=31184

Cant spit at $15 bucks! I should buy 2 tix regardless of wether i go or not. Hm.

i obtain much

so you got some? ok you convinced me

well i got one!

I'm umming and erring.. I dont like the way moshtix make you have to show up with the card you bought the tix with (as I'm not sure who'll come with me) but eh it cant be that diff to cnr.

purr-chased

appropriate sn too

lol

dittodone. Hopefully I'll actually show up lol.

should i shave off beard y/n

hmm

is this some 'fresh start' type of business or what

identity crisis + in need of change

also feeling v old

do it

You look fine without it, so I say give it a burl, you can always grow it back.

Also, summer.

Hm, I ate some pretty final-smelling chicken with my salad just now, it even smelled a bit weird when i cooked it last night... if I keel over spewing and dead make sure no one steals my piano.

^ elaborate pre-pike planning, kudos

haaaa

Wait, what? I have nothing to pike on! ;P

Kit you're luckyu you dont work with Liv anymore or I would send her to give you a proxy punching.

ooh the undies reunion does include mr andrew. AWWWWesome

tell her hi when you see her, and make a strange bug-eyed face at the baby

and pass on my regards, too

Hahaha will do.

Jim: I think they'll be doing OG hitz as well if the moshtix blurb is anything to go on: "Playing all their hits from albums such as Leaves Me Blind and Dream It Down this will be a night not to miss."

One of my Canby friends is having conniptives that I'm going to this.

niiice

i did get to see them a few times in '92/93, they were always great live

including at the hummingbirds' last show @ the central club

now i REALLY feel old

Yeah I saw them at least twice in those days m'self. Trying to remember where, now! POW maybe? Maybe even the ANU bar.

I am seeing the Undies at Homiebake. That plus Tumbleweed on the same day made ticket purchase a no-brainer. Undies were great back in April at The Toff, although it took them a while to warm up. Played all the "hitz" too.

all i wanna hear is lick the booooot

Weird selection of their shiz on emusic. None of the stuff I want rly. Just Rushall, Get to Notice and some random trax.

all the early stuff is prob still tied up to ...warners? what label were they on? they prob can't give a fuc getting that stuff out there.

polydor and yeah it's almost certainly tied up in major label red tape

Ah yeah bum. Wait but wasnt leaves me blind on 4ad?

yeah in the UK but polydor here

one of the few albums available on cd that i bothered getting on vinyl

there was bonus 45 see

Please, what is the operating premise behind these "mongrel" threads??

australians talk shit

we used to have sheepfuxors but they left

We have enbalkaned ourselves. Perhaps we should have an open day once a year for non-Australians or something.
