MorningAfterboy

MorningAfterboy said on the 12th Jan, 2009

I'm much more of a fan of the all-for-one and one-for-all business that comes with shows and festivals. I'm there for the music, ultimately. Friends can only enhance that a little.

HORSE The Band are so awesome, I was so sure they'd never make it out to australia and here they are for the 2nd time in twelve months. Certainly not to be missed! Worth it for their crazy antics alone.

haha how is that emo? i meant in the sense that so many bands that i want to see are playing at the same times with their sideshows that it seems financially better to just go and get my arse a soundwave ticket before it's too late.

Will be attending Alkaline Trio/Rival Schools/Saves the Day/Subways...who the fuck are the Subways anyways?

MorningAfterboy

MorningAfterboy said on the 27th Jan, 2009

The Subways are a three piece garage rock band from the U.K.
They had a couple of hits like Oh Yeah and Rock & Roll Queen a couple of years ago; and now they have a new record out.

I still think you're all crazy for missing out on Minus the Bear and Jaguar Love for $25.

Napoleon Solo

Napoleon Solo said on the 6th Feb, 2009

I have to somehow manage to get through Saves The Day, and then not lose all my shit during Rival Schools before I even here a single chord from A3.
I also wouldn't mind havin a go at attacking a bouncer with a pencil while the Subways play.

brittles

brittles said on the 6th Feb, 2009

Who are these 'The Subways'?

If you intend on losing your shit, please don't ask me to hold it for you as I intend to be drunk and tend to lose things....

Is there an evening where a bunch of you are going to meet up for drinks that isn't at one of these gigs? Or alternatively before one of the Metro gigs?

I'd be keen to meet up for some beers if a whole bunch of you are getting together.

Dexter Ramone

What has been the general consensus of gigs that everyone is going to? Propaghandi is probably the winner so far you'd think
