yo fi, you've convinced me, can't speak for the rest of the posse (soft indeed)...ahhh back to the Prince again.....

TimmyG · Post by **TimmyG** » Tue Dec 14, 2004 9:27 pm

I'd go if I could afford it.

Fat freddy's drop are well worth checking out by the sounds of it...

Hey cammo - do you realise that image in your sig is like 687 kB in size? I know dialup users should get off their asses and get broadband now it's so cheap but jeez, you don't have to punish them

Edit: It is a very sick sig though

Motive · Post by **Motive** » Tue Dec 14, 2004 9:47 pm

i know i'm co-presenting this gig so my opinion isn't exactly objective - but I really can't recommend a band more than Fat Freddy's, and Shapeshifter is the perfect follow-up. I saw FFD play last year and it was amazing, so good I went back the next night and saw them again.
check http://www.fatfreddysdrop.com
and http://www.shapeshifter.co.nz

There's a pretty cool animation on the FFD site. But I wanna know what happens when they get into the rival gang's place!!!

Damn...

Shit

Wasn't sure if I would make it due to christmas party debauchery all afternoon, but to hear there is no chance is a little heartbreaking.

Oh well, no need to pace myself now.

Polecat · Post by **Polecat** » Fri Dec 17, 2004 10:25 am

getting excited about this! Today's looking great - send my accepted paper off to the journal (and the co-authors can suck it! it IS DONE!), go to drinks at 5.30 for my mate finishing her job, then pre-drinks for FFD and Shapeshifter, then a huge night of Kiwi tunes with Kiwis, then home to bed.

sat - pack & fly off for Xmas hols! woo!!

^^^ Thanks Fi but I was hoping there would be some at the door because I can't be sure what state I will be in (drinking in the sun all day is very dangerous). Damn shame they're only playing one gig in melbourne.

Shall see you tomorrow night at Hansy's or christmas night.

Lizkins · Post by **Lizkins** » Fri Dec 17, 2004 12:24 pm

Yeah i was kinda hoping on tickets being at the door too for the same reason, bother it!
