I'm off to see NOFX tonight, just down the road @ Camberwell..
I'm so excited, I feel 16 again, which is lucky cause it's an all ages show..

Fuckin NOFX!!! YEAH!

mecka · Post by **mecka** » Fri Feb 16, 2007 11:26 pm

YES!

I went to the gig tonight and I fucking loved it. Such a broad mix of songs from their albums, hilarious banter and wild antics from the crowd.

Highlights included the dudes who dived off the speaker stacks into the crowd, Fat Mike & Erik Melvin both trying to pick up a hat to wear whilst playing a song, the fat dude who got a runup to stagedive but then nobody caught him.

I screamed every word to every song they played.

They fuckin rocked, great mix of songs (I would have liked more early stuff, but all ages show..), leaning toward the more recent stuff....
What happen to that dude who jumped off the stack?
Looked like he ate shit...

BEST BAND IN THE WORLD....

Glad it rocked, Lindemon. One of my all-time favorites, but I haven't seen them in 7 years. Good to hear they can still rock the house. Tell me they played 'Bob' or at the very least, 'Kill All The White Man'.

they played bob... they played eat the meek too.

Funny, just listened to that the other day on my iPod!

Lindemon · Post by **Lindemon** » Wed Feb 21, 2007 10:47 pm

Some more is coming back to me now...
Perfect Govt., Scavenger type (a rockin version), Rancid's 'Radio', Bottles to the ground, Idiot son of an asshole, Louise, Dinosaurs, Lioleum, Bob, Brews, She's Nubs, Franco Unamerican, Sticken in my eye, Dropped the world..?

They were just great..

OK, so who is the next "best band in the world" touring soon?

Suicidal Tendencies?
Obituary?...

Suidical Tendancies "Institutionalized" is one of my all time favs.

Bob rules... prolly my fave song of theirs (though i'm not the diehard fan others are).

They said this never appeared on any album they released... without googling, when did this track get released and thru what medium?

It was released as part of the multimedia component included with War on Errorism.

And the next best band in the world to be touring is Unwritten Law.

If Sucidal were to come out again, I would be there with bells on.
Psycho Mike and the boys rocked my world before I even had pubes.
Awesome band.
I've been out of the loop - are they together again?

They're touring????
I've heard nothing about it.

'there's nuthin wrong with THIS brain!'

I love the irony of suicidal tendencies not dying.

NOt sure of the line up, but its fo' ral - check beat or impress.

We've got a small posse heading along.

OMFG. Apparantly NOFX played "The Decline" in its entirety at their Sydney show last night, with Lindsay McDougall (their gay Scottish punk mate also known as Leemo) filling in on guitar when Hefe had to play his trombone parts.

20 minute epic...

Where in Camberwell was this?

mecka · Post by **mecka** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 10:12 am

camberwell center

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 11:15 am

I've lived in Camberwell for a good 4 years - what/where is the Camberwell Centre?

mixtress · Post by **mixtress** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 11:26 am

Is it near the town hall??

I lived in Camberwell too, Judd street off Prospect Hill. Useful for munted Sunday morning visits to the market

Direkt · Post by **Direkt** » Fri Feb 23, 2007 11:42 am

I love Camberwell.

Best suburb in Melbourne, bar none. All it needs is a good bar...

Best cinema in Melbourne, one of my fave record stores, JB Hi-Fi, lots of nice places to eat and drink coffee, the market kicks ass... nice leafy, spacious suburb in a good location... Just sucks about the $$$ factor...

I don't think you could really put a punk rock band under the name "The best band in the world"... Maybe change it to "IMO The best band in the world" cos no punk rock band is ever going to be "The best band in the world"

Not really a fan of the ska-punk stuff, although I do/did like Rancid.
