Melbourne Beats

FunkyJ

I'm going to see this on the 10th

Heaps excited!

FunkyJ

I've got friends over from Adelaide and friends at work going, and they've talked me into it.

I've never seen Q-tip before, so that's an added bonus. Pity he's clashing with Fat Boy Slim though.

If it was at the Bowl I wouldn't be going...

My CD collection was loosely grouped into genres, with stuff I liked the most first... but they're all packed into boxes at the moment. My record collection was loosely grouped into genres, with older stuff at the back of the boxes, kind of sorted into stuff I liked the best and stuff that sounded g...

Because it's got the word "dubstep" in the write up...

No prices or anything, but WOOT!

FunkyJ

Krome Melbourne have positions for testers.

FunkyJ

Rant to

1) My iPod breaking on xmas day (Yeah, fuck you too Jesus)
2) My iPod then being stolen from my luggage (Sucks to be them for getting a fucked iPod)

FunkyJ

Maybe I've missed it here, but these are GOLD!

Watch the posted video on YouTube.

FunkyJ

I hope they can sort out the sound problems for PE tonight.

I left second song in

- nearly an hour late and still having issues with the sound!

After seeing them in Adelaide and thoroughly enjoying it, I didn't want them tarnished by the shithouse job the Espy did.

FunkyJ

Ed Rush and Optical Hi-Fi Bar 2001 I was at that. Come to think about it, I wasn't at that. Couldn't have been at that one as I went to the Big Day Out in Melbourne in 2001. I did go see Ed Rush and Optical at the High Fi bar one year, probably earlier than that... maybe 97 or 98 - the first time t...

Ed Rush and Optical Hi-Fi Bar 2001 I was at that. Come over with a heap of Adelaide people. I was pretty messy... we all were :lol: My first rave was in 1993 in Adelaide, called Release. Funds went to Amnesty... so they said. It had Derrick May and HMC playing, I think. I went to see a band called ...

FunkyJ

Surprised Adelaide's got a decent festival this year...

www.eclipsetouring.com > Summer Break

FunkyJ

They're playing in Adelaide.

No, I'm get getting paid by the promoters, just very surprised about it all

FunkyJ

you failed to mention skream, benga and sub focus, fucks sake looks like a good gig! whats the promoters like, do they put on a good show, bring in good sound, catering and whats the park like? can we swim in a fountain or lake or something? Do I get on MBs and talk about the ache in my little toe?...

FunkyJ

FUCK!

I have to be a responsible work person tomorrow, so am unable to make this now

I was so keen too!

FunkyJ

Adelaide 28 December Summer Break Public Enemy, Aquasky, D-Bridge & Jenna G, Noisa, Chase & Status oh, and Midnight fuckanauts, Adam Pissland, and the Dude from Neighbours Karl Kennedy... but they're shit anyway. tickets are $85 Set times have no stupid clashes like Future does all the fucki...

FunkyJ

Sony are idiots. It's like they're able bodied runners in the disabled olympics, and yet they still can't win! They can't beat a broken system nor a pathetically retarded one. They banked all their money on bluray, and it's basically failed. It's minidisk all over again. They should have taken a wha...

FunkyJ

Yeah man, I read http://www.io9.com every day. I'm not so much into real mindbending hard far-future sci-fi, I like mine a little more grounded. Big fan of io9! I'm not as big a sci-fi fan as I used to be... As a kid I watched just about every sci-fi possible - Blakes 7, Space 1999, Original BSG, B...

FunkyJ

I've been out the last few thursdays in a row...

one more can't hurt

FunkyJ

FUCK I LOVE THIS TOWN!

Big the fuck up the music scene!

Last week it was Mark Ronson (albeit at a shitty venue) and Bloc Party, and this week I get to see Headless Chickens!

SO AWESOME!

OH MY GOD! Primal Scream as well!?!

I'm gonna be soooooo broke, but it's well worth it!

FunkyJ

Mark Ronson was awesome. The sun came out and everything just for him. FUCK YOU to all the people on ITM who were complaining about there being a band. Get a life, dipshits. Seriously, those pricks need to catch cancer and die in an aids fire. The rest of the party was shit. The bowl is a shit venue...

FunkyJ

It's at the Bowl isn't it?

I could set up 4 stages in my house and make it sound better...

FunkyJ

I only know one Wiley song... but it's damn good.

FunkyJ

I promised Chris I'd be there when he gave me a flyer on Saturday.

I've only been to basscamp a few tines (Fridays were always busy this year

) but had oodles of fun there on all occasions!

I'll keep my eyes peeled for your gig and come along (unless it's between Dec 21 and Dec 30, I'm back in Adel...

This was completely different to what I was expecting, but was still a rocking night.

I don't think "footy players" are to blame. What is to blame is pseudo-science like psychology. Psych and related "sciences" have convinced people that violence isn't normal, and absence of violence is. That is the first mistake. Violence is inherent in nature. The universe star...

mrj wrote:I've always wondered how such games are marketed in germany?

Most of them aren't.

Most WWII games get the equivalent of our Refused Classification.

Unlike Australia though, the Germans can drive for an hour, be in another country, and buy games there.

FunkyJ

I wouldn't say that footy is the problem, though. It's like saying shootings are caused by videogames. I think there is probably a culture within the football clubs that is absolutely packed to the hilt with testosterone and exascerbated by the fact that you have a bunch of blokes all hanging out t...

You can finish it in 6 hours :S

Thank god for that...

30 hours on Fable 2 and 60 hours on Fallout 3 mean I've got a pile of games to review and only a week to play them now

For that price, I think I could make it mine too

I wrote this on another forum... The issue is not pubs or clubs or even police - it's the media beatup about it. The Herald Sun, through the Victorian police union, have waged an unofficial war against Christine Nixon, and the myth of alcohol fueled violence is their number 1 attack. How come it's t...

Big ups my first year in Melbourne!

Big ups the few I've met from the boards - you're good people!

Don't get me wrong - Obama may yet be the greatest president ever, but already the horrid American rhetoric is spewing from the media - "shows anyone can be the president", "the American Dream is still alive", etc... Such a huge load of shit and this is what I have the biggest pr...

FunkyJ

easy to answer mate, lack of support! What do you mean "lack of support"? I only went twice, but it seemed pretty full both times, and from the photos that seemed the norm, and I can only imagine it getting better once summer gets underway! PS: I was in Adelaide this last weekend, otherwi...

A similar thing happened in Adelaide. All these apartments went up around the Rundle Street, and the main music pubs - the Austral, the Crown & Anchor and the Exeter - all had to sound proof, but STILL the residents complained. The owner of the Austral actually bought a apartment in the building...

Was awesome show.

Almost as good as Stevie!

I won't be able to make this!

Why is it the last one??

also really hate the whitlams :shudder: :hi5: I hate the Whitlams with a passion. And Something For Kate. I saw them at the BDO and they had the audacity to complain the crowd weren't awake. "Look alive Adelaide!" they said - I screamed back "We would if you weren't shit boring"...

FunkyJ

I'm pretty open minded when it comes to music. But I hate what people call electro nowadays. Presets are ok, but most of it just sucks. Tech Funk and it's predecessor Progressive Breaks. Actually anything with the prefix "progressive" - progressive rock, progressive breaks, progressive hou...
