what music do you listen to?

[Timosity]

I mentioned Mr Bungle earlier... I want you all to buy their 1999 album "California" right now. It's awsome.

Yeah Trap, I love Mr Bungle, I haven't heard California, I haven't listened to Bungle since about 1996 although I did see them in about 1999 so I guess I've probably heard some of the stuff. It was a really cool gig too, it was in Las Naranjas home town just in a small pub, Mike Patton was just walking around the place too, I never realised how small the guy is.
It's pretty cool seeing some rich as fuk guy, just playing small gigs in local towns. makes you realise he's not just in it for the money and actually loves what he does.

I  also saw Fantomas last year or the year before, geez now it might even be the year before that, that gig was awsome, they are pretty similar to Bungle though.

Ah I forgot I like Primus too, I've seen them about 5 or 6 times, Awsome live.

Ministry, Awesome live

The Stray Cats, you gotta love that Rockabilly stuff, Brian Setzer is a legend guitar player, and singer. I can't believe a few years ago I saw the Brian Setzer Orchestra playing in that night club in Beverley hills 90210, that spun me out, and yes I watched that show, I graduated in 1993, the same year as them even though they were probably 10-20 years older than me at the time.

The Living End (AUS) They basically started as a Stray Cats Cover band, but I They write some pretty cool original stuff, They kick ass live, or did a few years ago.

Everyone go and see bands Live, heaps better than staying at home listening to them, but these days they cost a fking fortune

[Las Naranjas]

Live music is still cheap as hell in Newcastle.

my brother saw NoFX for $10 and Fanny's, if you remember that place.

[Timosity]

yeah Fanny's Is where I saw Bungle but I did also see them a few years before at the Cambridge.

Yeah Local bands are usually about 10 bucks, which is good, but even some in Sydney these days are 20 or 30.

International bands are damn expensive though, well large ones, Chili Peppers was aound 100, but that's the top of the scale, band like Reel Big Fish or the like cost about 30 or 40

but The Mad Caddies were about 10 - 15

For anyone reading this, This is in Australian dollars so it's probably cheaper than it sounds to Americans and Europeans

How much Do similar bands cost overseas?

[Trapezoid]

Heh.. I was just listening to a Sam and Max Disco mp3 I have around...  and just noticed the author. >=]

Yep. Me.

I have your MI2 techno medly, I remember downloading it from a 1337speak infested site.
shame Trap, shame.

Eh? I was unaware that there was a 1337 site carrying my music.
(oh well, that song's old now. Monkey Brain Soup for the Soul is far superior.)

Yeah Trap, I love Mr Bungle, I haven't heard California.

Well, you should go get it. It's more mature than their previous albums, and more carefully orchestrated (which is saying something, because their older work was already extremely well crafted.)

[Las Naranjas]

The site was copyright Niel Cigliera.

And it was from a link you posted at Mixnmojo :/

[Trapezoid]

Ohh... I think I know what you mean. Trapezoid's Music from Hell. Man, that was a while ago. The side menu had random capitalizations, like "mAIn pAgE". That could be mistaken for 1337.

[Las Naranjas]

Yeah, I was exaggerating the 1337 aspect.

[Helm]

I'll just save this again for the next time a thread of this type resurfaces.

What, no GWAR? I like my share of metal, but to me, nothing tops GWAR.

[Las Naranjas]

Didja need to quote?


My brother is the lead singer in Sum 41.

Well, not really, but they are identical, it's spooky. Especially since my brother dyed his hair black, then went to see them (At fanny's, for $10 yet again, with Unwritten Law as well), and the singer had done the same.

[Trapezoid]

Really, that's odd. I used to be black, then I turned white, and then Michael Jackson TOTALLY ripped me off.

[Pesty]

Didja need to quote?

Yes, because I'm so very, very evil. I was actually going to replace the entire quote with "a bazillion bands that aren't GWAR", but I forgot. I'm not going to bother editing it because, as previously stated, I'm evil.

Trap - Is your nose falling apart, causing you to go insane? Or is that something Michael Jackson stole from somebody else?

[BruisedWeasel]

Well, I guess it's finally time to come clean. I like Brian Adams. I listen to nothin but Brian Adams. I keep a doll with his photo over the face next to me when I sleep. My wet dreams are filled with frolicks along beaches leading up to Brain Adams singing for me. I suppose I should be ashamed. But I am not.

[Trapezoid]

Jacko lifted (no pun intended) the nose thing from the frigging Sphinx. If an ancient dirt clod statue isn't safe from Jacko's gimme-grabby offripping, who is?

[Evil]

for those of you who missed it... HELM LISTENS TO BRITNEY SPEARS!!! HAHAHAHA!!! i thought this day would never come... this is evil's longest thread btw...

[Helm]

I don't exactly listen to britney spears if you know what I mean *nudge nudge* *wink wink* *ejaculate ejaculate*

[NTL.]

I hate Britney.
