Grace. Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Haha, that has happened to me with SO many bands, and usually it's only within a couple of months of them touring! I'm learning to get on top of it all now though :P Well I started liking them when I got Viva la Vida, and then liked them more after delving into their back catalog a bit. I signed up to here literally the day after I saw them in Melbourne last year, in my crazy-obsessed post-concert state :P What other kind of stuff do you listen to?

tauiwi Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Another melbournian, nice. Welcome. It was terribly shit here today! And kudos for wanting to crack out the shorts! As soon as it gets to 18 here that's usually my calling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace. Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 It's funny, because 18 up here is bordering on slightly cool and therefore jeans weather (for me) :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauiwi Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 You guys are such late bloomers. I was on them at a rush of blood to the head but because I lived in nz for 12 years never got to see the band until last year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on them at a rush of blood to the head but because I lived in nz for 12 years never got to see the band until last year! Oh, I apologise for living in the middle of nowhere for the majority of my life and not having access (or not realising how to get access...) to the wonderful world of music I now know :lol: haha! same! like, this last year alone, i have gotten into Phoenix and Kasabian, both of which played at BDO... when i realised this, i was devastated i didnt go :P yeah, id have to say the real "clincher" song that got me, was Violet Hill... the whole VLV era i find just fantastic :D anything really, :P (just going through my itunes :P) All Time Low Augastana Birds Of Tokyo Cut Copy Eskimo Joe Jack's Mannequin Kasabian Lior Miami Horror Muse Pendulum Phoenix The Temper Trap just to name a few :P i chop and change all the time, and as long as its not too screamo (i can appreciate the music, but not the screaming :P) im happy to listen :) you? Phoenix didn't play at BDO, lol. I was there, saw Kasabian the night before BDO and have seen them again since, they're great :D I've got a pretty big list of the bands I like lol, but I like all the bands in your list (with the exception of Lior, All Time Low and Augastana, but I don't actually know them :P). It also changes, at the moment a few of my favourites are Foals, Two Door Cinema Club, Florence and the Machine, the Strokes, Mumford and Sons, Arcade Fire and Cloud Control :wacky: I only really started getting into music last year though.

deaths_friend Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 hi good to see that someone else started the election talk for me. the two major parties seem to have the exact same policies expect on the internet. labor wants super fast super expensive broadband and a super strict super stupid internet filter. while libs dont give a shit about either. i think im with labor on broadband but the filter idea pisses me off. it annoys me neither party cares much for climate change, gay rights and indigenous issues. since the Greens do to a certain degree care for those issues i think i might give them my vote in the senate. and dont get me started on the non-issues of boat people and over population. wht a fucking joke.

Cobalt Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Greens will give you ETS though which is pretty much a tax on absolutely everything OH HEY IT'S ANOTHER MELBOURNIAN *swoops upon the newcomer* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaths_friend Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Greens will give you ETS though which is pretty much a tax on absolutely everything greens will never get what they want cos they'll never have enough seats. but they can at least influence the major parties on certain things and hold the balance of power. theres nothing truly democratic about having the same 2 parties doing the same thing year after year. a 3rd major party (regardless of their stance) will make things fairer.

Grace. Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I tend to keep my political views to myself, it prevents conflict :wacky: Also, I generally just don't like politics.

deaths_friend Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 i dont think so. if they do it would be massively hypocritical as that was one of the main reasons they backstabbed Rudd. but knowing politicians anything can happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
