Beach House are playing in Melbourne while I am there, but it looks as though the venue is strictly R18 :\

I LOVE that cover too, heard it a few times over the last few days. Was considering buying the CD to get my hands on it (though the whole tracklisting looked pretty good)

 

Good my good vibes tickets on Wednesday. Not as excited as for Laneway, but still, WOO.

owderfinger get high for a fundraising gig

 

Powderfinger made Australian music history yesterday, becoming the first band to play a mid-air gig.

 

Three rows of seats were removed from the plane, giving a small but cosy 'stage' where the band set up amps. 140 fans had bid for seats on the flight, [paying up to $10,000 for a ticket, with $150,416.63 in total raised for the charities Yalari and StarKids.

 

ABC News Online reported that the set included My Happiness, Burn Your Name, Waiting For The Sun, Lost And Running, Sunsets and These Days.

 

Powderfinger continue their final Sunsets tour over the next few weeks with shows in Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney, before wrapping up in Brisbane on November 13.

 

Front man Bernard Fanning says that the band has been too busy to get nostalgic yet but hasn't ruled out getting a little emotional as the tour draws to an end.

 

"Maybe the last show might get to us a bit, but we're purely focused on trying to put on the best shows."

yay!

 

so has anyone tried the John Steel Singers debut? they made some great music on their EP's so expectations are fairly high.

Only what I've heard on Triple J today and in the past few months :P

I think the album comes out on Friday doesn't it?

I've seen them live a couple of times too, they put on a decent enough show. The horse heads are a little creepy though...

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82JZh3VyE2M]YouTube - Fall at your feet[/ame]

Oh I see what you did there :P

 

No worries! I'm undecided yet as to whether I'll get just that song or the whole compilation, the tracklisting doesn't look too bad!

seems like we're not the only ones who love this cover. it was most requested on super request tonight!

Haha, I was like, 'How do you know that before Super Request is even over??? :thinking:'

And then I realised you're an hour ahead of me. Way to ruin the surprise :P

 

But I'm glad Boy & Bear are getting the recognition they deserve!

 

NEW ZEALAND

Big Jet Plane, Clap Your Hands, Love Lost, Plans, and washintons's how to tame lions.

 

big jet plane is my favourite there but only by a tiny bit!

Plans! :heart::heart::heart: lol, a little overboard but I'm in love with tat song :D

 

Love Lost is an :awesome: song too :)

 

Big Jet Plane, great song as well :D

 

Not a big fan of Washington though. :\

I'd probably go for Love Lost in that list.

I won't be watching the ARIAs either, mostly because I don't have a TV.

I won't be wathcing ARIA's :( I have to study tonns, exams next day :\
