^^ i've decided i rather spend my $100 on going to laneway and seeing a whole variety of great bands who may go onto better things in the future, than seeing 3 guys who, lets admit despite their genius and brilliance, are well past their best.

new album is up [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ6arQ-qK34]YouTube- 01 ~ No One Loves Me & Neither Do I[/ame] not exactly the most exciting album.

i would encourage everyone (beatles fan or not) to read up on the history of the beatles because it is incredibly interesting. especially their time in Hamburg and their "Studio" Years. compulsory reading for any music fan. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles_in_Hamburg - start here and read through. its not very detailed but gives you a good overview.

this will most probably mean Jet will end up playing during the day or on a smaller stage. that must be a massive blow to the ego. lol.

^^ i was merely stating my opinion. and you know me personally. you know what im like with PJ haha:laugh3:

^^ i want them to do it the way i did it. chronological order. she's listening to please please me this week then we'll skip beatles for sale and with the beatles but keep a hard day's night. if, somehow she doesnt like any of it. i'll throw in my trump card, Abbey Road :)

this is very exciting but cmon could they pleeeeeeeeaaasssssseeeee hurry up! the anticipation is killing me. they should hire jack white, that should hurry up the process.

*currently in the process of converting another person to the beatles* wish me luck!! not that i need any. it's the beatles!!

does anybody know how long these shows have been going for? over 90mins or have they crossed 100mins? chili peppers have 9 albums under their belts yet they still never play more than 20 songs a night but the shows are over 2hrs every night. they make up the time with extended jamming and improvisation. how would muse fans feel about that? would most of you get bored watching the boys just jam? rather see more songs?

if only thom had named one of his kids Orange, that comment would of been incredibly witty. so for now we'll just settle for... Moses and Noah??............:\.............

at least it wont get worst video of the year. that honour will go to the boys from the arctic monkeys for their Cornerstone video.

^^ being an U2 fan, i dont expect you to agree.

so that adds to my list of must sees. Passion Pit Decoder Ring Sugar Army The Middle East and this is turning out to be more aussie than homebake!! powderfinger jet eskimo joe and hilltop hoods. easily the 4 biggest aussie bands of 2009.

mate correct me if i'm wrong. but didnt that album leak less than 24hrs ago? must be a really easy to digest concept album. and im interested to know why you put Trio in there also. cos despite not being a JM fan i really admired the Try! album but didnt know they were bringing out more stuff under that name.

i guess i might have exaggerated slightly with the intention of making a point more than anything else. i absolutely love The Fixer, its about the only song i pump up when im listening to the more commercial radio stations. on their S/T they sort of started developing that more upbeat sound and they've nailed it on this album and still sounded genuine and true. something imo U2 (and countless other bands who have been around for several decades) has failed to do over their last few albums.

this thread is meant to be pointless and not serious. dont turn it into some kinky fetish thread.

^^ are you talking about from Backspacer or their entire catalogue? cos The Fixer would hardly rank amongst the top 50 PJ songs. but then again i can see why you only like that song, its quite a difference vibe from them. you should check out songs from their last album which was self-titled, its got a similar feel to it.

i wish they would just add another 3 or 4 songs to their set. almost every band who have released 5 or more albums play 20+ song sets. even if they dont want to do more songs could they pleeeassseeee pleease please do Sing For Absolution.

Joshua Tree gets my vote, the first 5 songs on that album never cease to amaze me. Unforgettable Fire comes in at a close second.

^^ i think they cost $US18 each. should be uploaded onto their official website in a few weeks.

just heard from a person who was at the MTV performance and he said that the place looked a little empty with only the 10 000 ticket holders inside so before the show started they opened up part of "The Wall" and let in the people who were watching from the outside. Live8 was held at the same venue and they had no restrictions in place and it went very smoothly.

i agree with you. there's way too much crap being put on. that's why i recommend you listen to zan rowe and richard kingsmill, they play the best stuff. but i love sitting back on a weekend and listening to sarah howell's show for 4hrs without feeling the need to change the station even once.

they've announced 3 shows in sydney in mid-january playing some very very intimate venues as part of the annual Sydney Festival. unfortunately thats the one week of the summer i will be away so i will miss out on them :( hope to see them back here in the near future.
