White sky is so far the track of 2010. But, it is very different (faster and more electronic) compared to the version they played a long while ago.. like back in 2008...

Yeah, I love club empire!

holy shit.. a 3hr finale? EPIC

Ha I feel EXACTLY the same.

Contra given an 8/10 by NME. I'm surprised, I would have expected a 7. Keep in mind they have their debut an 8/10 too....

RIP Yossi's humour.

This is going to be FREAKING EPIC!!!!!!!!!! We are having a MASSIVE lost ep1 and finale ep parties here!

And from the debut album:

Another awesome UK Indie/Rock Band from Manchester. Brilliant first album, St Jude, and they have a second out this February. Brand new song to hit the radio 'You Overdid It Doll' is awesome. There's a free download of another new song on their website, http://www.thecourteeners.com/

Well, it'll just be a few stands.. I don't know what they had at the races. It's a good venue to have it in Melb, if the grass is green.....

Ebay may have a few copies, maybe next week?

Don't get me wrong, I still love the album - the last 3 songs just annoy me. Giving up the gun is completely teen-plastic-pop shit, the diplomat's son is decent calypso-pop for 3 mins, then it gets too long and repetitive, and Contra, a suitable opener, has too many annoying background noises that don't work in harmony with the melody...

California English is oddly interesting, one of my favourites. For me, after multiple listens, the first 7 songs are amazing, same quality as LP1.... then after that it goes to shit. They tried genres that just didn't work, and failed.

lol, but its not a competition.... Yeah, they usually have a good selection of food, well for Melbourne.. I guess Sydney would too.

Ha, I did V Festival from 12pm-10:30pm on 4 museli bars.

Ha no way, it goes from 11am-10pm, you NEED to eat, Trust me.

Yeah that's always going to be a problem. I have 5 (now 6) different groups going that I know, and there's no way everyone likes the same thing.. you just have to find a good balance, and plan before you go. Also, factor in a good time for dinner!

Yeah, I am not sure of the cloaking facilities. Hey grace, is your plan relatively different to mine? We should catch some acts together, when I am left on my own for liking too-alternative music lol...

Well, that may happen if you get to wait for muse early. TBH, I really want to see muse, but I am not standing through the Mars Volta just to get a spot. I'll get there for powderfinger, because I like them... and just appreciate any spot I get...

Oh, I was hoping for an earlier 2010 release.... so that they could come to Aus in late 2010. Looks like now that they may come in 2011.. although they didn't tour In Rainbows here which sucked!!!

Yeah, festivals take planning, and it is difficult to get good spots-generally you have to get there early.. and it doesnt help that orange and blue are SO FAR from green and purple stages... other than that, you should be ok... just wear casual clothes with shoes. It may be hot, so beach clothes are generally good, with shoes tho cos you def need those. Food and drink is expensive. you can take some in, a very small backpack is fine, you will get it checked for alcohol tho.. so take unopened water. They do have free water stations, like drinkng fountains and such. Merch is a couple of stands around the grounds.. just purchase like u would for a normal gig. Any other q's?

Yeah fair point grace. I dunno, maybe wear the merch over top? And 182, why do you feel like a noob?

Maybe. Best to go there early though. Especially considering it is sold out
