sweet... this will be sooooo fun to them in a house basement! I still think you should ask joey to bring his band, and see if eleutheros can play. But thats just my suggestion. I will try to find a way to be there! - Thu, 27 Jul 2006 2:10am

yeah, it'll definitely be a sweet one... hopefully there's not TOO many people, though. but fuck, whatever, that's what a good basement show is about, right?

and i emailed eleutheros earlier, so we'll see if they want the spot. - Thu, 27 Jul 2006 2:19am

Who needs more than the Ripcordz & Likely Lads!? LL's were SO great last time I saw them.. that'll be so much fun.
And yeah, thats a beautiful thing them playing a basement, they must be stoked. It'll be packed but who cares, its the type of show where people will respect & cooperate... maybe let everyone take turns getting a peak at the bands, ha! - Thu, 27 Jul 2006 8:00pm

yeah the ripcordz and Likely lads and Joey Only are all great... But so is Eleutheros, they are my fav new band, I am so excited to see them on Aug 8 in Vic at the show Wolf and I are setting up for them and Self Rule.
I am also really excited to see this show. - Thu, 27 Jul 2006 8:06pm

have you already seen the lads as a three-piece, sati? i haven't. i'm interested to see how they're doing without me. and maybe i'll finally meet you at the show.

glad you're both excited--bring some friends! - Fri, 28 Jul 2006 4:40pm Edited: Fri, 28 Jul 2006 4:40pm

yeah, it's definitely not a great flyer... i just slapped it together on ms paint. but this one's mainly online promotion and word-of-mouth. i don't want it to get too big.

yeah the crack head just came up to you shaking and asked and promised to be back with it in 5 minutes, I think he said "I wont steal it I swear"... And yet you gave it to him...it must have been like taking a lighter from a babay... Only a day after you bought and payed for jam packages on the ferry... - Sat, 29 Jul 2006 4:07pm

Hey Alex, yup, I saw the likely lads a couple of weeks ago with the Remedials and they were both killer! LL's were really tight, and I liked the songs a lot. They kept cracking us up too.. a ton of fun, I'd see them again in a second.
(That'll show me for missing you/them over and over and over before.. even missed them when they played with karen foster who've been some of my favorites for years) - Mon, 31 Jul 2006 7:48pm

cool. it'll be weird to just watch the set instead of sing, but there's a good buzz going around about the them as a three-piece. should be fun. - Mon, 31 Jul 2006 8:26pm Edited: Mon, 31 Jul 2006 8:26pm

Heard loads of good things last night about this show! Not at all surprised.
Hope you had a good time Alex! NNB, did you come out for it? Still kicking myself cuz I couldn't make it, I lose. - Sat, 12 Aug 2006 1:56pm

yeah, the show was awesome. everyone was pretty respectful of the house, joey and his band had people singing and dancing, the lads kept up the energy, and the ripcordz blew everyone away.

i can't believe the neighbours didn't call the cops, though, the p.a. was massive, and everything was crazy loud. - Sat, 12 Aug 2006 3:24pm

Yeah, each person I ran into was going off about a different band!
Thats Leper's house, right? Well, who'd call the cops on them? No one who's met any of them, I bet.
Emily on the other hand........ I can think of about a half dozen people off the top of my head!

i was there.... ripcordz were rad, joey only was rad, and the best part about the likely lads: "what's better than winning the special olympics? not being left handed!" after the stupid left handed guitarist broke his second string - Tue, 29 Aug 2006 12:33pm
