| the M awards!! | Last night Monday Magazine had the first anual M awards! The event was at Legends and a very good cross section of Victoria's arts community was there. Bill Hilly band walked away with best local band and best local show..although that was because many of Vic's best bands were not nominated because people just did not know about the M's..next year should be great! hope to see you all there! - Wed, 26 Feb 2003 1:23pm | ||
| Anonymous | I guess that means that the main Monday readers (or just the ones that send in their ballots) are middle aged "cultured" yuppies. - Wed, 26 Feb 2003 3:11pm | ||
| Anonymous | Yeah right, like there are so many BMWs stopping in front of those yellow boxes. It may be hard for you Meatalheads to understand but the Bill Hilly Band just might be worthy of the award. - Wed, 26 Feb 2003 3:29pm | ||
| Anonymous | The bill hilly bands are better musicians than any of the punk/metal/rock acts in this town. Power chords are so last century. - Wed, 26 Feb 2003 6:56pm | ||
| Anonymous | oh god sooooooo last century? i nearly just vomited bill hilly band? what a neato nifty clever name - Wed, 26 Feb 2003 7:43pm | ||
| Sue | I'm a bit of a metal girl myself, but I saw the Bill Hilly Band for the first time at Folkfest last year and they were a ton of fun. They had the crowd going from the first song out. Power to 'em. - Wed, 26 Feb 2003 8:23pm | ||
| Anonymous | rocking is that little feeling that you get when you think you're really cool because you like some band that added distortion to the blues. You probably vomited because deep down inside you know that most of the "rock you love" is just reguritated blues and sooner than you think you're going to be a forty-year-old balding man/woman with a beer gut hanging out at blues jams and talking about how unknown Joe-the-also-balding-blues-musician is rippin' it up tonight. The Bill Hilly Band can play better than anyone you'd care to name, anyone! minus a few musicians who have also evolved beyond rock. But don't you worry about that, you go back to vomiting, rock on. - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 12:33pm | ||
| Jo Fancy | One could easily argue that most blues is just regurgitation of other blues. I've got my fair share of devoted space in the collection, but to say that it is the be all & end all is outrageously obtuse & poorly thought out at that. "evolved beyond rock"- there is only one creature that has evolved beyond rock & that is Avril Levigne. You are not Avril so fuck yourself. Much respect for the Bill Hilly band. - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 12:50pm | ||
| Anonymous | Yeah Jo I was so serious. PLease can you lay out the particulars of your argument again, I really cared. - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 2:23pm | ||
| Anonymous | but I agree with you about Avril - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 2:26pm | ||
| c | ...you shady motherfucker. - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 7:41pm | ||
| ML7Mike | Didnt the BillHilly Band get nominated for a Juno or something similar too? - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 10:02pm | ||
| Lurker User Info... | That Fancy guy is one shady motherfucker. Not the type of fellow you'd want to encounter in a dark alley. - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 10:06pm | ||
| Anonymous | oh geeze! evolve beyond rock? ill go back to my cave and beat my woman i guess..... seeing as im so far behind the times... do these guys have a website? - Thu, 27 Feb 2003 11:20pm | ||
| Matte Black | What were the people at Monday thinking when they decided to name their awards show the "M" awards. I think I remember them slagging the mpower awards last year, so it's not like they didn't know that this might cause confusion.... - Fri, 28 Feb 2003 12:03am | ||
| Anonymous | the Bills were indeed nominated for a juno everybody cross your fingers for 'em! - Fri, 28 Feb 2003 4:31am | ||
