| _Griphin_ User Info... | Micky Christ are local, that's Garry's gig. Which ended up as Mudslinger, which ended up as The Remanes. AWT have been around for a lot of years too. Wierd, bands tend to get to a level then die, I think they don't really progress to a well known band on a label. Off hand, Meatlocker Seven I think have played for close to 10 years. - Tue, 24 Feb 2004 8:09pm | ||
| ML7Mike User Info... | Well.. minus all the time we didnt do anything for years on end. If only we had actually jammed nonstop for 10 years we'd be five years ahed of the game. :D Dizzy have been around a long time.. before Dizzy as My Neigbours Wife.. ML7 played their first show, before we even had a vocalist, in their basement. - Tue, 24 Feb 2004 8:13pm | ||
| Japanese Air Force User Info... | Hmm... this has made me think of all the Victoria bands I've played in that don't exist any more. There seems to be quite a few for the few years that I've lived here. :) ~JAF - Tue, 24 Feb 2004 9:29pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | Swetahogs and Betty Ford. Many boozed years. And the Hogs have been known to take the pot. So I've heard. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 3:51am | ||
| Troutbreath User Info... | It's true Broccoli, you might think I'm an older man (two cycles of the Chinese calender was it?) but actually I'm only 27 years old! It was lifestyle choices in my youth that led to this. Lifestyle choices like, going to bed early, getting up in the morning and going to school, eating all my vegetables, having respect for authority, at least one cold shower a day, polyester clothing and washing behind my ears. I ended up addicted to T.V., refined foods and high octane gasoline. It could have led to a career in law-enforcement or worse, running for public office. Luckily, rock and roll and King Bong saved me from a life of empty futility and premature aging. - Wed, 25 Feb 2004 10:23am | ||

| One Divided User Info... | Definately not the longest, but Limestone was together from April 1994 till about April 2003.. - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 10:55am | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | Yeah what happened to that? - Fri, 27 Feb 2004 10:58am | ||
| One Divided User Info... | We all wanted to take diferent directions.. Eric (vox/guitar) works on his on solo projects verying from industrial to folky stuff (it is very good I might add). Chris plays bass in Kincaide. And I (drums) now play guitar in Armchair Cynics.. - Sat, 28 Feb 2004 7:43am | ||
| Stairway To Hell User Info... | Limestone was such a good band. - Sun, 29 Feb 2004 7:21pm | ||
| Pooetry User Info... | Limestone seemed to be kind of popular circa Silverchair era. The one kid kind of looked like a miniversion of the Silverchair singer. That's what I always thought the attraction was to Limestone since I couldn't really tolerate their music. Different strokes for different folks. I was doing the door at an all ages show once like 8 years ago and one of the moms was blathering on to me about how they were about to get signed and shit. I don't know what ever happened to that. Maybe they just grew up and weren't kid-cute anymore. But I could be wrong, which is often the case. Griph- I guess Dave Harris is a band. A one man band. I don't know how long the Dusters portion of Dave Harris and the Dusters have been around. Do you? As far as I can pull out of my thick mug, I think nomeansno is the longest running in Victoria. Once again, I could be wrong. - Sun, 29 Feb 2004 11:07pm | ||
