Welcome Abbi. What sort of music do Our Lady Peace play. I have never heard of them before.

[Abbi]

Erm, not sure what youd call it really. Just really listenable rock I suppose. They are Canadian.

[Majimaune]

Listenable rock. I like it. I listen to a lot of unlistenable rock.

[Jackolsman]

Our Lady Peace is fantastic. Really soft at times then quick-to-engage choruses. It's rock with feeling and better than average lyrics.

I think I'm going to Interpol in October. They are coming to a place only about 14 hours drive away (the closest in any direction in this land-locked place I live in). I just feel as if I have got to go since they are probably my favorite group right now.

[Majimaune]

Oh yes just 14 hours. Not far at all. I can get from Sydney to Brisbane almost in that time.

[Quokka]

I'm going to severly tempt fate here and say YAY!

We missed out on tickets to the Powderfinger/ Silverchair tour but some friends have just found out they can't go, which is a shame but they've given us first choice at the tickets. Nothing definate until I have them in my hand but at this point we should be going to the Claremont Oval show on September 22nd .

[Majimaune]

And now is the time when I say: CAN I GO WITH YOU QUOKKA? PLEASE!!!! I missed out too but am going to try to win them off a radio station or something like that.

[Quokka]

Sorry Maj but in return for the ticket I would need a bed, preferably comfortable and with some sort of a cover, as I'll be sleeping in the backyard .

I'm going to see My Chemical Romance in Newcastle on the 11th of November.

My most memorable concert was seeing Guns 'n' Roses in paris 1992

[Majimaune]

Damn sorry Quokka I don't have those available for you right now.

[Sibeling]

I went to see Project Pitchfork last week. I wish I had known more of their songs so I could have sang (or screamed) along, but it was good anyway.

[Quokka]

DOH! I knew I was tempting fate by posting early......Two tickets have turned into one for Powderfinger/Silverchair, its wait and see at the moment but I could well be passing my ticket on to my little sister

On the bright side I ended up going to see The War of the Worlds stage show on the weekend. It's a great show as long as you know what to expect. It isn't so much a musical/stage show as it is a live performance of Jeff Wayne's original release. Jeff Wayne was conducting the whole thing which I didn't realise going in and the longer it went on the better the CGI for Richard Burton seemed.

It was the first time I've been at the venue for years and I have to say it still sucks in the worst possible way, the accoustics inside are shocking and it literally took us longer to park the car then it did to drive the 75km to the venue. Then we had to be bused back to the venue because we had to park so far away and at the end of the show, for a few thousand people lining up for the buses back to the carpark there was 1 staff member directing people! He seemed to just give up and walk away as people starting fighting over jumping the queue. Luckily we got on one of the earlier buses.

Still a good night out

[Majimaune]

There is a concert, Breakout '07, this Friday of Aussie rock for 12 to 17 year olds and its only $45 so I'm thinking of getting friends and going. Its got Grinspoon and Gyroscope. Too awesome bands. But then it has Little Birdy and a couple of others that I can't remember.

[Ryden]

Concerts are da bomb! I try and go to as many as I can and I've had the pleasure of seeing many of my favourite bands such as Dark Funeral, Satyricon, Dimmu Borgir, Immortal and 1349. It really takes music to the next level.

[Majimaune]

I can imagine that. I personally love live CD's but that would be nothing like the concert itself. I really need to get myself to one when I get a job so I have money to by a ticket.
