James Brown for Oxegen? 1145 17
Started by stroller
According to NME and Hot Press he's confirmed but there's no mention of him playing on the official site.
I checked out The T In The Park's (Oxegen's Scottish sister festival) website and the omens don't look good for this year. These bands are all confirmed to play at T In The Park and as a result they're all likely to play at Oxegen too;
Audioslave (Sh*t)
Beautiful South (Past it)
James Brown (Genius, Legend etc etc)
Embrace (Sh*t)
Foo Fighters (Couple of good tunes but a lot of middli...

Gonzo Journalism Suffers Again 1479 15
Started by Gar
No matter what your opinion is on the so-called gonzo journalists (eg. Lester Bangs), one thing is for certain, they broadened the limitations of fictional/factual writing. So today brings about a sad blow to this form of journalism, to the writers themselves and the mass population who read their work.
Acclaimed American writer Hunter S. Thompson has died in Colorado from a self-inflicted gunshot wound
Tragic news from Colorado where it emerged last night that legendary journalist-cum-aut...

Fun with I-Tunes (part 17) 1059 8
Started by Rev Jules
What do Carly Simon, Rufus Wainwright, Johnny Cash, Don Walser, Des O'Connor, Elvis Presley, Slim Whitman and Harry Belafonte have in common They have all recorded versions of 'Danny Boy'.
How do I know this Simple. I have just discovered the joys of the song search function on I-Tunes which coughs back out all available versions of a track you search for (although not all recorded versions since i-tunes only has access to its own library of songs which is not a complete record). So, Jac...

Started by El Duderino
This is a long shot I know, but would any of the cluas members know about any open mic nights worth checking out around Sydney. I've drawn a bit of a blank so far so if any other travelling musicians could help me out it would be much appreciated. Cheers

Who is going to this Olympia gig on the 19th? 4868 28
Started by flipperstired
Just heard that Jenny Lindfors has been added to the Jove gig in the Olympia. This is just a personal view on my musical taste but am starting to become more then a little impressed at the line up. A mate has also said that its being watched with caution from various industry heads to see if it will work in order to perhaps have future 'unsigned acts' shows.
so who is tagging along can it work

Some Kind of Monster 1514 4
Started by Vent My Spleen
Got a lend of Metalica's DVD diary of making this record. Truly essential viewing! I never would have believed that guys with some much money and and so little to worry about in the world could descend into such self-absorbed analysis and psychobabble. It is almost Spinal Tap in places. I even started to feel sorry for Lars Ulrich in places (despite being an anti file sharing mouthpiece).
Seriously, go treat yourselves.

I know there are a few fans of this genre on here. If I was going to start listening to country music where should I start. Listening to Johnny Cash over the last few weeks has me enthused.

A note to the fellow members: 1865 16
Started by Optimus
I've not been on this site for a while as I've been snowed under at work. And oh how I wish I had been here when the 'Are Moderators taking control', or whatever the hell it was called, thread was posted.
I am disgusted at how the mod's have been attacked. Calling them 'facist swines' is completely out of order, if not redundantly childish that you feel the need to use a cliché to express your 'feelings'. Just because they may seem like a faceless entity on that 'controls' the site, doesnt me...

Once Neglected But Now Adored 2155 22
Started by Gar
Ever buy an album out of hype or a review that you read and then ignore it after one, maybe two listens Then whenever that album is brought into a conversation, you frown at its inability to entertain or grab you. While it gathers dust in the darkened corner of your colelction, you eventually give it another chance. For some odd reason, you become charitable and allow the cd one last chance. And without you expecting it, it hits you like a thunderbolt. The quality of the album hooks you and you...

Has anyone tried the coke promotion, where you get a free song to download with every can purchased. I have to say its one of the better promotions I've seen from a company in a long time.
I have been trying to work the site all morning but I can't get past the 'Get down loading' button - its jammed on that page. Has anyone used the site succesfully

Just to set the scene indie music is very much my first love, radiohead, jeff buckley, interpol, Doves etc etc. However recently some of my american friends have been really pushing this hardcore emo stuff on me. Bands like Hopesfall, Poison the well, In Pieces, Alexisonfire, the bled, dillenger escape plan. It's taken a while (mainly due to difficulty understanding what they're screaming about) but it's actually startin to grow on me. Think its quite different and somewhat interesting.......Am ...
