Demon Of The Fall Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Double Jack: Flawless, a treat to watch every timeAKA the fox: Not really my thing but were certainly entertaining and had a good frontmanStrobing Goat: Heavy as a very heavy thing!!! really good.Double Jack should have won I think, but the crowd that AKA... brought in was overwhelming and I knew they would win.Double Jack should also get extra points for Del the drummer kicking some Moby look-alikes ass during Strobing Goat. and for having a classic convo with me about blaze in the toilet...highlight of the night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewan U.N.C.L.E. Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 I wanted strobing goat to win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash@TMB Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Best Band WonI'm glad the fox won. Their music is highly original, their bass player is fantastic, and they DO indeed have a great frontman. When their CD comes on our jukebox someone almost always asks "Flash - who is this playing?", not even realising that it's a local band. In fact we even had a couple of name people in the music business ask that question - and yes I passed on the details.But best of all they are a lovely bunch and a joy to work with.

Lawy Lawson:Attorney Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Originally posted by Laura@TMB:You should NEVER try and write this sentence again whilst under the affluence of incohol I think What worries me is the plural use of the noun "hardon". I mean, how many dicks can one guy have? I've been hearing promising things about aka the Fox. Good name for a band too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewan U.N.C.L.E. Posted April 27, 2004 Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 if you think about it though, how many hardons can a guy have? do they have to be at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Double Jack Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 Originally posted by Lester Burnham:Double Jack - boring boring boring Bit harsh I think. The best band on the night won though. I was very impressed with them, although they aren't really my cup of tea. Much as we aren't everyones either. Well done to AKA The Fox.

I'm not saying you're bad musicians, but I just haven't found you interesting... maybe it's just the set I saw, I dunno.All the best though.

Team Monkey Posted April 29, 2004 Report Share Posted April 29, 2004 Originally posted by Lester Burnham:Double Jack - boring boring boringA bit rich coming from someone who plays in the Real Shocks.Anyway as my old Granny used to say - "If everyone had the same tastes they'd all have married your Grandpa"Thought all three bands were excellant on the night. As is usually the case with these things the band who brought the best 'rent-a-crowd' won. I believe the band go on to take part in a Grand Final later in the year so the the bar owner obviously looked after his interests by awarding the result to the band with the biggest following on the night, (not trying to take anything away from aka the fox), thus ensuring another good return at a future date.It's all about selling beer at the end of the day.Strobing Goat's are definately worth a watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tina - have you ever seen me anywhere but the Moorings?Seriously though we were up partying with Breed 77, 209, and E106 till well into Monday morning, so I was soundo by 8pm. I'm surprised Frankie made it he was rubber at 6am. Fell over twice, couldn't even recognise his own home... So seeing as I missed it, how about a triumphant homecoming on Sunday night???I'll even buy you guys a round... You deserve it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
