Monday in Sydney, Wednesday in Newcastle.

222.

excellent, thank you.

Sunday night in some places in Sydney.

i can pick it up on sunday morn outside the gaelic

300!

The 2 page celebratory spread in this weeks issue pretty much sums it up, i reckon.

bring back OTS!

no, wait, don't!

I want to enter a competition in Brag - does anyone know the email address?
Wish me luck!

The websites looking good.

link?

According to the myspace its this

oh right

more a brag question, as someone just asked me...

the publisher of said streetpaper has engaged or married the model who's lucky not to be in the cell next to schappelle?...

filterfeed said about 3 months ago:

bring back OTS!

Bring back Town!

no live reviews this week, what a joke.

ph fuck i thought i could brag about someting in this thread

ok.......
if i was really cool i could say i shagged bon jovi.. but i would be lieing... doh!

Just go and shag Jon Stevens. He's the next best thing down under.

I'm sure he'll have you.

i guess no one reads it either, maybe thats why.

the live reviews are always shit in Brag anyway. It's always the most obvious high-profile acts covered by an invariably frothing-at-the-mouth writer.

least its interacting with the city it claims to be part of.

the magazine could've been written in broome.

They've been particularly awful recently! Someone told me on the weekend, they recently reviewed the Mess Hall, and mentioned how they must have been inspired by DZ!!! And for anyone who's been lucky enough to see Jono Boulet... HUSKER DU??????!!!!????

Seriously, this is bordering on the point where the editor should be arrested.

No reviews this week.

shhh....

i'm not picking up brag anymore. not because of problems with the content, but the ink/paper stock they use. is it just me or does it leave anyone else with extra mucky hands? i'm trying to eat lunch when i read. i don't need my hands all sooty. even the outside glossy page does it!

*Seriously, this is bordering on the point where the editor should be arrested. *

Racist slurs in gig reviews are AOK, sez editor this week (misspelling and childish phrasing also fine):
**
''There certainly were a fair few shirtless ADFA guys, muzzas and an overabundance of fluouro and matchy matchy groups...''** - from Foreshore Festival review.

what's adfa? matchy matchy? i don't follow.

ADFA would be army trainees, the gig was in Canberra. I'm bemused on ''matchy matchy'' too.

is it just me or does it leave anyone else with extra mucky hands?

Happens to me too, but with the Drum as well. Perhaps I have extra absorbant hands or something.

Absorbent.

So is ''muzzas'' a derogatory term for Muslims?

Nah, it's more generic racism than that.

brag needs an editor

here's the seek listing

(kirsty brown has taken another job)

I thought the Brag was meant to be ''Sydney's Hottest Street Press'' - but the listing in seek say they're ''Sydney's Coolest Street Press''.

They really should work out who they want to be, otherwise they might have trouble attracting quality applicants.

where's Kirsty off to? somewhere exciting?

they are both hot and cool, scallywag

lips i believe she is off to work in mainstream media! radio, i think?

well, i've been looking for proper job...

but maybe not.

you said 'proper'

oh, im so glad someone else did that gag. thanks nons.

They really should work out who they want to be, otherwise they might have trouble attracting quality applicants.

Perhaps they're looking for someone in the middle. Someone lukewarm.

I miss their 'Single of the Weak' reviews. They used to be a real laugh.
