ALPS-NEEDLETAIL-MOUNTAINS-OLD BAR

alps back in town already? PHWOAR

yes! it may well be in fact the last time he ever plays in melbourne. He is going to US shortly after and then perhaps roaming the world as a vagabond. Jack Kerouac would be proud.

ALSO! for the vegans, vegetarians, people who love good food and underage people we will be doing an acoustic dinner time set at spoon bar (lentil as africa) before this gig, so come along for tea, we will start at 6pm and the line up will be:

alps
couldve moved mountains (solo set)
fulton girls club

it will be free entry also
lentil as africa - 328 Victoria Street, Brunswick (just off sydney rd)

So come along and have some dinner and love then come get drunk with us at old bar. it will be fantastic.

noice

cool

just got the ALPS ep the other weekend and now i'm his new biggest fan

what's this lentil as africa place?? i never heard of it

its a new lentil as anything, that opened a couple of months ago in brunswick (see address for more details) Instead of having a menu like the other lentil as anythings however, they employ local african people to come in and cook 1 delicious (vegan) african meal which they serve for the whole night and you in turn pay as much as you feel like for the meal (they base payment on personal responsibility/karma) its an awesome place!

come!

sounds good! i will!

a bit more casual than the other lentil in brunswick, perhaps? that place has started gettiing some serious attitude about their "pay what you feel" policy. pay what you feel (but if we're not happy with what you pay we will scoff/sneer at you)

yeah totally, i went there (sydney rd) the other day and they totally like stand over you and put all this pressure on you. this place is really awesome, run by volunteers in this nice little cafe/bar with like nintendos to play while youre waiting for meal etc. its heaps nice and really friendly.

ahh, cool...

uptight hippies are the worst kind of hippies

nintendos!

yessiree.

mmm lentils.... cool poster too!

ta! was inspired by that optical illusions thread junkie made the other week hah

this will infact be probably the second last show alps plays in australia for a looooong time.
so get in while you can!

nintendos...what sort of nintendos....nes, super, 64.......?

i think its a new console called 'fuck you mic'

also, everyone refresh this page, i changed the poster cos it had wrong info on it

awww bumpz

LAST ALPS OZ SHOWS. ALL STOCK MUST GO. GET HIM WHILE HES HOT.

.

I love the 'fuck you mic.' But I'll bring my 'your dead cunt' to the show, and let you have a go.

Last time we played at the Old Bar we threw playing cards at the audience.

please explain sheppo?

There's not much to it, I bought a couple of packs before the show and threw them into the audience before we started playing. We also had sparklers and Europe's "The Final Countdown" playing. Very GOB.

instead of playing cards Id like to use buckets of paint.

How about dead doves?

or kittens with broken necks?

Holy fuck aaron you sick bastard!!!111

I'm looking forward to this vegan styled event, shall find some party attire and live it up!

nah but seriously, paint would be fuck load o' fun

BE STILL CAT!

kittens and paint? nah

we could throw feral cats covered in wet paint and watch them attack people whilst also ruining their clothes

no one ever takes me seriously

it might be because youre a total fucking cunt mic?

bwahahahaha - I dont think anyone reading this post would see it that way.

except maybe sheppo

if only they knew

this friday!

this is also gonna be the launch for the new Alps 12" GET EM WHILE THEYRE RED HOT!

what time you guys on pete?

I'd be keen to see you guys with a decent PA, well, better than that house show anyways..

ALPS was that dude playing keys and stuff right?

We're on second I believe, though as to what time that is, I think it'll depend on when ALPS and CMM finish at Lentil as Africa before making their way over. ALPS is indeed that dude playing keys and stuff, and hopefully pneumonia-free this time!

I wish I could make this. Three great bands/artists of great people.

Except that mountains nonsense. Aaron steals his songs from buskers. Trust me.

haha can someone tell me what pelican said in here before? he sent me a message saying i steal songs from buskers and i replied but then i saw that hes now banned? im in the dark here!

aww man. ask the good man set one of those 12"s aside for me gs! they're sure to sell like hotcakes and i want i want i want.

I'll let him know but hes gonna be going overseas for good shortly after these gigs! it might be a looooong time before the opportunity arises again to grab one off him unfortunately
