Fuck it. Everyone laugh at the retard...jose, how come you can see that but not me (or anyone else?)
Oh...cheers paulie
That pub is actually The Strathfield Hotel, jose. The main room is called the platform 9 bar - it's a kinda railway station bar of yesteryear theme, gas-lantern light fittings, old red leather train carriage seats in the booths, the old-school wooden rotary slat station signage on the back wall, dark mahogany tables and stools, etc.
We thought it would be appropriate artwork cos we're all old carnce.
I'm gonna hit that pub the next time I'm in Syd.
Does it have Pokies??
i've been to that pub. and never returned.
soccer sounds good.. golden mean fc

Nope. None.
Footscray Rd won't kill ya, I guess.
over the westgate I guess... easy and direct

bring on the restrained and sensible finale..
jesus.
Ok, so that's...

...tonight at the Old Bar.
Come & celebrate...life.
really dug Seconds.. what a top band. the little additions of keyboard melodies, and the vocals were great
seconds are one of the cleverest bands i've ever seen
I [heart] seconds 4 EVA
For fucks sake...
GO> GO>> GO>>> to Seconds Myspace page and listen to the song REMO. It's a killer! It'll make ye smile, and shake yer leg a bit.
Then GO > GO >> GO >>> to Golden Mean Myspace and listen to the song SWEET CIGARETTES and behold, a band snap frozen in 1994 guitar pop/rock wonderland. It'll make you remember when Triple J used to play great music nearly ALL the time.
Then GO> GO>> GO>>> to the Old Bar tonight and check it all out.
Thanks to all who ventured out to the shows. Much fun was had, much beer was drunk, and my already considerable love for Melbourne town has increased ten fold...
twas indeed a grand trip.. shit you guys can drink.
i believe that's what they do best al. oh, and play a few decent tunes too.
but yeah, them fellas can put away a beer or 70. kezza could do 70 on his own!
next time get a brewery to sponsor the tour
I owe you fuckers a couple G&Ts.
Noice work fellas. Twas great to let my ears bleed for a while. Special mention to Al for the top mixing. And of course, special mention to the 22 jugs o' beer. May they rest in peace.
It was a pleasure to watch GOLDEN MEAN @ Ding Dong last thursday night & then Sat @ the Old Bar. I couldn't make it to The Commercial on Friday night as I had to rest my liver from the previous night's playtime. I heard that the amount of booze sunk wesside WAS disrespectful to livers worldwide.
Dirty, chunky, sweet & beautiful guitar stuff with, well, booty shaking beats & honestly inspiring tag-team vox. Be happy to have Golden Mean on your bill whether punter or player.
It was a pleasure to watch TELECOM @ Ding Dong last thursday night. I'm sure that they would have gone down an absolute treat @ the Northcote Social Club on Friday. Couldn't make it - see above.
These guys were channeling some serious energy into their ENTIRE set at Ding Dong. I don't know - vibrancy of youth or a pact with the devil? TELECOM's brilliance & colour mask a devastating kinetic energy.
It's all too much fun.
