who's going to concerts in the near future??? since i missed out on homebake cos i was on friggin schoolies, i'm trying to now make up for it by going to as many concerts as i can...

in feb., i'm going to some diesel gig in eastwood hotel... then counting crows in hordern pavilion, i think. then in march i'm trying to get tix to the 'ben rox over australia' concert, and in april i'm going to the silverchair diorama tour concert. can't wait for the latter!!!

i wanna go to the taxiride one too.... but no one wants to come with.... and i'm trying to get my friends to go to speedstar* with me, at hopetoun.

tata.

Big stars also have big heads and think Australia is not worth coming too!!

Rock bands on the other hand come here all the time and there is always gigs to go to!!!

I'm not into mainstream music ie. top30 stuff.
The concerts (club gigs more like it eg, The metro) i'm hoping to attend include Cato Salsa Experience, The Breeders, Idlewild, Beck and Dirty Three. Most people wouldn't have heard of these bands but they are awesome IMO!!!

Inkow how you feel. It's sucks being underage, can never go to the clubs to see bands. that's why i'm happy now being 18!

Most bands don't bother with our country due to the dollar...

Example of the decade being U2...
The Edge went on record stating that their decision to avoid Australia was due to the fact that they wouldn't make a profit on an Australian trip, but to me that's complete crap as they would only have had to double the ticket prices (the show would sold out within 5 minutes, no matter the cost) to have made a profit.

Me... BDO in 2001 was great, except for the final band, Livid in Sydney was ok and the BDO this year was excellent.
