I wish more good bands/artists come to NZ

The good thing is that Foo Fighters are putting out their new album soon and they are like the only band that have NEVER missed New Zealand off a tour, they always come here. So I'm looking forward to that

You poor bloody thing. Let's hope you get someone good soon. Better than Lionel Ritchie, I'd be pissed off if he was all that was around my neck of the woods, too. Sorry to hear you're missing out on Eddie. It's shit when you can't afford something that you really want to do (I've had that a lot my life too). On another note, glad you don't live in Christchurch. A friend of mine and I were hoping you were all right, and we since found out you live in Wellington so at least you didn't cop the earthquake. Don't blame you for feeling glum, what with the earthquake in your country and not being able to see Ed hope someone good comes out who you want to see. Life can be cruel sometimes.;)

uhhh ... off topic a bit but i was talking with a guy from hawkes bay when i was in picton and he's pretty certain a big quake is gonna hit the north end of the south island in june ... i think he said some people predicted the one in christchurch and that those same people said there will be a huge one in malborough sounds ...

having been in wellington for the quake that hit a few weeks ago - i would take that under advisement ...

doompony

scaremongering. ken ring says he predicted the chch earthquake and that we're all going to die this sunday (though apparently 3 days either side as well, so i could die today, tomorrow, sunday, or early next week).

but he didn't predict the japanese earthquake.

take it with a grain of salt. the media hate these people but love the scary boogeyman earthquake stories.

doompony

and the earthquakes in wellington a couple of weeks ago were normal wellington shakes. the scientists say we actually had more/bigger quakes in the weeks leading up to the chch earthquake than we have after, but because we're so paranoid and hyperaware, we felt the recent ones.

i wake up if the wind rattles my windows a little now, but i never used to. it's just the current state of panic.

doompony

1 last thing

the wellington tremors - the reason a lot of people were freaked out by those is because we can sometimes feel the earthquakes that are centred in the south. we felt the big chch one. so when a lot of us felt those shakes, instead of our normal reaction of "... is that it? good. mmm tv" it was "... shit... shit... if we felt that, what the hell has happened in chch?"

yeah ... i thought it was the wind during that earthquake a few weeks ago ... i hate to do the fearmongering thing but i wouldn't be able to live with myself if a really massive one hit and i didn't at least pass on what i was told ...

at least the main part of the city should be protected if an earthquake were to happen and an ensuing tsunami occurred ...

doompony

yeah the southern coast would be toast, but the harbour is so far inland that some say a tsunami wouldn't get to the city. that said, never say never with mother nature.

doompony

you'll be pleased to know that

1. lionel richie was fucking choice

and

2. the moon man's predictions that another huge earthquake would kill us all in march was... nothing.

doompony

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease???

I am Duska and I approve this message.

I seem to recall EV saying that they will be back in "one year, two years, not eleven"

It's been 3.5 & they haven't indicated any further international tour. Though if they release that album any time soon how sweet would it be for them to come back this summer?
