I love Rolf really, despite what I may sometimes say, I mean how many times have we all used the line....'can you tell what it is yet?' We owe him. And, what, I never knew the Seekers were Australian, what about the new Seekers, maybe they were Kiwi's? or not?
I think the New Seekers worked the same as Little River Band or what happened to John Fogarty. Someone from the band takes the name and continues on with it, till the originals wanna play again, then the fisty cuffs begin. But that's not gospel coz everybody knows I have no clue.
This is my favorite Rolf song. My gran used to sing it to me when I was a kid.
I know it's not his song but I still love his version of it.

Pumpkins and QOTSA on the same bill would be well worth $136 I reckon!
tis only the 2nd year we've had it. its a richard branson's big virgin thing. so it guess it looks like i cant go.
no seriously tis a festival in centennial park. this year pixies came.

Ah! Well that would probably put me off it too!
But then BDO has left a lot to be desired of recent years and Fall's has become this great money making venture, so I'm not sure we'll ever enjoy festivals the way we used to anymore.
Be worth it if it's gonna be all them AND Duran Duran. But I'm not adding an airfare onto the ticket price just to go. I'm a bit over all that now days anyway.
of course it is. our demands are high. our motto is: quality not crap.
British people love to be told what's good. The big festivals have all gone commercial, I know you like the Arctics, but with one record under their belt they were put top of the bill at Glastonbury! An honour that a band used to have to earn, now it's all about whos doing it this year.. The Greenman festival was very cool though.

glastonbury...now there's festival i could go for. and you know as well as i do jamie, the monkeys were the biggest thing in two worlds then. i am rather a fan of young alex turner. and the public are so so fickle...especially you brits.

It sounds like your V fest is gonna be better than ours. Ours is like top of the pops in a field.
To be honest Jamie, one of the things I found mind numbingly boring about the UK was the quality of the radio. I had severe jjj withdrawl the whole time I was there. Had to buy cassettes so I had something to listen to and even those choices were pretty bad.

Pumpkins and Queens of the Stone Age headlining. Think I'll be going.
136 bucks though!!!
What's V-Fest? I don't think I've heard of it.
Pumpkins and QOTSA on the same bill would be well worth $136 I reckon!

Pumpkins would have been cool to see 15 years ago but now all it is is Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin. QOTSA will kick them off the festival.
