Sorry
everyone but
I've just booked me a ticket to see P.J. in Brisbane on the 10th of November,
and before you all turn green,
let me tell you that I am only going because
I heard a voice last night telling me to go on a mission from God
on behalf of all N.Zealand fans!!

As suggested previously,
I will be carrying a banner saying "PLAY N.Z. YOU PUSSIES" !
I'll do this for you I promise.

Has anyone heard anything from the Red Hot Chili Peppers ?
Do they tour here or do they carry on like those other "pussies" ?

I head RHCP were playing BDO (Again). Co-headlining with Tool.

Good stuff on the sign. I think it will get the message through loud and clear.

They better play their own concert, I wouldnt go near BDO with a 50 foot barge pole.

Sure, if you want their only reaction to be a groan and a roll of the eyes… 'you pussies' has been done SO many times already...

Ok people here's the latest from the petition site. Input on question 2 would be great. I'm thinking radio plugs, music store ads and email fowards with a link.

Yeah thatd work as a banner, not necessarily with your mug on it but as long as you had a big Kiwi smile on it then that might work too?
Anyone else on a bit of a Pearl Jam hiatus like me at the mo? Im not being an angry so and so and boycotting their music, this just seemed like a good time to discover some other stuff and get back to their stuff later on. Its been very rewarding so far

I'm on a Beatles bender.

Anyone into, or heard of the Dresden Dolls? I've had playlist of rock music and some metal alternating according to my mood. I don't have much Pearl Jam on my computer at the moment. But yes, none of this abandoning BS.

Like I say its not abandoning BS, its just I dont really feel like listening to Pearl Jam at the moment. Ill come back to the new album in summer, and ill love it all again and life will be fuckin marvellous pardon my french. Im gonna go into Real Groovy tomorrow and go nuts and get into some new stuff, then set up shop at home with the right utensils.
And no I havent heard of the Dresden Dolls although ive vaguely heard the name...

Ok no problem...
I'll ad the picture of a sliced kiwi fruit
they might decide to use that as the next cover !

someone has gotta photoshop that!!!

you could take a new album poster and paste a kiwi fruit over the avo, and add some message about NZ under the "Pearl Jam". I can't picture this

700 is a special? Pass from me old bean, I guess Icould use it as a bday present but I dont know anyone who wants to buy me a 1000 dollar bday present.

Sounds good.
Getting in touch with Neil Finn would still be a good idea because he's got a direct line to Eddie, and can relay all your efforts directly to him
