  • Just a quick stop in to say HI! Dropped back home to brissie to attend my sisters high school graduation before I move on to the rest of the tour. What an awesome time it has been so far. Highlights would have to include Brisbane #1, Sydney #1 (Front row centre baby! :D) and Melbourne #3.

    See you in Sydney/Newy!

    I forgot to ask how the store held up while you and leigh were in brissie?

    no dramas i hope.

    and i had a thought today, you should have like a local music section, i don't really know what the music scene is like up there but you know if you have a section dedicated just to townsville bands or north queenslanders or something, give a lot of smaller bands a place to see their E.P.s or cds or whatever. but yeah that might be a crap idea.

    Store was fine! Thanks for asking! :)

    HOw friggin strange! Leigh and I were only talking last night about setting up the local music section! It was a plan since the beginning but one of the many plans that keeps getting put off because we had so much to do! Now everything is getting a bit more streamlined, we are going to start doing shit like that to promote the local music scene!

    Hey Ziggy Star? Have been meaning to ask you for ages...do you do mail orders for your record store? Or is it something you're planning on doing. We live out in the bush, so tend to buy most of our music on-line...or when we get to the city, buy it from the 1 record store....but to be honest the guy that owns that record store is a bit of an ignoramous. I'd rather support your shop and give you our business.

    We're going to have an online shop but it's taking a bit longer than we expected!!! Especially since our friend just punched a wall (the most non-aggressive guy ever!) and now is getting a pin put in his hand and will be out of action for 2 months! Dickhead! And he's the drummer in Leigh's band and plays guitar too! Bet he's regretting that decision to punch a wall!!!

    But if you want something, I can check it up and just give you an email saying we can get THIS for $X, and if you want it, you can directly deposit the money into our account or send us a money order and we'll mail it to you!!!

    Kewl!!! Geez, you've done well!!! I don't think people realize how much goes into starting and running a business. Especially in the first year. Setting up a web site is a big job, too...woth it though, this day in age. I congratulate you both in taking the risk to do what you've done...it's huge and you should be proud of yourselves!!!
    Will deff; contact you next time we want something....won't be for a wee while...any spare money I get hold of at the moment (which isn't much!) is being put aside for the 25th!!!!! Have I mentioned yet...ONLY 8 MORE SLEEPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    "So far they have Jeff, Stone and Mike and they're fucking right now trying to get a little Eddie. And if they get to Boom ... we're just gonna keep adding band members. We'll have a horn section ... that's evolution, baby."
