That's so sad :( I hope they're okay.

Jonny Yes Yes

yes.. he was well enough to email.. i think it just affected his fighting skills.. which are essential for all tucker b's performances... dying to hear their new stuff though

arias... hm... i always end up throwing something at the tv.. who is the act that is going to win all the awards this year? i mean.. whose turn is it..? living end?

I think this year the industry is trying to show how cool it is; I'm going with Presets.

Last year they were trying to show how indie they were so they gave one to Gotye, even though it was for a remix album as they had overlooked the proper album the previous year.

Jonny Yes Yes

yes.. it's epic fails like that which makes them sooooo very irrelevant ... in the scheme of things..

eddy current aren't even going i don't think.. would be great if they win though.. but i think the bookies have them at about a 1000 to 1 chance..

I feel like I missed the point in time when the living end record was considered to be remotely good. I thought it would be the year of The Presets, but apparently the living end are still relevant.

Did anyone manage to catch their phenomenal NRL Grand Final performance? I'd always felt their live show lacked BBQ-dancing.

Were they wearing eyeliner & hipster scarves?

Jonny Yes Yes

i saw the nrl grand final appearance.... i get the feeling living end have the kind of fans that would call people who dress like living end (eyeliner etc) 'fags' if they saw them out at their local rsl..

is there anything worth watching the arias for tonight?

Jonny Yes Yes

i mean.... last year was worth it just for the nick cave appearance.. but this year..?

Seymour

Yeah, Nick Cave's speech last year was great.

I'm gonna tune in to see if The Presets open with My People. Other than that there isn't much point in sitting through three hours of Hamish and Andy, Living End accpetance speeches and Pink....all with commercials.

Julian Hamilton performing with a My Pet Monster on his head = hilarious.

Jonny Yes Yes

urgh.. the whole thing was shit.. i just invoiced aria for my time back..

I'm really glad The Presets scored best album. And yeah, their costumes were so great, kinda got the vibe they were taking the piss, or at least they let my thoughts take that route. They do irony well, The Presets they do.

Other than those instances, I pretty much wanted to gouge out my eyes, so at least they would match the set of bleeding ears I got from listening to Gabriella Cilmi speak.

You think The Presets deserve AOTY over the Nick Cave record???

It's their turn Sean, Nick's already won things and has been accepted by ARIA. Now Aria is showing that she is ahead of the curve. Who r the presets, omfg I'm gonna buying their itunes!

Seymour

Nick Cave is too good for the ARIAs.

The ARIAs are trashy, The Presets are trashy. It fits.

Oh and I like Apocalypso. A lot.

I never thought it possible to click on a thread about the tucker b's and find a whole lot of trash about the ARIA's. I hear a lot of complaning about it but why didn't you all just NOT WATCH IT. You all should know better. More talk about Tucker B's please.

Posted at 04:14 on Monday, October 20, 2008.

mike(punch)

Tucker B's.

Jonny Yes Yes

Wolfmother once thanked the Tucker B's in an acceptance speak at the ARIA's...

gemdilem

only watched the arias for an hour.. worst hour of my life... who the hell is this gabriella chick and why did she win all the awards when she can't even sing?? even her normal talking voice sounds awful... I switched off when she won the best female, couldn't bare to hear another acceptance speech from her

I think each year I forget how bad the arias are.. until I tune in...

I hate the way they give the awards each year to only a handful of people... there's plenty of aust music out there... share them around

I don't understand how someone whose song I've never heard managed to take out 6 awards. At least I subliminally knew Delta's songs when she won all of hers.

kidkym

Oh, and now is where I mention: Tucker B's!

Posted at 11:48 on Monday, October 20, 2008.

Jonny Yes Yes

the poor tuck tucks don't deserve to be caught up in this..

Midget + Tucker B's + Captain Nemo @ Hopetoun Hotel - 21/03/2008

Three high quality artists invade our town, take prisoners and convert these prisoners firstly into fans of their music and then into cartoon-faced zombies.
