New Blog

I've moved across to Tumblr http://noisecity.tumblr.com/ due to it's ease of use and the iphone app, makes blogging easier. I'll be leaving this blog up, for historical purposes. Hope you drop by the new noisecity.

Late Night at Cherry

Tru-Mould Warehouse Party

Assassins 88(myspace) were the first band up at the Tru-Mould Warehouse Party, and they are a fun party band, very noisy. The drummer in the back, who you can't really see in this pic, has tape on his mouth and was making some very static noisy vocals to great effect.

Outside people were having there BYO drinks and trying out a sausage from the BBQ.

Above Scott and Charlene’s wedding another pop band, but alot slower and complete chance from Assassins. BoomGates finished the gig off, it was way to packed to get a good pick in, as I was pushed up at the band. They are todays rave band, getting some good reviews from their recent Big Day Out performance, with a member of Eddy Current Suppression Ring. They did remind me of Eddy Current Suppression Ring, a little slower, with some female vocals.

Last pic shows the big crowd out the front, many people probably didn't get in, and plenty of the BYO bottles that had been used and tossed away.

This is a test post using information from twitter and site rss feeds. Not very successful as many melbourne venue websites don't have rss feeds and often tweets don't have dates.

Sometimes I forget

Going through my pictures, I found this one, not a great photo, taken back on the 25th of April 2010, at The Old Bar, band unknown.

The Birmingham new band room

Saturday August 14th, The Birmingham, $8
Heavy Yolks, Joseph liddy and the Skeleton horse (QLD), Quoabe (Syd), Marf Loaf (Syd)

Marf Loaf

Quoabe

Joseph Liddy and the Skeleton Horse

The new band room is very cosy, although there there was trouble with the smell and sweat. The aircon was turned on but the window was still fogged up. Maybe this room could be on the nose come summer. However no poll in the middle of the room was great.

Marf Loaf two peice, great voice and excellent guitarist. Quoabe played some Gothic folk rock, guitar I could hear but his voice was a little muffled. Joseph Liddy and the Skeleton Horse, young band, had some loud rocking tunes mixed in with some quieter moments.

Lost Weekend

Last weekend at the Old Bar. Can't remember the name of the band on the top picture, but we were lucky to see a couple of band play at the end of the night.
