The off topic thread #2

I do already have Spotify but it's missing some music.

Thinking about having both tbh.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Can you download all music? $15 a month seems reasonable for that.

And Coldplay! I hear they put on a pretty good performance so I'm buzzing for it haha.

$15 month? I've just checked online I haven't had a withdrawal from Apple in ages. I'm on Apple Music though...

First 3 months are free seemingly. That seems to be what it is though.

What do you think of it? You can download as much as you like right?

You don't know the prodigy?

remember seeing them at two tribes back in 2004 and absolutely tripping balls (chemically enhanced) and listening to most of the set sitting in a planter box outside of rod laver arena

I think you can. Worked well when I had to on the fly get a whole heap of music for mum's birthday party.

I don't mind it, no more illegal downloads that end up with a .exe file or some shit remix when it said it wasn't.

Greatest electronic/dance band ever.

It's next level shit.

2010 Future Music Festival. One of the best sets i've seen at a festival anywhere including Europe!

Wish Offshore was still around. chef glenferry23 did you go back in the day?

Some tunes to get the friday arvo started...

Billy Joel, Fleetwood Mac both superb.

Absolutely agree on Matchbox 20 as well. Absolutely love some of their stuff.

Billy Joel is one of the best singer/songwriters ever. Amazing vocal range, knew how to pen a hit, but was well and truly able to pen deeper stuff.

Always liked Fleetwood Mac. That changed when I saw them live. It went to a whole new level. I knew they had a lot of hits, but at the show it literally felt like hit after hit, after hit. I have seen a lot of artists live, they'd be in my top three.

And yeah MB20 are great. Shame they went their own way. Some great songs.

"We didn't start the fire".....

"We didn't start the fire".....

Billy Joel hates it. Doesn't like because there is no melody.

It was sent to every high school in 89 for history class to teach students.

Each "verse" lists major things that happened each year from 49-89.

[Cooldude]

If Bill thought We didn't star the fire had no melody then I wonder what he thinks of the modern stuff

 

[Cruyff14]

To be fair, he is right, there is no real melody in it.

Bloody good song though.

 

[Cruyff14]

Christmas Party at Le Bon Ton tonight, should be good!

2010 Future Music Festival. One of the best sets i've seen at a festival anywhere including Europe!

In Melbourne? Funnily enough that was only the second and final time I've seen them live. First was in 98 when I somehow snuck into the Metro.

Can't even compare the two concerts. In 98 they were arguably at their peak and Maxim and Leeroy were at the top of their game, getting the crowd involved. I also think they're better in an indoors setting, smaller crowd and smaller venue etc. But the Future set was still great.

Wish Offshore was still around. chef glenferry23 did you go back in the day?

Went once, too many people for me. I think they closed it down because the locals complained, fair enough too the clean up each time would have been massive.

Yep it was pouring down. I went just for their set then went home.

it's the only thing i can remember from the day. not saying the rest was bad, was just way too out of it to remember it 6 years later

Yeah, late 00s i caught a side show. One of those bucket list bands for me.

Disappointed the stars didnt aline for me in the 90s and being able to catch them at their peak. Probably wouldnt have remembered much of it anyway

 

[SM]

Not off to a good start with Internode Zidane98, they've been ****ing me around massively and I'm getting pretty fed up with them.
