Future Music always have a good artist or two mixed in with total trash for the rest of it (like most festivals everywhere)

Aren't Phoenix playing this year? Phoenix are great.

Shouldn't it be called present music?

Shouldn't Soundwave just be called punk/metal festival?

I don't think that there are any real punk bands still playing so I'd suggest not!

This would have been more fun if you said there weren't any real metal bands playing

I'd rather a cunning lingering plan

Mount Franklin water bottles are the worst designed pieces of shit I've ever touched.

I'll never understand why people pay so much for chlorinated water in a bottle when it is so much more cheaper out of a tap

Is it one where the cunning lingers?

My dog chewed my pen, he doesnt deserve a bloody dog tag

Good God man, you let your dog get to your Pen? He has access to The Shrine? It is Holy Ground...no dogs, no dogs!

You'd be surprised where a lot of things come from if you checked his stools everyday, but we're getting off topic, so we better take it else where

Why Do...no better not, I don't want to know. Yes good idea. Back on topic...is your dog a member?

So, I don't know much about cars. I know enough through previous problems to roughly understand what a mechanic tells me, but that is the extent of my knowledge.

I recently moved house ans my car was due for a service, so I booked it into a new local mechanic that I hadn't tried before.

I was charged $550 for a major service, my last one at my old mechanic was $230. $325 of the $550 was labour, but I'd never looked closely enough at previous bills to judge if that is expensive or not. The Labour worked out to $130 an hour, and they spent 2.5 hours servicing my car.

I feel i was ripped off, was I ripped off?

You were only ripped off if you can't afford it.

If you can afford it find something else to stress about.

Money schmoney.

I think around 500 or so for a major service is about right at a reputable mechanic.

I now can't afford beer Dingle, what do you think?

Hm. I never had a problem with my old mechanic, which is why I'm feeling PO'd I guess. I also need a timer belt kit put into it, the mechanic called me today to let me know and quoted it at $1850. I declined, and then rang my old mechanic who quoted me at $390 + Labour.

Timing belts are generally anything from 500-1000/1200 depending on the car. 1850 is definitely steep. They could use different parts as well, genuine parts at dealerships cost a shitload. I'm a sucker and always get my prado serviced at a toyota dealership. They wash my car and detail it

Hunt the campaigner down and get $45 back for a slab.

I havent been for years but Eric Prydz, Chase & Status, Kaskade, Paul Van Dyk, Marcus Schulz, ATB, Cut Copy, Sven Vath, Dubfire would normally be enough for me to want to go. I guess it depends how deep your into your electronic music. The crowd is normally utter crap though.

In first year there was a incredible looking guy who sat across from me with the medium hair and beard look. Such a stunner that, well he inched out all the girls to claim best looking in the class (I'm one of those horrible people that always ranks the top 3 in my head). One day he shaved and got a haircut, and the stange new feelings I had been experiencing were gone.

Beard ftw.

Scientific fact.
