Alright, time for some discussion on what yr all listening too. My iTunes inventory is getting a little stale so I'm up for some inspiration.

Currently loving The Drones' album "Havilah".. incredible songwriting and some of the best recorded guitars and drum I've heard in a long time. I'm a little late to the party with this album but it's on high rotation at the moment and will probably stay there a while. I've seen these guys live once (Fowlers, Adelaide) and fortunately they're incredible on stage too. Can't wait to see them again.

I feel like a loser, first I've heard of those guys, but i like that song, gonna have to find that one to chuck on the iPod, sounds like the songs in Christian Fletchers bit in Wave warriors.

Im sure they were rockin hard around the same time as these guys, I remember all those bands in Thrasher mag as a grommet before i surfed but skated heaps, but was still listening to stuff like Run DMC & Beastie boys and more obscure rap.

Built to Spill's "Ancient Melodies of the Future" has been in steady circulation (rotation?) these past few days. What a damn fine album.

This is from my band Kilminister from a few years ago. Richard Kearney: electric guitars. Dan Mauger: drums. Ronnie Neal: bass. blindboy vocals and acoustic guitars. We are working on some new stuff at the moment but are probably a few months away from recording it properly. I might put some demos up at some stage.

That was gold FG. I wish I could dance , alas I'm a stubbie toting wallflower . I find good dancing to be the most visually arresting of all art forms. Maybe even including surfing. Some of those crew were strutting the fuck out of it. Two thumbs up.

That was pretty cool indo, particularly that bit at the end where he says something like if you expect anything from music you expect too much, do it for yourself. And being good is sort of relative anyway, there are a lot of great technical players out there who no-one listens to and a lot of great musicians with pretty average skills if you know what I mean.
