[LESStar58]

Go. listen. now.

Thats all I have to say to you NBB.....

 

[newtownbluebags]

ok Les, will do! :lol: :nwave:

 

[Citizen.Eras3d]

Argh, no Adelaide dates. Typical.

 

[LESStar58]

Come to Melbourne!

 

[Red Bear]

this should be good but only have seven songs by em or so (love what i do have tho) What can you recomend to me lesstar?

 

[LESStar58]

Every album is kick arse in its own way GTB but I would recommend you start at the beginning and get Swagger (first album) then may as as well get Drnken Lullabies and "within a mile of home".

Whats songs do you have? They are awesome live!

 

[Red Bear]

I have drunken lullabies (song), salty dog, every dog has his day, seven deadly sins(awesome), far away boys, the worst day since yesterday, Black friday rule, cry of the celtic, light of a fading start and rebels of the sacred heart

 

[LESStar58]

Cry of the Celtic? Never heard of it!?

drunken lullabies is of the album of the same name....as is rebels of the sacred heart

salty dog, every dog has his day, far away boys, the worst day since yesterday, Black friday rule- all off "Swagger"

seven deadly sins and light of a fading star are off "within a mile of home".

 

[LESStar58]

Double folky/punk goodness! Supports for these shows are gypsy/balkan/punk outfit Gogol Bordello!

Luke needs new shorts!

 

[McCrud]

Hensley should have stuck to getting 'fly on the seven ply' (J/K).

 

[LESStar58]

i don't get it......

I'm actually tempted to come up for Brisbane and Sydney. Was thinking great escape as well but its $165......more if you wanna camp out.

 

[LESStar58]

Just got an email from the FM mailing list. In addition to Gogol Bordello the supports for this tour will be The Sounds from Sweden...

It's gonna make for a very interesting night of music! Irish folk rock, gypsy/Eastern European folk rock and now a Swedish new wave band!

 

[LESStar58]
