I reckon that's definitely true.

Re: Mountains in the Sky, I picked up one of their albums, Accipio on a whim after spotting the wierd artwork and vaguely recalling the name from some late night show on a local radio station. It's one of my favourite impulse buys. I'm glad to hear that they're good live and I'm gonnahave to watch out for them coming to Perth. I'll put the album in the mediafire thread when it's done uploading.

The best way to get anywhere in a hurry is too get one of the closed coffee cups and hold it at arms length infront of you as if it is REALLY hot, even the big knobheaded guys get out of the way.

My friend's dad is a guitarist in the Hoodoo Gurus (I know, I know...) and he was at the after party for Bjork's opera house gig; apparently her peeps were hiding her coke from her by midnight and for the rest of the night she was just running around crazy sneaking lines in the bathrooms et al. And she was still the wasted party girl till around 7am...which is of course why she cancelled the Big Day Out show. That made me disappointed in her, in a "I'm not mad I'm just disappointed" parenting kind of way.
I have to say, the sound quality for Rage was actually really good from up high in the stadium, while it was shit for Arcade Fire in the same spot... maybe they just translate differently (who am I kidding, of course they do). In general I wasn't impressed with the sound engineers at sydney. They need a stern talking to!
And part of the reason I wanted to see Bjork was so I could check out that ReacTable thing, I'm so disappointed! what a cool instrument/synth thing.

I used to know a Mickey Grossman, said his dad was the Richard Grossman.
