Dunno if this sort of thing is generally allowed (are there rules in ET?) but any Adelaide people out there feel free to come along to a gig I have been asked to play in Saturday night at The Jade.

Pretty honoured to be asked to join her 'band' actually…..This girl is seriously talented and I would be going to this gig 100% whether I was asked to play or not. This is the album launch for her second album that's just been released.

Here’s a video from a song off her first album. We will also be playing/having a chat on 'Radio Adelaide' (where it's their feature album) on Friday morning, but I am pretty sure literally nobody listens to that station at 8:45am aha

I'm all about shameless plugs and I don't see the harm in this one.

I think it's great - good luck with it pal! 

Redshirtwilly - get your butt there pal!

I'll be the one wearing the Mariners shirt

Aaaaaand Davide disinvites you :lol:

Should just go dressed casual and tell Davide to look out for Professor Snape & that dude from Top Gears lovechild :lol:

YOUR WORDS WILL NEVER HURT ME! :'(

Which one from Top Gear? aha

James May I believe he's talking about

I actually guessed that for whatever reason. 

I didn't really expect to get anyone to actually come along from 442 just posted for the hell of it but in all seriousness, if you have nothing better to do come along and say hi. Just look for the sweaty nervous guy trying to look like he's not.

I'm sure you'll smash it :)

I have a full Saturday but should be good to come down and show support for a m80

I expect a post here on Sat night/Sunday about how Davide met Severus May

I think i've found my new gamer tag

What instrument do you play? How did you audition for this gig? If you were asked that means you're a good muso.

No Aussie muso gets on a stage in front of people unless their seriously good. Otherwise the punters throw beer bottles at you.

Ha ha it won't be the bottle throwing types at this gig that's for sure. It's a pretty laid back eclectic folky style and crowd. 

Secretly though, it's always been a bit of a dream of mine to start an awful, like really bad punk band like the sex pistols on a bad night and just ham it up on stage. I don't even really like punk music it would just be fun. I'd be happy to have bottles thrown in that case.

Good luck! Will any of it be recorded? You should chuck the link up on here after if it does. Sounds like it might be a pathway into more music opportunities for you. 

Thanks man, you mean will the gig be recorded? We will likely film it and probably have some up on the youtubes at some point soon enough I dare say...can do if you like.

I hope so.
Man...if I could go back to when I was 19 and had all the time in the world I would have tried so much harder with music aha

Now being an accountant for 10 hours a day makes you realise how precious time is!!!!!!!! 

Edit - Sorry, that got depressing aha

Don't u b knockin Accounting!

Davide - how was meeting Severus May? 

#accountantscollide

We didn't.  I went to nerd it up playing card games instead.  

There's always the A-League :)

Ha ha I was worried I had snubbed you there for a sec!!!!

Would be good to catch up with you guys at a game. I've been saying this to Davide for at least 3 years but lets make it happen this season :)

I'm keen!  

Aha c'mon let's do it then.
I used to feel bad for not sitting with dad coz it was kind of our thing we did together but my sister is a member too now so don't feel guilty abandoning him there sitting alone etc

Done

It's been my fault too. Apart from vague "we should catch up" it's never got to a specific place or time :laugh:

Alright this won't be forgotten.

Are we doing this by hanging at a pub to watch the United/Jets game or hanging at Hindmarsh?

Both home games coming up are hype as hell

Aha ok well I am not going anywhere to watch the Jets game as I have commitments on Sunday.
Rd 2 is a maybe but being the first home game, I will probably feel obliged to sit with dad.

If it doesn't happen in Rd2 I would be keen for any game after that for sure
Obviously that's a while away from now but just making sure I don't make promises I can't keep aha

Well i'll be the one wearing the Mariners shirt looking like Severus May

I'm not sure if I want to do it for the Victory game :laugh: But round 2 should work for me. Yes salmon you're welcome, as is anyone else that'd like to :)
