My Chemical 'FUCKIN' Romance...
Oh dear lord. The new goth-punk gods of music are hitting our shores not
only to support Green Day, Kings of rock n roll, but to also perform their own shows. Expect tickets to sell FAST, so
get in early. With shows in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, the new wave of music gods are here.
Playing two shows (all ages and 18+) at the Arena in Brisbane, 18th December; Roundhouse in Sydney (all ages) 15th December;
and the Hi-Fi (18+) Melbourne 16th December. Check www.channelv.com.au for more details.
Green Day + Jimmy Eat World + My Chemical Romance.
A very welcome return to our shores for the Punk Rock gods due to the massive
success of the American Idiot tour in March. Presented by Channel V and B105, playing TWO sold out concerts (tickets
selling out in under two hours folks...this is BIG!!!! So big in fact they have to hold it inside two stadiums.)
with special guests Jimmy Eat World and the new wave of goth screamo gods My Chemical Romance in Sydney and Melbourne (too
bad if we here in Brisbane wanted a peice of the action...) in December on the 14th and 17th respectively. Expect
noise and the odd blast of fire. This is one for the memory book people!
WELL! Where to start?
My
Chemical Romance were fucking insane, as I knew they would be. The only disappointing fact here was that half the little
idiotic, dipshit, fankids in the crowd had no idea who they were. Cock wanks.
Jimmy eat World were a little disappointing
so I feel a bit stupid for waiting five years to see them.
Green Day were absolutley, jaw droppingly, crotch grabbingly
amazing. The dancing bunny was so cute and the crowd reaction as they started was enough to start the rain. Pyro
and crowd rapport all added to this feast for the senses. With the band trading places with three crowd members and
doucing the idiot zone with hoses, as well as playing their best stuff (Hitchin a ride and Minority included) it was simply
breathtaking, when you could get some.
HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT: MCR singing 'I'm not okay (I promise)' as their first
song, the final accoustic solo of 'Good Riddance (time of your life)' and Billie Joe teasing all the girls in the crowd by
torturing us all with his 'goods'.

I don't know
much about this tour as I'm personally not a fan, but as soon as I find out a sight that is helpful, I shall post it...
CKY are coming to Australia. YAY!
I missed
this concert and I was PISSED! But according to Luke, my roving scout of a reporter it went off.
I'm sorry
though, if you were playing at the Tivoli after friends HIM, I'd be shit scared. They were on fire and at their classiest
best.
Wish I'd seen it.
