Australian Tours

[Ytseman]

I see that Moshtix has the Ted Poley tickets on sale for November.

 

There's also been a change of venue for the Sydney show.

Not sure who these bands are or what this is about but it at least looks interesting...

 

Rockbrat News Flash: Rum Babas Re-union Show – 20 November 2010

 

 

When: Saturday 20 November 2010 - 7:30pm

 

Where: Sandringham Hotel – 387 King Street – Newtown

 

One of Australia’s finest all-girl outfits the Rum-Babas will do a one-off re-union show soon in Sydney as support to the also re-formed Vanilla Chainsaws. Newcastle outfit The Dragstrippers will kick off the evening. I really should alter that photo at left to read ’2010′ but it’s a cool image to accompany this news piece. Be there !

stryper tonight in melbourne woohoo!!

[Ytseman]

Sydney show was amazing, any lurkers here in attendance other than Matt, Ray & Geoff???

 

What was Melbourne like Andre?

[melodicrockoz]

Melbourne's show sold out, we got a tad over 75 mins of music which included 3 tracks off the covers album.

I persoanlly was hoping for 2 hr + show grabnted the band's been away from our shores for 22 years but maybe next time!

How rubbish that it's the Tracii Guns version of LA Guns touring... not sure if I will be going as I'm going away for that weekend. If the Eels are playing on Friday night I'll give the concert a miss but if not I might try to get out there.

 

As for Stryper, yeah they were very good. Particularly guitar-wise. I was delighted to see Sweet and Fox retain that awesome sound/style you hear on the CDs. The song selection was only so-so for me, with a few of the songs I just dislike ('Sing a song' or whatever it's called. As I said to Matt, I don't even know as I always skip that song. But they opened with it and it just dragged awfully. I didn't like 'Honestly' at all either [why didn't they do 'Lady' instead?] and there were about 2 other songs I just plain and simply didn't like) BUT it was still very enjoyable and I loved their sound. Highlight of the set was probably the sole representitive from 'Against the Law,' which was 'All for one.' The encore was awesome too. Loved that.

 

Glaring ommissions were 'In god we trust' and 'Always there for you' and I truly don't understand why the albums 'In God We Trust' and 'Against the Law' were so heavily overlooked. Still, aside from that, never thought I'd see Stryper in my lifetime so it was a good night. Good to see "Happy Snapper" Matt and meet Vince after the show too.

 

And seriously, man it was loud. I was at the back of the room and my ears still got raped. I assume it's because they're probably more used to bigger venues in their prime, but some bands seem to heavily estimate how loud they turn it up on the night... Would have loved a slightly less loud and clearer sound for my benefit.

Saw Stryper in Bris last night. I was very impressed. Vocals and guitars were great. I have to agree with Geoff about the volume though...far too loud.

Did anybody make it to this one?

What was it like?

Any of the bands have any cds for sale at the gig?

[Doggy]

Unfortunely i came down with gastro on Saturday and miss the gig. What i have heard it was went down awesome, sad that Nothing Sacred did not play due to Woolley didn't turn up. It finished around about 1 a.m. Sunday morning, and merchandise of performing artists i don't know if there was for sale.
