I enjoyed it, they have some catchy numbers. It was at a small/medium sized venue, 300 capacity. It was Serra's birthday so they had a cake on stage that all the band members took a bite out of without using their hands. Her mum, dad and brother must have come over to Melbourne for the gig; she's from Western Australia.

Support band was Delivery

Sounds like a bit of a disjointed 1st half because of rotation, probably. Sounds like Mariona was the glue that made things stick after she came on. The only downer seems to be that Walti got subbed off with an injury, with Little coming on, just before half time.

I just caught the highlights. Top goal from KCC. And Mariona…excellent. Hope that they can put up a fight (and more) against Chelsea.

Yes, I saw a promo for a gig/festival that the DJ version was appearing at and I got excited thinking it was the band.

There is still nothing quite like getting a W over that lot.

I enjoyed that more than Show Me Heaven 😉. Maria McKee does have a decent voice, as you say. YT also decided to play me Lone Justice's covers of Sweet Jane and Walk On The Wild Side.

Speaking of covers, someone has declared 5 Feb as International Covers Day. We should "celebrate" it here.

Yes, and the original resolution was something like this!

Correction. It was released in September 1994!

Imagine how good it would be if we overcome the deficit to Newcastle and then beat the Spuds in the League Cup final. ಠ_ಠ

In addition, even though i’m not a fan of Colin Firth, Fever Pitch is worth watching as a follow up to this documentary.

Nice live version. Official MV

The whole set is worth a listen, as they play all the songs from Old World Underground, Where Are You Now? [2003]

 

I saw the Leeds band, Sky Larkin, play live a few times during the time I lived in England. Therefore, I was delighted to find this.

Drunk Mums have been around for a while. I believe they started as a band in Brisbane, but like so many others, they have ended up based in Mebourne. I first stumbled onto them maybe 10 years ago. I took some overseas visitors out on a school night and we ended up at a rock venue called Cherry Bar, on AC/DC Lane. DMs were on one of their visits from Brisbane.

Purely by chance, today I cycled down the very street that they are seen riding the e-scooters in this video.

This band has a great sound. Admirers of stuff like Mazzy Star might find this up their alley.

Thanks to @phant for pointing me in the direction of this current Melbourne band after I posted a track from a 90’s near namesake Melbourne band.

Edit - swapped out this song

What do you really think, Amy?

Another Canberra formed band that seems to now be based in Melbourne.

  • This was from their first album. The video depicts life as a touring, indie band in Australia
  • They have a new album out in November. You can find some of the already released songs on their channel/streaming.
  • Not a name I would have chosen for my band!

I just discovered this band that hails from Canberra, Australia's capital. It seems that some of them are based in Melbourne, which is where this video was shot. IMO, this is the most alluring of their tracks that I can find. The chime of the guitars and the effervescent vocal delivery ~~/lyrics~~, do it for me.
