HAPPY BIRTHDAY for yesterday, Dave!

Nothing else to add. Just liked the picture, really.

We should practise soon. But in all honesty, my spare time register reads at the 'oh my God, how am I going to do this without having a breakdown? Fuck law, I'm going to do a bar course at TAFE' level. And I'm guessing you guys are in a similar frame of mind.

Sunday is the best day for me, provided my work shift finishes relatively early. What about you ladies?

Where would we be without the internet?

New Strokes film clip, out tomorrow....:

Love Dave

And another thing -------------------
Another show we used to get and now don't, Jon Stewart's Daily Show is fucking hilarious and here is there extremely funny take on the Dick Cheney shooting his friend story. (Just found out how to put videos on here, expect a lot more...):

Dudley more...

2006-02-14T21:35:00.000-08:00

Love MidNite David

UPDATE ------------------------------------

I'm sure you all just saw it on Spicks And Specks but here is a fan website for Seona Dancing, Ricky Gervais' New Romantics band: http://www.injenn.net/~tania/seona-dancing/ and two mp3s, there two singles:
Seona Dancing - More To Lose (utter shit)
Seona Dancing - Bitter heart remix (worse)

Dave

I didn't realise you wrote such bloody awful poetry.

2006-02-10T21:47:00.000-08:00

A'ight, when can y'all practice? I'm free:
- Sunday afternoon/night
- Monday
- Wednesday
- Thursday before 1-ish
- Saturday

It'd be fanastic if we could fit in time for a few more practices before uni starts up again, because I plan to be Miss Study McStraight6s this year (no time for rehearsing when I could be learning!)

The Rolling Stones stage set up for the recent Super Bowl. America is wealthy, proof:

"Before the Rolling Stones play at Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show, producers will have six minutes to roll out and assemble a gigantic stage, erect 27 tons of lights...A crew comprising 350 volunteers has just six minutes to assemble a 5,300-square-foot stage that rolls out in 58 separate pieces on low-pressure balloon tires designed to protect the turf....Meanwhile, producers will flip the switch on 150 chain-hoist motors to lower 67 tons of lighting equipment strung on 2 miles of aircraft cable suspended from a grid above the stadium floor. And 3,000 pre-selected fans who have been standing outside for hours will be ushered onto the field around the stage to serve as the Stones' in-house audience....."

Love MidNite

UPDATE ------------------------
Inspired by Sam from a few months ago...i post these facts:

If you ask Chuck Norris what time it is, he always says, "Two seconds till." After you ask, "Two seconds to what?" he roundhouse kicks you in the face.

Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are trademarked names for his left and right legs.

When Chuck Norris goes to donate blood, he declines the syringe, and instead requests a hand gun and a bucket.

Chuck Norris once walked down the street with a massive er*ction. There were no survivors.

It takes Chuck Norris 20 minutes to watch 60 Minutes.

Chuck Norris can divide by zero.

If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris, then you may be only seconds away from death.

God offered Chuck Norris the gift to fly, but he swiftly declined, instead opting for super strength roundhouse ability.

Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.

When Chuck Norris was denied a Bacon McMuffin at McDonalds because it was 10:35, he roundhouse kicked the store so hard it became a Wendy's.

Chuck Norris can cut onions without crying.

Chuck Norris has never blinked in his entire life. Never.

Chuck Norris can believe it's not butter.

Chuck Norris once shot a German plane down with his finger, by yelling, "Bang!"

Chuck Norris doesn't need to swallow when eating food.

One time while sparring with a bear, Chuck Norris accidentally lost his left testicle. You might be familiar with it to this very day by its technical term: Jupiter.

Chuck Norris is Luke Skywalker's father.

Soon i will post the Friday the 13th Session Demos from last week, which includes 5 or 4 new songs all pretty much thrown together on the day with emphasis being on writing as a band. With the help of Pricky McPrick (what else are ex-band members for?) i will be able to put the tape onto the computer but i will have to buy a special type of cord...so...it will be coming soon.

The tracks are: Art as Twee/Twee as Fuck, Courtney Love on Letterman (Dave singing), Christian Song, Balladeers' (Myles') Song and Flower.

Hopefully i get it on here before we go away.

Love Dave

What about yooooouuse guys? (ugh)

Choir-ser Chiefs

2006-01-06T22:03:00.000-08:00

I predict a riot is about the only Kaiser Chiefs song i like and this makes it doubly awesome - its performed by some community choir:
I Predict a Riot - The Chesire Chord Company

O! David-O Bowie-O

2006-01-05T21:55:00.000-08:00

If you haven't seen the Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou you are a bum! The soundtrack is made up mostly of one of the cast members (Seu Jorge) playing Bowie covers in Portugese - an album was also released with the songs - here are three:
-->Queen Bitch
-->Rebel Rebel
-->Quicksand (the best i think)

Sweet.

I don't feel like a zombie, thank goodness.

David.

p.s.:

Let me know if you guys can practise any of those days.

*Mwah, mwah*

Mmmm... Scottish....

2005-12-23T17:38:00.000-08:00

Bing Crosby and David Bowie (and Hannah) wish you a Merry Christmas.

If you haven't heard it already, download Bing and Bowie's 'Little Drummer Boy' duet. It's the second sweetest Christmas recording you'll ever hear.

The sweetest is Belle and Sebastian's Christmas broadcast for John Peel's (dead guy, owned a few records) radio show. '12 Days of Christmas' and 'O Little Town of Bethlehem' are gorgeous. There's a bit where Stuart requests a "wee bit o' bass" on 'O Litte Town' that makes me grin like a total git for hours.

I don't know how to do the fancy link-y bit, but you should track 'em down and download a little Christmas spirit onto your hard drive.

Strokes Tour

2005-12-22T18:00:00.000-08:00

"hello everyone,

of the new year.

album out JAN 03 for the U.S.A

There you go.

C-C-Christmas!!

2005-12-21T19:53:00.000-08:00

Found these on a website for a vintage Guitar shop in New York City (Matt Umanov Guitars 273 Bleecker St. NY, NY 10014 (212), if you were wondering). Have a look at the website for more...including a Gibson acoustic from 1937!! At a bargain $US4,295.00 (that's $5, 862 Australian Christian, just in case you buy it!)

Hopefully these are in someone's stocking on Sunday!

sorry for posting so much.

Lonesome, Romantic Christmas (jingle, jingle)

2005-12-21T02:43:00.000-08:00

All you lovers or lonesomes out there in radioland might enjoy these two at Christmas time; relaxing by the fire or having a snowball fight or rolling around in silk sheets or day dreaming about romance:

Yes I'm Ready - Barbara Mason - romance in 3:03 minutes

Play this one second, out on the town in your red convertible with your boy or girl or laughing at those crazy floosies at Birdee Num Num.

Them Terrible Boots - The Orlons (probably one of the best songs i've ever heard)

And, tomorrow i will bring you your Christmas gifts a little early since i'll be away for 10 days while Hank McBoobies keeps the home fires burning.

Just like Santa Claus, the gifts are red and white...

Love St. Dave

P.s.
The sad part of Christmas...pay your respects.

Strokes Quo

2005-12-20T19:27:00.000-08:00

While is was in Rockinghorse buying my Big Day Out ticket i noticed something in the records rack...

Not so weird you say, Status Quo, cool cover...someone else thought so as well obviously...

Nice font.

Dave.

Run, Run, Run

2005-12-19T04:44:00.000-08:00

Well, i will be running to Rockinghorse at 9am tomorrow morning to try and amend my continuing and idiotic stupidity. In the mean time i did another one of those SodaPopArt things made of a US Quarter. Cool.

MP3s:
Jose Gonzalez - Hand on your heart. Jose is the same guy your hear on the awesome, awesome San-Fran set bouncy ball ad for the Sony television...its an advertising thing. Anyway, a little sappy but pretty darn good at the same time. (And it's a cover of a Kylie song...always a bonus)

Ike and Tina Turner - River Deep Mountain High. Yes, i know i thought i knew it too. But...this is the Phil Spector mix version of it. You thought yeah Phil pissed of Macca and the Beatles but he did some good stuff...No you were right, he is a mad c***. As seen here during his murder trial.
And,

The Aislers Set - Chicago New York. Sounds like Belle & Sebastien, not as good, but a pleasant malibu and pineapple type of song...

(Source: Said The Gramophone)

Love Dave, wish me luck tomorrow getting a ticket.

BDO SOLD OUT!

2005-12-19T04:01:00.000-08:00

Hope y'all bought your tickets already...

2005-12-17T04:48:00.000-08:00

I want to post more MP3s more often (could be a very hollow promise); just stuff i find and directly steal. And then one day when thousands of people read this i can put on local stuff like I Heart Hiroshima's new Demo or The French Horns cool new track or something...

Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek
Field Music - Shorter Shorter (from FieldMusic.co.uk)
Brand spanking new and highly recommended (of course, they are the modern day Smiths): Belle & Sebastien - We Are The Sleepyheads (from gorrilla.vs.bear)
MIA - Hombre
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah - Skin of my yellow country teeth
The Morning After Girls - Shadows Evolve (from triplej.net.au)

Coming Soon:
- Those John Peel's favourite singles thing i promised about 6 months ago
- And christmas songs
- More hollow promises

Love Dave

UPDATE:
Belle & Sebastien - song for sunshine

Lesbo-a-Go-Go!

2005-12-12T05:36:00.000-08:00

Possibility of a gig on January 4th at the Tongue and Groove bar (*cough* lesbian bar *cough*) supporting the John Citizens. Hopefully Dom was serious about letting us play, and not just engaging in the idle smalltalk that is oh-so-common at Sunday afternoon barbeques.

Even if that falls through, we really should get together and write some more songs. And eat pizza. Mmmm.

2005-12-11T05:12:00.000-08:00

Without being preachy, the riots in Cronulla today make me feel excruciatingly sorry for people who live in a world that disrespects someone because of the colour of their skin through mob mentality. Sure, Australia has a reputation of being perhaps culturally unaccepting but i always felt it was the minority; 5 thousand people at Cronulla proved me wrong. People like that make me want to throw up.

The worst thing about it is they don't even know they are wrong, and i can't do anything about it.

I'm not ashamed i'm Australian, i'm ashamed they are.

sorry...couldn't go un-said...

Dave

The Year and the Morning After, girls

2005-12-07T20:15:00.000-08:00

The Morning After Girls are really very good. Sydney band you've probably heard of before: they sound like early dandys and the brian jonestown massacre. Here are two songs:

s t r a i g h t t h r u y o u &
h i s k i e s (right click, 'save target as')

And for blogging sake: what was the 5 best tracks, 5 best albums and 5 best films of 2005.

2005 has also been a year of bust-ups; Jack White finally divorced Meg and married a Scarlett woman, Nick and Jessica broke, Julian Casablancas separated with the bottle to be with his employer and Paris left Paris. Who will get together and fail in 2006? Condeleeza Rice and Samuel L Jackson?, Bob Dylan and Shania Twain?, Tony Abbott and George Pell?

I can't think of mine yet, so i will include them in the comments.

Love and Merry Christmas, Dave.

Rock 'n' Roll Starr

2005-11-27T22:30:00.000-08:00

Went to Oasis last night, which was pretty sweet. 24 hours later and I'm still hurting. Sweaty, drunk, rugby-playing fanboys can cause bruises...

I was the most excited about seeing Ringo Starr's son drumming. He is a helluva lot better than his Daddy, thank God.

Liam Gallagher, on the other hand, is a wanker.

Also, how awesome is my title to this post? I'm really proud of that one.

Gee holidays...

2005-11-22T00:34:00.000-08:00

Not much going on right now, besides christians toe being operated upon.

Perhaps we will rehearse soon.

Perhaps we should play a few gigs, that one in january still looking likely?

Someone use there special gig getting powers...

awesome, ...

love sarsperella

p.s. if you ever get the chance, you should watch this. Best thing i have seen all year (if not ever), cocksuckers.

Also, we should cover this song by the Bee Gees which i cannot recall the name of, i'll play it for you next time.

Love Dave (again)

I don't think you're ready for this jelly.

2005-11-06T22:35:00.000-08:00

Practice at Rizzo's this Friday. Everyone free?

Also, no more law as of Wednesday 11am. Take THAT, Kirby J!

The White Stripes' Jack White has signed up to and recorded a song for a Coca-Cola commercial...he says that the ad 'inspired' him. That Jackey White can be confussing sometimes, but i'm sure it will be awesome. LINK TO STORY. via NME

I've really got not much more to say...just doing this to avoid study.

I will endeavour to post more MP3s because thats cool and exclusive.

Expect some of the following: John Peel as reported previously had one of the biggest record collection in the world, he would also carry around with him 140 of his favourite singles. Surprisingly 9 White Stripes rare singles were in there. I've downloaded them and will post them soon as well as other songs from the collection including The Buzzcocks - Just Lust, The Yardbirds - the happenings ten years time ago and The Beatles - Octopus's Garden.

Ok, Love Dave

A Band of Stars from the Milky Way

2005-10-31T16:51:00.000-08:00

I changed our bi-line...clever.

We should practise on the friday or weekend after we all finish exams. And possibly drink beer and eat cheese steaks. We should adopt that new sound that we discovered at practise with our new sweet-belle and sebas-esque groove song/pop sweetness.

Anyway, we should practise and write and write and write. And record on my tape recorder all of our efforts (The tape recorder is legendary, records pretty clearly and rustic and cool). Then we'll play Ric's and then the Bowery Ballroom, New York City.

I can't study.

Love Dave.
______________________________________________________

UPDATE: i figured out how to post audio files for download.
So here are two Stats tracks from the archives that are cool (they have no vocals).

Square one: http://s33.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0VXMAXU9DCXAO067WCFW6LZLWR

&...

Square two: http://s33.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3A3KBGQY3PO7M2KMZ9ZMQZI4VU

to download: right click "download now" and select "Save Target As..." then save it.

i'm not sure why they are so big in size, the first song goes for 45 seconds the second about 2 mins or something. Anyway, i hope you can do it!

Dave

NEEEEEEERD!

2005-10-29T19:12:00.000-07:00

Well the gig went well. It was generally a drunken-girly mess, with the set list being followed mostly religiously except for two breaks instead of one, huge interuptions and noise restrictions. The set list as far as i can recall went a little something like this:

1. Hardest button

2. Expresso

3. is this it

4. World without end

---Speeches.....(cut short because of computer shit, go back on unexpectadly)

5. Make noise which spasms into tambourine-beats and Hit me baby one more time - Britney Spears.

6. Christian's song, i think??

7. Molly's Chambers maybe

8. Where is my mind?

---Speeches again for about 4 hours.

9. Pyshco Killer

10. Wasted and Ready

11. Seven nation army (half of it)

By this time it was around 12:01am and we had gone on at about 9:45pm or there abouts. We managed to book ourselves another follow up show...in Esk in country Queensland where we would "need to careful about risky material" and that we would probably get beaten. HAnnAH politely responded, "just give christian your number, we'll see if we can"...

Highlight?(besides free alcohol) 14 year old waitresses in short skirts advising us that we were, like, really talented and then running away giggling. Resulting in Myles pondering, "did that just happen?", none of us really were sure if we were just mocked or severly slammed by teenagers.

Anyway, good luck with exams on monday 75% of the band!

Love Soda Pop Fizz

(p.s. correct me if the set list is wrong, proably is...)

Oh, Mr. Darcy!

2005-10-27T15:15:00.000-07:00

He can court me anyday! *Swoon*

So, are we rehearsing today or what? You didn't call last night, Christian, it broke my heart.

Ahh well... who needs friends when you have Darcy porn?

Bludgeoned in your bed

2005-10-26T17:25:00.001-07:00

We should cover Big Mouth Strikes Again by The Smiths. We should perfect it note for note, drum for drum.

(not for friday)

Myles has the voice for it and it's awesome.

Space, Light and Time Travel

2005-10-25T20:21:00.000-07:00

Because we love conspiracy theories and amazing space facts so much here at soda-pop-fizz.blogspot.com let us discuss radio waves and how the hell do they carry data from one point to another, the size and magnitude of space and its mystery, galaxy human clones and indentical twins, black hole travel and the space time continium. Feel free to discuss the moon landing hoax, the JFK assasination, aliens, area 51, secret CIA operatives in the public sphere and crop circles.

Everyone has some kind opinion on these matters so please share what you have heard, read or thought due to hyper-galactic brain waves sent by un-human life forms.

Love Christian & Dave

dress ups

2005-10-25T00:55:00.000-07:00

just quickly...
hank mcboobies/hannah and i discussed that we should dress ourselves after practise before heading of to the party and this would lead to a good photo opportunity to put on the top banner of this site or just for fun.

so bring props or propose suggestive poses and themes...

we can do it with the timer on the young's digital camera, stats cover art style

anyway sorry to clog up this thing with more stuff,

dave

p.s. someone already stole your name hank!! (googled "mcboobies")

Aloha!!

- the set list.

The Strokes Live in Brazil last night playing new song:

Hawaii Aloha from First Impressions of Earth

(click on link)
(coincidently, Dad just made port in Brazil at the same time, he won the race from Portugal by the way)

love dave.

p.s. the link might die soon, not sure how long those things last....

in other news:
- Yeah Yeah Yeahs have completed their second full length album which is due, apparently in march.
- Carl Barat (former libertine) names his new band Dirty Pretty Things after his club night in London
- Radiohead album due early next year to feature robots, spacemen and a weird frontman with a wonky eye

Swotting away for teacher like a total spazmo...

2005-10-24T19:28:00.000-07:00

A'ight guys, we really need to get our collective arses into gear about this goddamn party on Friday night.

Firstly, is everyone okay for a (short) rehearsal beforehand? I'm thinking 3 hours on Friday afternoon to run through the songs and resolve any issues.

What the feck are we going to do about equipment? I'm not sure whether I'll have time to get a bass amp before Friday, because at Hannah headquaters it has been pretty much non-stop swotting all week. I'll politely bring it into future conversations with Daddy, but otherwise might have to add it to the hire list.

Also, is three days enough time for everyone to grow their hair like this?

2005-10-24T06:24:00.000-07:00

I don't have anything remotely interesting or relevant to say.

So here's an adorable picture instead. LOL izzn't it teh cuuTTEst! loL!!!11

Long Lost Brothers

i like it a lot.

WHAT TO WEAR TO THE PARTY AS A BAND:
- i think this is fuckin hard, we all don't exactly dress similar except for maybe christ and david but that's just silly. Maybe it could be like a split thing, such as, dave and hannah wear similar things and myles and christ wear similar things (and/or vise versa), or, maybe myles could go all frontman and wear something and the rest of the band wears suits for this occassion.

anyway, any idea counts; no shame, no gain; no-one will scoff at your suggestions besides maybe christian who is a painfully disgusting prick.

comment away.............

love dave
p.s.

Collective respect

2005-10-18T03:01:00.000-07:00

I just read that the late great british radio disc-jockey John Peel has about 26,000 vinyl, 40,000 singles and 40,000 cds in his collection. That makes a total of 106, 000 pieces. That means if he started collecting when he was born he got 31 a week or 4 a day. He was only 65 when he died.

His late wife lives on the Peel Acres where the collection is kept in a number of barns and stables...

good god.

(they were probably all free as well)

well that was pointless but interesting.......

love dave
p.s. it's the one year anniversary for John Peel

The List Issue: top 11 songs to play at a 21st in a penthouse by a non-cheap non-covers band with cred

anyway i hope these ridiculous links to off the point photos was of some distraction for litigation whats-its and prosecuting thingos.

love dave.

p.s. perhaps this will distract you

hannah, this is the man we were talking about, knee bendingly, crushingly good looking. and he's barely legal. Christian and dave have official man crushes.
