Hey guys,
Fantomas are coming out with Serj Tankian in January, doing Director's Cut in its entirety, etc etc, which is exciting enough (cept the supporting Tankian part) ... but NOW I'm pissing-my-pants excited, cos the Ding Dong Lounge have said Melvins will be doing a show there when Fantomas comes out! WOWEE!
So yeah, does anyone have any inside info, some specifics of what Melvins we can expect? Will Big Business be down here with them? Will there be other Melvins shows around the country? I need to know these things!

I'm not getting excited until everything is confirmed but of course I'm there if it does go on!
Why say no to drugs when you can say yes?

Ok, so according to another board I frequent, looks like this Fantomas tour is with Dale on drums, so that prolly means the Melvins gig will be with Dunn on bass, yeah?

I'm pretty sure just Jared will still be on bass, for the melvins.

Man I hope they do some Brisbane shows, but I'll go to Melbourne if I have to.

Mash

I'm hoping it works out that I can do a trip up to Syndey to see em as well.

Michael Jordan

Yep, I'm planning to go to Sydney and Melbourne and hopefully Brisbane. Again, just waiting for confirmation...

I find it hard to believe Dale will be playing drums for Fantomas, but who knows.
I also heard a rumour Fantomas are playing the BDO but they aren't advertised on Ipecac, but the support shows are.

I figured since Fantomas was coming down, they only needed to bring Dale and they could play some shows with Trevor on bass as a three piece. Personally I doubt the BB boys will be coming for a handful of such small shows though- not sure they could even fit both drum kits onstage!

Anyway- got tix to Fantomas and should be at the Melb. Melvins show as well!  :D
take care,
