Ding Dong Lounge, Melbourne 27/01/2009 (both shows)

The Fool · January 29, 2009, 09:34:21 PM

oh cool- i was a little confused that you had the wiki link for bar.

the ding dong certainly advertised it as Bar McKinnon's band, though only after the show sold out.

I think that 'bastard' was another guy but I didn't notice his shirt.
I still could have said something to you though if you were there with your woman though.
A guy with really long hair was standing beside me on my left and I asked him if my buddy was pissing him off standing where he was when we moved in and he said everything was cool, but again, didn't see what shirt he had on because I was next to him, or slightly behind during the show.
...Sound familiar at all?!?

I was the only one there with a yellow shirt on though I think, so it's probably easier for you to tell if you saw me at all.

Anyway, if they do happen to ever tour again, we'll have to be better organised!

Nah, i don't think anyone asked me if i was pissed off. Must've been someone else. I'm actually thinking that 'the bastard' was the guy who beat us to the setlist. And started stroking my friends hair and singing to him during the show.

what?!? ...stroking your friends hair and singing to him?
what an odd thing to be doing at a melvins show- or any show for that matter!

Yeah it was really fucking weird. That guy played a hell of a lot of air guitar too.

I definitely saw you and your mate, you were standing to my left. In fact my friend Enzo is in the background in the photo of u and ur friend

Eponymous - great review. I'm sure all the hassle paid off eventually.

That's pretty funny. We were pretty much right next to each other and didn't get to say hello.

Yeah- I saw you as well heaps of times throughout the night mop!
Can't believe we were all within a metre or two of each other at the later show and none of us had a clue...

No pics from me. I don't have a phone that takes pics or a camera and my friends were both too busy (or more likely too pissed!) to take any either- even though we were at both shows.
Think one of them got some video of Spread Eagle Beagle when he was right up front though I have no idea if it's decent quality or not as I haven't seen it yet.
...I'll post it up when I get it if it's not crap

wayniac · February 02, 2009, 07:24:20 AM

Hi all,

I think I'm the friend that The Fool was referring to who had Spread Eagle Beagle footage. It's pretty crap quality as it was just from a phone and it's only 30 seconds (didn't trust myself in my slightly drunken state to hold my phone up any longer)

Anyway I've uploaded it to YouTube, http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=8g387yoGHf0

I got a few pics aswell, will upload them later. They're also shoddy quality unfortunately

Enjoy, I know I did!!!

Some crappy camera phone ones. There might be some in the rest of my friends photos, i'll have to wait until i get them to see.

wayniac · February 04, 2009, 06:55:36 AM

I have 5 or 6 photos on my phone, but they're pretty average quality. 2 of them have Trevor Dunn in them, I'll upload them later if anyone wants them

The Fool · February 04, 2009, 06:59:09 AM

you know me- i'll take anything i can get!
