Pendulum appreciation thread

[icy manipulator]

i do my best to pay out perth just because Tzar's from there, but pendulum is definately perth's best asset. when pom's say Pendulum is the shit when it comes to D n B, that's really saying something.

They're definitely the best act to come out of perth in a long time. i recommend everyone that likes drum and bass get Hold Your Colour and their Breezeblock set (y)

[ET]

F'ing ace.

[Tzar]

Pendulum are so widely known as the best Drum N Bass group that all the "hardcore" DnB DJs never play them anymore cuz it's too obvious. They are just on another level.

because the eastern states treat us like their poor, backwards cousins.
we're a large state with lots of resources, we contribute a lot to the economy, and don't get that much back.
something along those lines.

one of my friends is a crazy secessionist.

but the queen never approved it

Yeah I see your point I mean I'd never even heard of this potential dissent until I watched the WA news you'd think it would be something that would be relavent to the whole country. It is kind of significant considering it's almost half of Australia.
When they voted was it for a country that would be part of the commonwealth still or a republic?
Unleash our colonial shackles I say!

ok i'm going to read that link now.

quick summary from wiki:

Secession

Secessionism has been a recurring feature of Western Australia's political landscape since shortly after European settlement in 1829. Western Australia was the most reluctant participant in the Commonwealth of Australia. [2]. Western Australia did not participate in the earliest federation conference. Longer term residents of Western Australia were generally opposed to federation, however the discovery of gold brought several immigrants from other parts of Australia. It was these residents, primarily in Kalgoorlie but also in Albany that voted to join the Commonwealth, and the proposal of these areas being admitted separately was considered.

In a referendum in April 1933, 68% of voters voted for the state to leave the Commonwealth of Australia with the aim of returning to the British Empire as an autonomous territory. The State Government sent a delegation to Westminster, but the British Government refused to intervene and therefore no action was taken to implement this decision.

For social and cultural reasons the concept of secession is unlikley to be seriously considered in the future, even though commentators occasionally raise the idea due to economic reasons.

curiouser and curiouser, I honestly never knew that and I've studied politics and federation at uni.


You know my eastern PC wasn't happy with that westralia.org link it froze everything up and crashed IE when I tried to click it!

I can actually empathise, growing up in Tasmania it was the same shit. I guess the difference is as much as sir joe might have thought it a good idea tasmania can't actually sustain themselves as their own entity not like WA could.
PS the links working now...

well, it's an artificial beach nevertheless, lol. all the great beaches are up and down the coast. there's too many islands around brisbane to have any decent beaches with waves and shit
