I'd just like to let everyone know that after a couple of hiatus years I have returned to the message board. I saw the Beastie Boys at Good Vibrations in Sydney and it just woke me back up from my hibernation. I tried to re-start my account but still waiting for the email to confirm my password so I opened a whole new account. And here I am...
I had an awesome time at Good Vibes - the event itself wasn't organised too well (anyone else almost die watching J5 in that tiny tent??) but the Beastie's were their awesome selves. I know some people have posted that it's not the best they could do and blah blah blah. But I thought to myself 'Did I have a good time?'...answer..."Yes I did!'. That's all that matters to me.
One thing that irked me was that Justin Hemmes guy (who bankrolled the event) gyrating with his "ladies" at the side of the stage in a little white singlet. They made me feel a little queezy - flaunting their VIP status. It felt like - "Hey I got heaps of cash...so I'll stand up here with some chicks in bikinis (cause they're the people that flock to me) and dance badly while my shitty fake tan runs down my singlet"
Anyway - enough said.
So now I'm back...I've brought all my albums back out and now, thanks to a new job, have time to get back into it and start posting on these boards again. I'd been saying "Oh I saw the Beastie Boys a couple of years ago"...but then when I thought about it I'd seen them in 1997 (Hello Nasty tour) - a fucking DECADE ago!! Shit time gets away from us.
I'm also very excited at the prospect of a new album...or new something...as I heard through these boards that they were filming in Syd.
