  • Pearl Jam Tour

    After ten long years, the rockers are back! Farian is a massive Pearl Jam fan and managed to secure tickets in the front rows for their November Sydney show.

    Any other Chookpeners going?

    With Eddie living in Bondi for a short stint many years ago and the boys having deep admiration for the Eastern Suburbs, I think we need to get Uncle Nick to contact their publicists and organise some neat marketing to stick up Crowe.

      Alive, Black, Even Flow…all great songs. I could never understand why they were lumped in with the grunge bands as I always think of them as just good old alternative rock.

        How was Taylor, bro?

        ---

        True story. I was teaching swimming the other day and the following happened.

        Girl 1: 'WOOOHOOOOO!!! I went up a level today and you didn't... sucked in!!!'

        Girl 2: 'All good... I'm going to Taylor Swift tonight so I'm not really bothered'

        Girl 1: [Stunned face]

        Jizzy: 'OOOOKAAAAAAY THANKS EVERYBODY... GREAT EFFORT TODAY AND I HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A LOVELY WEEKEND!!! HIGH 5 GIRL 1 AND GIRL 2, SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE BOTH WINNERS TODAY!!!'

            It was like Punk - I don't think many bands liked the term - I think it was Caroline Coon who gave this music that name when writing for the Melody Maker - Then you had New Wave and New Romantics

                  That would be epic



                  When you trust your television
                  what you get is what you got
                  Cause when they own the information
                  they can bend it all they want

                      Indeed...I must admit I'm a contributor to the 'Go Woke, go broke" ethos as I haven’t touched said cheese since its name change. Not that I ever bought it much, it really has its own distinctive flavour. I used to like Chicos too, those little chocolate jelly bubs. They are called something else now too I think.

                      Anyway I'm not helping the Pearl Jamness of this thread, so I'll depart and leave it to the experts.

                        You know me Jack when it comes to racism I’m a wokey / soft leftard (as Rocky likes to define), but I thought the Coon / Cheer cheese case was a bit more complex. Yes it’s a highly offensive slur but it also happens to be the founder’s actual name and the packaging had no other racist overtones. I don’t eat it either as I prefer other brands such as Bega or Aldi or even Woollies own label.

                            I didn’t know that about the author who coined the term Punk. And yes there are some strange genres and sub genres of music out there. You’ve also got Post Punk which I myself prefer to Punk. I know you’re a big Punk fan.
