It looks like it might actually happen, folks. Check out the video in this. https://beat.com.au/iron-maiden-hint-at-tour-of-australia-next-year/

What do we think of it? The song is decent enough, but the sound on the video is weirdly tinny, like an mp3 ripped at 128k.

Steve Harris has this side project and an album - The Burning - that was released four days ago. I'm checking it out on Spotify. Has anyone else given it a listen?

Tickets are on sale on Friday. Who's gonna go? I am. http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=GUNSNROS17 The only show I've seen at the MCG is Sound Relief. What do you fine folks think would be the best bet for a ticket in a place like that?

Let's have a thread to post random stuff we read or hear about music. So to start off: There's the talk about Axl Rose fronting AC/DC. Fanciful, but I can see how the rumour might come about given vocal styles. GnR apparently only have six shows booked so far, but a guy at work told me before...

Do any of you listen to any music in a language other than English? I'm keen to expose myself to stuff I might not have heard before, and I don't tend to hear much foreign language stuff unless I seek it out. So, any recommendations would be appreciated. I don't really care what genre.

So, what gigs have you been to in recent times, and how were they? I went to Kyuss Lives at the Palace Theatre last night. Cool show, once again. John Garcia seems to have slimmed down a bit since their last tour. Nick Oliveri isn't touring with them at the moment; I'm not sure what the...

I thought of you when I was in Virginia a few months ago.

Listening to certain songs/albums gives me strong memories of certain situations. If I hear Strapping Young Lad's City album or I Should Coco by Supergrass it reminds me of sitting in a flat I shared with my dad in England in 1997 and listening to them through my PS1, while hearing certain INXS...

Have a good one mate.

They say you should never meet your heroes, because the experience may be a disappointment. Personally I'm always worried people I admire will turn out to be arseholes, so I tend to do not much more than ask for a photo or signature if I meet musicians or sportsmen. So, have you ever been...

Funk always sounds cool when I happen upon a funk band at a gig somewhere, but I don't really listen to any (unless you count Infectious Grooves). Is anyone a fan? If so, please recommend some bands. I love a bit of slap bass.

I was watching Zappa Plays Zappa that I recorded off ABC2 and thought it was pretty sweet. I've never listened to any Zappa before. Recommendations? Some bits sounded a fair bit like Dream Theater. Was he one of their influences?

You no doubt read this somewhere already, but he's dead. http://www.theage.com.au/lifestyle/people/gary-coleman-dies-20100529-wlvm.html?autostart=1

Which songs do you never want to hear again? Here's a few that come to mind: Total Eclipse of the Heart American Pie Brown Eyed Girl

Predictions etc? The season's off to a decent start.

Anyone else going to see them? I'm sure Bucko is. I went to see them at Etihad last night. There was a shitload of people there. Big stage too, perhaps not surprisingly.
