Beauty & Style Awkward Flirting Stories - Part 2

It's a completely different song. "U don't know me"

Ah, okay. When you said Sandstorm is the GOAT my brain kind of imploded. Some memories surfaced!

 

[Geelong_Sicko]

Yeah idk. Naked women and footy for me doesn't mix right. Would prefer to go to the strippers on a separate day

I hear ya. There's definitely a different crowd and a different atmosphere before a footy game than there is any other day!

 

[Geelong_Sicko]

I miss pubs with yellow ceilings where your feet stick to the carpet.

The Tote may in fact be the last bastion.

EDIT: The Footscray Hotel is frozen in time. No shit. You walk into that pub and you physically travel back to the 1980s. Barman accepts plastic money of course, but it wouldn't surprise me if he accepted these

 

[GreyCrow]

I definitely remember girls like you. 20 bucks was all you needed when there were dollar pots and what was it? Five dollar spirits?

The women werent paying for their drinks anyway or of they did they were the ones that got sipped on until the next sucker bloke offered to buy

 

[GreyCrow]

And other people to buy them for us, of course

I need a catchy metal song to get the sandstorm out again. Hey I know, one of the catchiest songs in metal!

When they were here in 2023 this tune was epic, the whole crowd shouting the lyrics, Dave barely "sang" any of it

Yeah it's a super-fun song. Probably the funnest song I've ever heard live. Most brutal is of course Post Mortem/Raining Death by Slayer And Angel of Death of course. I wouldn't survive the pit now with my dodgy kneecaps (lil bastards wanna pop out when I'm jumpin' and pushin') but man, mosh pits used to be FUN!

Singalongs suit me best these days

I think that song has Dave's best vocals, he's not a good singer but he's good at that snarly barking sort of vox.

And yeah I avoid the pit these days as well, as you'd know at metal gigs if you want to circle pit you can but if not always plenty of room outside of the pit to chill and bop along.

Gettin' old sucks, hey?

F*ck, didn't mean to be a downer

Rage Against the Machine at a 90s BDO was the craziest mosh pit I ever saw. No way was I going near that.

I saw em at 2007 BDO, it was nuts, really thought the crowd was gonna lose it.

 

[Geelong_Sicko]

I went to two, 1997 and 1998. I went to 1997 to see Brazilian metal heroes Sepultura but frontman Max Cavaleras broke his leg somehow and the band cancelled. We got Fear Factory instead. They were good, but I wanted Sepultura damnit!!

Would you prefer the alternative Benjamin Button

I got excited with seeing a new AFS post all I've seen is dribble the last few pages...

Yet here you are. Adding absolutely nothing

 

[gaskin]

Never went to BDO but was extremely tempted about 10 years or so ago when Rammstein came. They are in my top 5 all time fave bands and I am spewing I opted against it.

I never missed a Soundwave, though, from the time I was 18 until it was cancelled.

Well I did ask Geelong_Sicko out on a date so there’s that

Hey I didn't even get a reply to my offer

Hey I didn't even get a reply to my offer

F*ck, sorry Shell! I won't be down for Easter Monday this year unfortunately. I'll be down in June though! Gonna see a metal band with the_interloper! Wanna come? Bullet belts are optional!

Ghosted?

I went to the first BDO here in 93 which was held on the grounds of Adelaide Uni and I missed seeing Disposable Heroes, Sonic Youth and Iggy Pop because my boyfriend at the time had a bad trip. I still guilt trip him about it today when I run into him.

1993 Big Day Out tour featured Nirvana didn't it?

Previous year when it was only Sydney and Melbourne.

 

[Neese]

Luckily Stooges came back a few times.
I saw Sonic Youth do Daydream Nation and it was brilliantly epic.
