Easy, guess which song it is from the opening lines.

Don't cheat either, where's the fun in that?!?

1: So you're nice with the pen man? Are you with them man? Well you paint a pretty picture but it ain't a fucking Rembrandt.

2: We never asked for your permission or requested assistance, so when I put my hand on my heart and beg for forgiveness.

3: I sit back and crack a six pack from the plastic. I'm on a quest to get spastic.

4: I need a deep rest. I'm depressed. Falling leaves and we's a leaf less.…

Thursday 3rd of May 2007 – Skool Daze Tour (Rubys Lounge)

Performing in order: Combat Wombat/Mista Savona/Astronomy Class (feat. The Tongue)

Last night I drove myself down the road to Rubys Lounge in Belgrave for the first show of the nationwide Skool Daze Tour. I walked in expecting quite a few people to be there and to my - and I'm sure the artists - disappointment the place is pretty much empty. And I'm not joking, I'd say at this stage there were maybe 15 people there.

I buy myself a beer and sit down…

This is a list of who I saw perform in 2006 and how I thought they went on stage (something different and more enjoyable than reading a list of bands and nothing else). Any comments or questions are welcome.

Def Wish Cast - They were really good. Did a bit of break dancing and all of that in between…kept the crowd involved which is always a plus. They performed pretty well too. I like their songs and they performed them pretty well. They're kepping the bboy alive!

Hermitude - Pretty good live! They had some live remixes etc and made…

1 - Astronomy Class - Exit Strategy
Astronomy Class are a new Aussie hip-hop group that consists of Ozi Batla (from The Herd), Chasm & Sir Robbo. They released "Exit Strategy" late in the year after being hyped as one of the all time greats. Pleasantly they met their expectations, I haven't stopped listening to this album since I bought it which has been going on 2 months now! This is easily my favourite album of the year, Australian or not, from any genre. I saw these guys perform live and they were really good…they have a nice laid back…

For those who don’t know, I recently went to an Aussie Hip-Hop show at the Prince of Wales, Melbourne. Resin Dogs were the headliners with Def Wish Cast and Hermitude as the supporting acts along with some guest MC’s for the Resin Dogs set.

DJ G-San was there from the start playing some pretty cool tracks. He was mixing up some hip-hop - mainly artists from the US like Jurassic 5 - and then throwing in a few old soul tracks as well like Marlena Shaw’s “California Soul”. Anyway he was there until about 10:30 pm just setting the mood…

Hey, I'm just going to talk about some of the groups I'm joined to, and please check them out if you think they sound good.

Aussie Hip-Hop

This is my own group but that's not why I'm recommending it. It's pretty active and there are quite a few people in there who know their stuff when it comes to Australian hip-hop. Anyway, there are a lot of reviews and recommendations there and also news on Aussie hip-hop so it doesn't matter where you are with Aussie hip-hop, you'll fit in and find the group useful. You don't need to be…

This is more for myself, so it's not very interesting.

100,000 tracks have just been played…quite a lot really. My 100,000th song was "M-Phazes - Come On" which is a hip-hop track from the Gold Coast, Australia. It's actually a really nice song.

I just realised 1 year of using Audioscrobbler/Last.fm has gone past. Time really does fly it doesn't seem that long ago that I first stumbled across this site via someone talking to me about it.

Anyway I've found it really useful and interesting (and a bit addictive) as well as really getting me into listening to music more closely and widely (if that makes sense?). I pretty much have music constantly playing on my computer now and it's really got me listening to songs I wouldn't normally listen to much. Before I would just play a couple of songs from…
