AUSTRALIA!! AUSTRALIA!!! AUSTRALIA!!!!

Hey guys,
As there seems to be a few Adelaidians on here now, let's organize a pre show get together.
No excuses for not turning up next week at the Adelaide Bowls Club, Kentown to see "The Saucermen" and "Lucky Seven" and burlesque performer "Miss Valens"! $10 at door! Come up and say g'day, I'll be running the Bambalam stall and various other bibs and bobs during the night. Sorry, a bit of selfish promotion there!
SUPPORT LOCAL REAL LIVE MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers Pete.

jeez, what is it with next Saturday ?? this is the 3rd different invite i've had for the 28th ... *sighs*

Hey Kid, have you got a picture where we can see more of that Stray Cats T-Shirt you're wearing in your Avatar? It looks interesting but i can't see the full design! Thanks
I honestly didn't think the Cats would do Australia! I remember Brian saying it was too far.
Anyway, the memories are going to be plenty by the time all the tours are over. And no doubt Tommy will have pictures of everything!

Hey Steve! Well I just took some photos of it for you On the front is like a live shot of the guys, and on the back it says 'got rockabilly?'.. I purchased it a few years ago off eBay, but they were also available in the Setzer web store for a while as well.

Thats the same Tshirt I purchased at the Uk Manchester gig in 2004!
I love it! Cant wait to get me a cool Tshirt at the Manchester gig this year Yee-Haw!!

Cheers PP

Oh yeah, i recognize that one now Kid Thank You! Appreciated. It looks so blue in your picture, i think that's what was throwing me!
Here's my Setzer t-shirt - i haven't got a close up!
OOPS That's a bit big, sorry!

Gday everyone, I've been coming in here for a bit and now thought it was bout time I registered and post a few comments.

I gotta say Im Sooooooooo Stoked that the "Cats" are finally coming to Oz. God I hope they come to lil old Adelaide. I'll travel anyways if they dont. I seen Slim Jim and Daryl Higham nearly a couple of years ago and that was awesome and I did see Stray Cats support Barnesy in 1990. Far out was it that long ago !!!

I'd urge everyone in Oz to email as many peeps as possible from radio stations to car clubs, car mags and music people, basiclly anyone who loves mucic lol. Theres alot of people out there that love Setzers guitar playin alone to warrant going along to the gigs.

Does anyone know whos promoting the shows yet?? I wanna get some tour posters up around the place like you always see when you drive around.

Damn Im excited can't wait "Bring It Back, Bring It Back, Bring It Back Again".............

Cheers
Paul

Haha I've already been emailing radio stations and local music magazines and what not


Kid.

Haha thanks 4 the welcome. Cool kid Setzer....me too....Ive emailed Robot International, TCB mag, Cruzin Mag, still got a quite a few more to go too, like local radio stations a heap of car clubs etc. I wont stop hehe

Hi Aussies,

I'm Bart, also known as Tekkel, from the Netherlands.
We (me and the wife) are going to attend the concert in London, in September.
And we hope that the Australian immigration authorities are fast enough to give us our permanent visas in time, so we can attend one of the Australian concerts next year.
We've got friends in Adelaide (Pooraka) and are planning a move to the Perth suburbs (Waikiki/Rockingham).

Bart (and Miranda and Boris)

Did you see the new image on BS.com? STRAY CATS ARE COMING TO AUSTRALIA!!

Oh, hang on a minute..


Late to the party.......abilly


Kid.

Wonder who the support will be. Wouldn't it be wicked if it was The Living End. Man, imagine the on stage jams between that lot.

RP

Yeah I've thought about that as well, except TLE are touring nationwide this September.. soooo, another nationwide tour in Feb seems unlikely.. HOWEVER, a surprise guest appearance by Chris Cheney would be cool.. GUITAR DUEL!!


Kid.

hey Kid,
They're doin the White Noise Tour, are ya gonna see them?
No offence to Chris Chenney, but I'd rather watch the Cats and soak it all in than open for them. My mate Matteo's band The Dragons is opening for the Cats in Italy, and he's nervous as hell not to stuff it up! I would be too! But what an experience though, and if ya were lucky enough to share the stage at some point in the tour, what a dream come true!
How are you and Andi gonna handle it?

Uhh, I'm not sure.. I've seen TLE a hell of alot over the years, more than I've seen any other band.. So if I like the new sounds in White Noise then I'll catch a show.. if I don't then I'll give it a miss.. How about you?


Kid.

Yeah. I've followed them since before Prisoner, maybe '96-'97, but only seen them twice.
Great live sound and playing.

I've followed them from before Prisoner as well!! NERRRR!


Kid.

The Living End was the first concert I ever saw. I was about 7 or 8 and dad snuck me into one of the local RSL they were playing at.

It was just after there CD came out that was like all Red and Black on the front. I think it may have been Self-Titled.

Doesy, up until now every one of their CD's have been black, red and white in colour scheme But it probably was self titled.


Kid.

Lol Damn! I've only got that one, Modern Artillery and some other one which is burnt. It had West End Riot on it and Bloody Mary.

I dig Cheney's chops though. He's the most.

Young lady,
Not trying to upstage you, but only meant to say that all of time I've listened to them, I've only seen them twice.


Seen the Cats alot more than you, and met Brian, so nerrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought you trendy ozcats down under might be interested in this for the forthcoming tour:-

Hi Everyone,

I went to their shows in Melbourne in the 80's and then in the 90's and a couple of shows in England and every one has been mind blowing for me.

CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Karen

WOOT! I just saw the first tour posters up in the city on my drive home tonight.. They are the same as the european posters, pretty sweet! and MASSIVE! But they were pasted onto the wall so I couldn't remove one (there were about 5 all in a row.. it was a wall of Stray Cats!)..

Well I thought it was cool


Kid.

Next time ya drive by, take a photo - that sounds very cool! I'd love to see it!
