Discussion on recent allegations about the use of illicit drugs in football is forbidden
  • IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING

    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

    We reserve the right to delete posts that offend against our above policy & indeed, to ban posters who are repeat offenders or who breach our code of conduct.

    WE HAVE BUILT A FANTASTIC ONLINE COMMUNITY AT DEMONLAND OVER THE PAST 23 YEARS & WE WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE CLUB WE LOVE & ARE SO PASSIONATE ABOUT.

    Thank you for your continued support & understanding. Go Dees.

Of all of the bands on the Soundwave list, the ones that I would be most interested in seeing are: Ministry (Jesus Built My Hot Rod is one of my favourite songs), One OK Rock (excellent Japanese band who my ex has a few albums of) and [censored] Up, purely because they look too wholesome to have a name like that.

Its official - I am the Dustin Fletcher of Festivals - the mind and heart is willing but the body is failing.

Saw Ministry - excellent.

Faith no more rocked the house. Chris Cornell - this is what i imagine i sound like when i sing ! Incubus - excellent. Disappointed with the Smashing Pumpkins - musically was fantastic but no connection with audience at all.

Slipknot - great visually and really tight.

Marilyn Manson - horrible.

Of the bands I hadn't heard of - Tonight Alive - Australian - really rocked - I got home and youtubed them and a bit Power pop when they are not live.

Hollywood undead - a cross between the beastie boys and linkin park - really enjoyed them.

It would be remiss of me if I didn't mention Steel Panther - they sent respect for women back to the dark ages with every five minutes getting girls to "show us your b00bs" - which all obliged. Their songs are so sexually blunt. They were sort of like watching a bad 1970's porn movie made into a musical. But I could not help but laugh.

I saw Chain at Bluesfest last year NB... you will love them. If anything, Phil Manning has improved since the old days (or maybe the technology just makes him sound better?).

it may be my failed eyesight and shot hearing that makes them sound good.

You know how you make allowances for bands as they get older ( aka - Mick Jaggers voice is not what it used to be).

No allowances needed for Chain - they were phenomenal. Matt Taylor's voice was the same as the back in the 70's.

You are also right about Phil Manning - he was on fire. I did go up o the stage during the break in sets and noticed that he had nothing on the floor in terms of pedals and switches .

Compare that to Mike Einziger of Incubus that had two acres of stuff on the floor around him.

This Saturday night I am seeing my favourite of all live bands - The Cat Empire. It is impossible not to come out of a Cat Empire gig smiling from ear to ear,

A few mates & I, armed with guitars & the like, gather weekly & murder a number of songs - some of which are obscure, some of which are much loved favourites. We don't discriminate, we are c r a p at all of them.

Here's one of our recent victims from the mid '80's. It's also one of my very favourite songs - I am a sucker for a jangly guitar sound - so I thought I'd throw it in here for the Usual Suspects in this thread

Love the Smithereens... and that particular song for some reason reminds me a little of another favourite band of mine, Husker Du's song Don't Want to Know if You Are Lonely.

Good stuff. Husker Du's Bob Mould later formed a band called Sugar. They provided another song for me & my mates to slaughter

Sorry I am a Luddite but I have tried to upload the latest Utube copy of Sir Viv Richards singing his new song Smokin Joe. Average Barry White simile but the video of Viv is classic stuff. Can you please help.

I'm assuming this is the one yeah?

To post a song - just copy and paste the address bar (here) for whichever youtube clip you want to post up. The address bar will initially just copy as the 'text' but once you press post, the video will then magically appear (well, maybe not magically but you get the drift)

By the way, the song is kinda cool in a corny sort of way ... I like it ... speaking of Viv, how good was he in the inaugural world cup? 3 direct hit run-outs (?) including both Chappell brothers I believe. What a player!

Thanks for that Macca. Great memories of the Master Blaster in those visuals.

My only claim to fame with Sir Viv is that I was holidaying in India in 1987/88 for a few months and found myself staying at the Presidents Hotel in Bombay at the time with the West Indian team. I happened to share the lift a number of times at night with Sir Viv I remember. Viv was always with some pretty young Indian girl heading up to a party on the upper floors as I remember it.

He was certainly a batting genius!

Sunnyboys were great -so good to see Jeremy Oxley in a good place....

However - The Cat Empire - You cannot help but dance and jump and sing when they play. I don't know how many times I have seen them but they never ever go through the motions ( unfortunately The Whitlams at the Corner - did go through the motions). There is a reason that the Cat Empire is my favourite live band - i always walk away ( albeit with a limp as I jump around like an idiot) with a huge smile on my face.

While on the subject of the Sunnyboys, I got to know Peter Oxley reasonable well through his time as bassist in a band called Shy Imposters who also featured Richard Bergman on guitar; the Sunnyboys evolved from this band. They also did a superb version of Jefferson Airplane's White Rabbit. The biggest shame about Peter Oxley was that he closed down his Newtown Pizza Restaurant.

I went to the Sydney Rock 'n' Roll & Alternative Market today at Sydney University's Manning Bar. One of the acts performing was Los Straitjackets (from the USA) with a guest vocalist Big Sandy. If they are heading your way (wherever that may be) do not, I repeat, do not miss them. Great morph of surf, rockabilly and rumble rock (a la Link Wray). Follow this link to a few photos I took of the day.

I knew nothing about him - but loved the name.

Looked up his stuff on youtube and now I am very excited !

One of the Bluesfest sideshows I believe? I will check out his YouTube material... did you take a gander at Los StraitJackets (immediately above) NB?

Went to a taping of Rockwiz last night - it was a 50's theme.

What a great night.

Firstly - Katie Noonan has the voice of an angel

Secondly - they had Col Joy on - he is a seriously funny man and can still sing well for a man of 78.

Did you get on the panel ? I reckon you'd go alright on music trivia knowledge

    ICEBREAKER by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have broken the ice for season 2024 with a pulsating come-from-behind victory over Port Melbourne in which it took the lead for the first time at the halfway mark of the final quarter. The game played in mild Autumn conditions in neutral territory at Kinetic Park, Frankston, never reached great heights in standard but it proved gripping in character at the end at the Casey Demons overcame the Borough to win by 15 points after trailing badly early in the second half.  P

    MAULED by Whispering Jack

    The writing was on the wall from the very first bounce of the football. The big men went up, Max Gawn more often than not, decisively won the ruck hit out and invariably a Brisbane Lions onballer either won the battle on the ground or halved the contest and they went at it repeatedly until they finally won out. Melbourne managed the first goal from Alex Neal-Bullen but after that the visitors shut out every area of Demon presence around the ground except in the ruck duels. It was a mauling.
