Pretty sure it was $230 when I bought it for my son earlier this year
-
If people in vic are transferring their GFGs to people in Perth then it will reduce the number of tickets available for the p2 and p3 members
-
Haha no chance they get Jackson, nice try though

Haven't heard them but they're on my Spotify now. Did you see Wizard when they came out in 2005-ish? Supercoven and Return Trip were immense. I saw them at the old Green Room twice and went down to Geelong to watch them as well at some small pub with around 10-20 people watching. I reckon the owner was worried the bass was going to bring the place down 🤣 -

Haven't heard that one will have to give it a run. When I saw Sunn O))) play with Boris the bass almost burst my ear drums haha I don't know if I'm getting old or the music really just isn't that good anymore? Most younger people I know listen to more rap/r&b or electronic music these days which I still don't mind but nothing tops decent rock/metal. I've been told to give King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard a go but haven't got around to it yet On topic, from now until first bounce on Friday it's Dream Until You Die by Martini Martini & the Bone Palace Orchestra. If we lose it will be The World Is Broken by the same band 😂 If we win it's Take Your Skin Off and Dance PS - far better versions of these songs are found on their Live At The Famous Rainbow Hotel CD (which I was there for when they recorded) but it's not available online anywhere. -
Melbourne v Geelong 1954 Preliminary Final
Dr. Gonzo replied to Hassa Mann's topic in Melbourne Demons
Nah this time I reckon we won't make the same mistake and will get all 6 and the record 😉 -
It would want to be a good deal for Weid AND he would have to be driving it. He was pretty solid in 2020 and had a stress fracture in his hip which ruined his preseason this year. The guy is clearly a real confidence player, I'd still love to see what Goody and Choco can get out of him next year with a full preseason.
-
It might also mean he wants to come to Vic and Carlton are one of the only clubs with both the capital and the will to get a trade done. Richmond were talked about earlier this year and seem to have the capital I wonder why they've cooled? Or Cerra just doesn't want to go there (unlikely)?

I used to thrash Cradle of Filth when going to the gym, great workout music 🤣 Also used to love other old school punk/metal like Dead Kennedys, Pantera, Lard and the album Jello did with DOA. One of my favourite Doom/Stoner/drone bands is Boris, their albums/EPs Feedbacker and Flood are masterpieces. Early Electric Wizard are a favourite too (hence my avatar) and Time Travelling Blues by Orange Goblin is another great album, it just oozes cool for me with those thick guitar riffs. Loving this thread, I'm always looking for new bands to get in to so will be great to see what others on here are listening to. -
ESPN article - Past players inspiring the current team
Dr. Gonzo replied to spalding's topic in Melbourne Demons
I listened to the Deebrief interview of Glenn Lovett over the weekend and he was full of praise for Grinter and his role in keeping the past players in touch. He said Grinter texts him on his birthday each year without fail and said "if he's doing that to me then he's doing it for plenty of others as well". -
ESPN article - Past players inspiring the current team
Dr. Gonzo replied to spalding's topic in Melbourne Demons
Great article thanks for this. The section below warned my heart, this is the kind of stuff that creates a great club culture. "We were all welcomed to join in for the Saturday fitness session with the current guys and we ended up having 30 past players running alongside today's list. All of the current players then joined us for our regular breakfast catch-up, we had 70 odd Melbourne players mixing together after training." While a simple gesture, it's been symbolic of a new Melbourne ethos that has been noted by Grinter. "The biggest change I've noticed with the way the boys have been playing, is their want to play for each other and the broader club, not as individuals. The way they speak after games, it's all about the supporters at home and that connection is really felt from the past players," he says. "The club opened up to past players from far and wide for that session, no matter how many games they'd played. We all really cherished the connection of that day." Current Demon James Harmes has recently joined the Past Players committee, and an AFLW past player will soon be appointed. -

There's not much modern music I get into, mainly hip hop - its starting to feel like rock (or metal/doom etc) really is dead 😞 I'll have to give a listen to those you've mentioned. I love Cruelty & the Beast, I could listen to that album on a loop - really like Midian as well though I've struggled to get into any of their other stuff. I think it's the concepts of those two albums that get me hooked. I'm not a huge black metal fan but when albums are as good as those two its hard not to love it. Been playing Nas - Illmatic all day today, its an old one but just never gave it a listen before. Been flicking between "The World Is Yours" and "The World Is Gore" with Necro/Ill Bill/Sabac on their Street Villains album where they rap over the same beat. -

I love some classical music and Spotify has certainly helped with that because before that I knew I liked certain pieces but had no idea who the composer was or any way of identifying it! Spotify has also helped me get into some old blues as well, I knew I liked the style but didn't know where to begin with the artists. -

Got some old school White Zombie playing now, Blur the Technicolour and Blood, Milk & Sky from Astro Creep: 2000 Just gave Chance the Rapper's album Acid Rap a go - was good but I think I like my rap with more energy. Will play it again tomorrow. Cradle of Filth - Cruelty & the Beast up next on my playlist -
Glad people are happy to help out - only thing I would say is beware of new Demonland members requesting tickets as they may be looking to scalp tickets in Perth. I know similar things have happened in the past so you may want to take someone on their word and take the chance or you may be more considered in who you're helping out.
-
But if you're buying multiple tickets per membership how would they know?

What would they expect for Neale? He's 29 next May and had injury troubles this season. He's under contract for 2 more years apparently which makes things difficult but they couldn't expect too much for him considering he's coming into the tail end of his career.

I can't listen to that song without seeing Dave Chappelle's impression of his white friend, "Chip" https://youtu.be/4B93BoC9ylg&t=1m22s
