Walter Meego - Forever

Enjoy.

:)

You thought I was dead.

But I'm not. I was held captive in somewhere in subterranean Tokyo, captive by a group of long haired Japanese louts by the name of Boris, and they subjected me to their latest album Smile. After the first bar I developed Stockholm Syndrome, and I never wanted to escape.

This album kicked me square in the area between the stomach and the balls. Thats where it hurts the most. But when it kicked me, it stepped on me and twisted its boot into my bowels. The stunning cacophony of 'Ka Re Ha Te Ta Sa Ki - No One's Grieve' tied me up in firmly knotted ropes, whilst tracks like 'Buzz-In' beat me into submission. But I begged for more....

The next thing I felt was a brutal left-right combo demolish my face. The left, 'My Neighbour Satan' began with its soothing psychedelic glove, which gave way to the crushing weight of the fist, sounding like a chainsaw cutting through concrete as it tore through my cheek. The right was a track called 'Statement', a more direct punch that knocked the nose right off my face with a knuckle duster full of wailing guitar.

After my tormentors were done, they played '[ ]', 15 minutes of beautiful anesthesia to sooth my aching bones and heal my bloody wounds. Now that I have told you of my wonderful ordeal, I must catch the next flight back to Tokyo...

Sellout

The return of my parents from an overseas holiday brought groans that the house is not as clean as they would have liked and gifts of a shiny new Ipod Classic. After resisting for so long and pretending I was above the grip of the Apple juggernaut, I have joined the inflated ego world of Apple users and no my shit does not stink!

So ofcourse what any good Apple slave does when they recieve an Ipod is to log onto the Itunes store and purchase some mp3s, mp4s, audiobooks, podcasts and a whole host of other things we don't need.

Before I delve into my main point, a side note for you all... Why is it in the world of sophisticated phones, playstations, xboxes and all the rest that there are people stupid enough to buy games to play on their Ipods? You have this circle clicker and a a button or two to press yet somehow people think there are games interesting enough to pay money for... it baffles the mind i think.

Back to my main point.

Now whilst being disgusted at my obedience to the corporate world, I did find browsing on the Itunes store a tad exciting. Ofcourse anyone who is more familiar with the whole process; you get an ipod, you download itunes which in turn gives you monkey simple access to the itunes store which you hopefully access via your mac computer (which i did not).

This brought me into the wonderful world of Audiobooks and podcasts. Flight of the conchords are a perfect example of the exposure you get from lending your brand to the podcasting apple machine.

Moving on.

Audiobooks grabbed my attention greatly and i became quite refreshed by the idea of downloading books and having them read to me whilst I conduct my day to day drag at work.

This all lead me to find "The Ricky Gervais Show".

Alongside his friends Karl Pilkington and Stephen Merchant, Ricky Gervais just ponders random (often pointless) facts about the world with his two partners in crime. It's all very Derek and Clive, without the drugs or heavy swearing but it is none the less side slapping at times. Whilst I must say Ricky Gervais is fast becoming the funniest man on the planet in my opinion, this little podcast does serve to demonstrate his ability to take a backward step and really allow the deadpan comedy of Karl Pilkington to take centre stage.

It all moulds together well for some good old fashioned laughs and something I'd highly recommend you check out.

NOW

Normally here at whiteboydancefloor we aim to give you something to download from our very site. However I am going to embrace my new found sell out status and merely appeal this post to those royal enough to be Itunes / Ipod frequenters. If you head to Itunes Store and search for the "Ricky Gervais Show" there is three seasons (which translates to hours and hours) of comedy gold for you to check!

Now i think of it, I suppose any of these upper class snooty Itunes people worth their salt would have already got the downlow on all three seasons already. But still, maybe you've been too busy making high powered business decisions and commenting on your thoughts regarding the entire collection of Andre Rieu.

Until next time my fellow narrow minded fudge-maccers.

Anarchy In The Grass

I'd just like to draw peoples attention to a statement I made last month, about the time that the announcement for Splendour In The Grass was made:

Where I shake my head.. the ticketing system. Anyone who went, and thousands of people who didn't (and consequently left abusive messages on the Splendour myspace) will express disgust at how it all went down last year. The website crashed repeatedly and many who were lucky enough to even get to the ticket screen were thrown to the back of the queue. I sat there with a phone in hand, redialling with my feet whilst constantly refreshing for god knows how long. I got through eventually, on the phone. This year there will be no phone and the hopes and dreams of every Splendour attendee sit in the hands of Qjump.

If I dont get my ticket because the site goes down, heads will roll. Please Splendour, make me eat my words in some delicious yet environmentally friendly way that makes my crap smell nice.

Well, yesterday was the day. The big day when tickets go on sale and people like myself go into a state of anxiety awaiting confirmation of our attendance. Got through at exactly 9 o clock, straight to the ordering page, did so, entered credit card details and then sat waiting for the order to finish 'processing'. It never did finish. Minutes later the order timed out and it appeared that we were in for another fiasco. And we were.

The 'queue' involved a pink line that moved backwards and forwards at will, clearly not indicative of anyones position in the line (for those who even GOT to the line). The site crashed (surprise surprise) and the SITG forum, not to mention Triple J radio were inundated with calls and messages asking 'WTF?'. Releases were slow in coming and didn't really answer anyones questions at the time. Just after 12 I got through again and tried to reorder my 3 tickets. Only to be told I could order ONE. While this might have led me to believe that the 3 had originally been processed, without being able to go to my account information (due to the site shitting itself) I had no way of being sure. Neither did anyone else. Last night at about 9 I finally got on to see that the order HAD gone through, but its status was, and still is 'Not Finished'. Until it is, I don't know for sure that I've got my tickets. Im 90%-95% percent sure, but not 100. Now I have to play the waiting game for an order that was apparently placed at 9:04 yesterday morning. Not to mention the fact it means that staying on for as long as I did was completely pointless. But come on - waiting for hours on end to see if your order was even placed let alone confirmed is fucking ridiculous.

So did Splendour make me eat my words? No. With the lack of phone and outlet sales did everyone get fucked over like I anticipated? Yes. What, if any, research was conducted after the disaster of last year? It just escapes me how the situation that unfolded yesterday (and is still unfolding) was allowed to happen. How was it not foreseen? Will this help with NEXT YEARS ticketing system? Do I even have tickets? This year has thrown up more questions than it has answered, and created more problems than it has solved. I'm sure that I'm one of many people who will walk into the Belongil fields with a feeling of relief but wondering if we'll even BE THERE a year later.

Thats if we even get our tickets....

A Letter From Phil Tripp

If you haven't yet, go and read the previous two entries (one two) so that this will make much better sense:

Greets again. I see you want to keep this interchange going but unfortunately, I've got a lot on my plate as I just got back frome Melbourne. The typos in my last email were due to me sitting just outside the Virgin lounge, sucking up my emails on the free broadband that leaked through the walls and being in a bit of a rush.

So what's up now...

i'd have to be a bit slow in the head to persist with my 'free' news references
but i would like to ask the REASON the price has been included.

Sure, no problem. Just like the music directory, which is a resource that coasts about a quarter of a million a year in research, post, staff, printing bills and taxes, we have expenses in doing the daily news feed too. So there came a point at which we felt confident that, over a few years of giving the convenience (important word here) of the links that we research each day, we had both a free and a paid model. All we did was take away the free one and give people a choice as to whether they wanted to pay for the convenience. They are not paying for the links, they are willing to exchange value for value in our doing the work in finding news relevant to their career or job direction and providing it to them in a timely and consistent manner.

Sure they could do this themselves, but they see the value in our harvesting the info and delivering it to them. $2 a week or 40 cents a day doesn't seem to disturb them.

In your case, you got the yah yahs because we pulled a convenient resource for you and eleceted to make it a business model.

Oh, and by the way, you referred to the Australasian head of Billboard. That's Christie and he has nothing to do with this. He's a writer for us and many other people, so please correct your blog

I know there was probably a release on the site prior to it happening but, well, I obviously didnt read it.

We did a survey on the site the week before we made our decision and asked about the value people see in it, how long they've been coming, how often and whether they would pay for it. By the results, we made our decision.

Im not pointing the finger and I've now learnt to accept whats happened and lose my outrage.

I think that outrage would have been a wasted emotion here. Why lose stomach lining over someone else who has provided a free service for a long time deciding to get micropayments for it. There are bigger issues you might save outrage for.

Obviously its going well and thats cool but yeah, just a breif (it can be a matter of words) description of the circumstances that led you to this choice. then i will leave you alone forever - i promise!

Tell you what you can do and it will make it easy for you so you don't have to do so many keystrokes... just cut and past this into your blog and your readers can get the drift.(i was gunna do that anyway)

I don't think what we did was of any real consequence in robbing anyone of news or their right to get it. We were not obligated to provide a free service forever. It's kinda like those women you see at the supermarket on Saturday with their electric frypans giving away samples of weenies or other junk food. Just because they are giving you a sample doesn't mean that their business model needs to cater to your desire for a free meal. If you want that, head for Newtown Centre and say Hare Krishna three times...

Adios Amigo.

And there we go. From the horses mouth. Not that Mr Tripp has Equine blood but yes, a thorough answer. He even explained the typos! That I didn't make reference to in the email! Apologies for referring to Christie incorrectly in the previous entry as well. Did I get spanked? Oh yeah. It all makes sense ultimately and while I don't agree with parts of it I can see why the measures have been put in place. I would sincerely (and I'm not being a smart ass) like to thank Phil for participating in this conversation. Someone who's willing to fairly justify their decisions AND take the time to deal with the persistent annoyance and ideologies of a 23 year old with a bit to learn.

The fact that a reference is made to this blog also means that there are people who read this thing. If only the other 4 would start writing again.

Either that or Mr Tripp was 'strengthening his fingers' Googling (sorry Phil, I had to)

Right Of Reply

The other day I wrote a blog about money, how much it costs for shit these days and the fact that nothing is free anymore (not even Tibet). Apart from Murdoch I described how the people down at 'themusic.com.au' have now started charging their readers for LINKS - not articles - LINKS - to articles written by other people relevant to the music industry. I sent them an email to express my disappointment - this is what it said:

Hi, I'd just like to say, thanks very much for providing your helpful links and music industry-related stories for FREE for the past god-knows how many years. I'd also like to express my disappointment at your decision to become a 'subscriber service'. You say you're following the trend 'like so much digital content in our online universe' - BS. You find news stories from other sites, you dont even write them. Your creative contribution is little to none and now you expect us to pay you for it? To pay you guys a hundred dollars a year to link to another article that someone wrote on another site? Are you seeing how stupid this sounds? Thanks for showing the headlines for free though, thats such a great help. At least I can copy and paste them in google and get a link straight to the article through someone who doesn't want to charge me for it. Surely if you guys were intent on making more money you could just charge people a little more for the AMID every year. Maybe you could sell off some advertising space or something. The drum media remains jam-packed with news and information and still manages to stay FREE for the most important person - the consumer. With you guys its the other way around, compile the information for free every morning, then charge us for it. Thank God for Google. Yours in... frustration Javid van der Piepers

Yes I got a bit silly/angry/ridiculous but the first few paragraphs in particular sum up my feelings succinctly. Surely these guys, including the Australasian head of Billboard, could come up with some other way. Not thinking I would get a reply I was surprised to see an email in my inbox no less than an hour after sending that, from one Phil Tripp

Thanks for your email and glad you enjoyed free for so long. Yes we leave the headlines up and yes we are going to a monetised model. So faqr, you're our only complainer but I'm sure there will be a few more.

The good news is that you will be able to strengthen your fingers by Googling. And thanks for the email which show you care and gave us in the office a few chuckles. I know you were trying to be funny.

All the best

PHIL TRIPP

Strengthen your fingers by Googling? And I'M trying to be funny? Smart ass! However through his humour respect developed. Notice though, that there is no reasoning to indicate why the change was made, despite me being the first complaint so far (the service only switched a few days before). Mr. Tripp is incredibly experienced in the industry and is well respected. In the time between emails I realised that I myself wasn't really going to change anything but it was nice to be noticed. Its just a pity he stood on the fine line between taking me seriously and labelling me a joke. I sent a courteous reply:

Thanks for your prompt reply Mr Tripp. Its nice to know that you guys do read (and absorb instead of discard - regardless of whether or not it will change anything) the opinions of your readers. Have a good one and let me know if the free news comes back. lol.

Yes I wanted to keep being a smartass (well if he can..) but I was happy to leave it at that. My opinion had been expressed, he had heard it, it wasn't going to change anything. I could accept that (although I don't know why - not even a reason provided!). I open my email this morning and what do I find? Apart from porn spam - this:

THE FREE news won't be coming back as we have a pretty hefty takeup of the new world order. Samed thing happened when we took down the free music directory after a few years. Data drug dealing we call it - All the best

Apart from the typo's (I'm sure he's not illiterate) this email got me angry again. A pretty hefty take up of the new world order? That just means they've already got enough suckers paying for it to never have to go back. Data drug dealing? Just like the directory? Its all making sense. Provide people with an absolutely amazing resource that can be relied on. Scope the market and make sure there are enough desperados who will pay to help you make a profit and then fuck everyone else off giving them no option but to join? I thought this guy was a funny man and sure I think he's still trying to make a joke but thats just.. wrong! Or as some would say 'Its business'. Not losing my head another reply was sent:

ok ok ok i'd have to be a bit slow in the head to persist with my 'free' news references but i would like to ask the REASON the price has been included. I know there was probably a release on the site prior to it happening but, well, I obviously didnt read it. Im not pointing the finger and I've now learnt to accept whats happened and lose my outrage. Obviously its going well and thats cool but yeah, just a breif (it can be a matter of words) description of the circumstances that led you to this choice. then i will leave you alone forever - i promise! javid

That was about an hour ago. I wonder if I can expect a prompt reply...

To be continued - hopefully.

Freedom Of Press

Rupert Murdoch is a busy, and rich man. Kind of makes you want to take him for all he's worth. You know, get a scheme going where you become a lost family member/love of his life/child given up for adoption, earn his trust, get him to leave you everything in the will and then STAB HIM IN THE FACE REPEATEDLY until he's gone.

If anyones capable of doing it - it's 50 cent. For those who aren't aware, in 2005 Murdoch and his baby Newscorp started 'Myspace Records' (you've probably seen it floating around) which is all well and good but since their inception they havent had a marquee performer. Insert 50 cent. Insert $300 MILLION after that and you've got yourself a deal. Possibly.

Negotiations are still underway but if someone came up to me offering that much money for me to make some shit music I'd do it. But why do the rich need that kind of money? That is the question. Is it morally OK for him to accept such a large amount given his already existing wealth? And on the reverse side should Murdoch be able to accumulate more wealth by taking a controlling interest in 50 Cents career? Not that he needs Murdochs help, making himself $400m last year from selling his ass, investments and name to Coca Cola. He loves those multinationals. But is it greed? And is it the beginning of another way for NewsCorp to control global media?

Locally - I've been a keen studier of the music industry, both locally and abroad since my days back at Nirimba under the tutelage of Mr. Geoff Weuele. It was there that I was introduced to the wonders of themusic.com.au - a free online service giving you direct links to the stories deemed most important by leader Phil Tripp. Heading over there to check the news feed the other day it was brought to my attention that these links are no longer free and that the site has "gone from free-view to monetised like so much digital content in our online universe" - this is a fucking joke.

These guys don't write the articles, they just find them and put them on a list every weekday. Some of them are good, some of them are useless. Now they expect you (and me) to pay $100 a year for the service of looking through other peoples articles. I've got no problem if the news sites want the cost of a paper. I've got no problem if these writers get royalties from the costs incurred - but NO. These guys are charging you money to look at something THEY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH. I highly doubt that any of the people operating this service are strapped for cash, and I'm sure that someone smart like Mr Tripp can think of other ways to make money.

Luckily for all of us, despite not linking the articles the people at Immedia they still provide the headlines. Headlines which can be copied and pasted into GOOGLE for a direct link to the article.

Until we have to pay for that too, as less and less (and less) becomes free.

Can you imagine if we charged people? We'd go broke.

Cog @ The Enmore - 16/05/2008

Last night I was lucky enough to be part of a large entourage headed towards the Enmore to see Cog. Been a big Cog fan for a long time and I was confident I wouldn't be disappointed. Neither of the two support acts for the evening were Australian, let alone from Sydney. While Jakob don't particularly interest me with their ambient instrumental rock, Kora were a band I was dying to see.

Unfortunately there was no opportunity to see either as we arrived about 20 minutes before Cog started, and to hear every single person say how good Kora were sunk a little disappointment into my heart. But these things can't be helped and we were there to see a show for crying out loud. The house lights went down, the crowd got loud and then even louder as John Farnhams' 'You're the voice' played as an intro. With the audience in full voice the band took the stage and then contrasted the hype by opening with the first track from the new album - No Other Way, which went down well but restarted the momentum. Current single 'Bird Of Feather' was next and it really is one of those songs with a chorus that screams stadium rock.

By this point there were already a few points of notice - the light show was unlike anything I've seen at the Enmore. Very colourful, lots of strobes and flashes as well as spotlights and a thick (sometimes too thick) cloud of smoke enhancing it all. One of the best I've seen lately. The music sounded brutal and certainly put to rest peoples doubts (mine included) about how the new material would go live. The vocal mix however was uneven throughout the night, sometimes absolutely perfect, and at other times completely incomprehensible. A particular highlight though was the crowd participation during 'Real Life' (watch the vid)


Throughout the night front man Flynn Gower engaged the crowd, speaking of how they had played to their biggest audience the night before in Melbourne before adding 'the biggest audience until now' to rapturous cheering. He also gave an explanation towards the current album - no doubt under fire from people who haven't the patience or understanding to comprehend that the band didn't want to just do the last album over again. It was good to see him address it but at the same time, for him to do so obviously means there has been significant criticism. (The album is fantastic, go and buy it).

Being so relatively close throughout the night I happened to notice something perculiar though. For those of you who don't know what a click track is, it's a metronome fed directly into each band members ears through a monitor. Alot of bands use them and given Cog's development in sound, use of samples and lighting cues I am more than understanding of the fact that they may need to use one for consistency. What I can't get behind is when I can hear backing vocals, the drummer and bassist both have microphones, and neither is singing. This doesn't seem to bother other people as much as it does me. A click track is one thing, but a backing track? Sadly it casts negative aspersions on the integrity of their live performance. And it makes me wonder how often they actually do it, if they've done it previous times before this album came along. The night closed with no encore. While I'm happy to settle with that the amount of good material that was left out for the sake of some of the newer songs was also disappointing.

In conclusion I have mixed feelings about last night. On the plus side the music was fantastic, the crowd was bloody awesome and in the 'price vs set length' category these guys come in second (to JBT 02 - $30 for over 3 hours), $40 for over an hour and a half jam packed including the supports (if you caught them) it was value. On the minus side were the setlist (this is only a personal thing, play some more New Normal if you ask me, at least Anarchy OK ffs), which was still good. 'The Spine' sent the place bananas and a trek back to the first EP with 'Moshiach' was freaking awesome. For the neutral spectator and the Cog fanatic, last nights show was perfect. For me though? I'm a little disillusioned. I'm sure backing vox (mimed or not) will be sorted out as the tour progresses so don't let me stop you from catching them. Cog are a great band, and certainly worth the $40 - I'll leave it at that.

The Chaser's Age Of Terror Variety Hour

Just a quick warning to anyone who's got a ticket and is going to see the aforementioned show - this review contains spoilers that may dampen your experience so please don't read on. And if you don't like the Chaser don't read on either, and CERTAINLY don't go down to the bottom and comment on your distaste. Show it by going away.

So yes, anyway, while my Birthday was over a month ago the last of my presents was collected yesterday evening as I went down to the Enmore Theatre for the Chasers live show. Whilst I knew that it was going to be hilarious, I and the people around me had no idea what to expect. The stage was set up simply with a lectern/laptop as well as the obligatory keyboard.

The lights went down and the show began with the voice of Andrew Hansen telling us that everyone had been replaced except himself before he walked out on stage. He welcomed everyone and asked that no photos or videos be taken (which is unfortunate but I obliged - so no photos for you!) before lambasting someone in the crowd for being late. The spotlight moves, a song begins and the latecomer is revealed as Julian Morrow, awkwardly squeezing his way between people trying to get to a seat. The second verse sees Chas Licciardello running in from the back as an even 'later (than Heath Ledger)' person before the two combine to ask patrons whether they want an ass or balls in their face (a common problem when trying to get to the middle of a full row). The stage is then filled with the 5 of them as they point at newcomer (to the fivesome anyway) Dominic Knight and ask 'who the fuck are you?' before telling us 'he's an extra in the background in that bit from season 2'.

The song ends, the crowd applauds and the first part of the show is a very tv-esque slideshow presentation filled with the usual political jokes changed around approapriately for the Rudd government. Morrow took to the stage by himself for a while, telling us of the new love in his life, Lara (the voice automated machine for Vodaphone) - she's there to take his call 24 hours a day and a song follows with excellently used samples from the service ('hold on one moment while I put you through' will never sound the same again).

The musical numbers didnt end there. A shirtless (and to be honest - hypnotically hideous) Knight came out with a guitar to sing a hilarious song about the plight of the hairy man (and god is he), whilst Hansen kept the tunes alive all night with a Python-esque grin and also contributing songs about Tree Man getting lots of roots as well as the wonderful joys of incest conveyed through the appropriate medium - country music.

Music isn't the only thing the Chaser are good at though and the slideshow presentations that occurred throughout the night were fantastic. First up was Craig Reucassel with a marketing and branding segment - about his arse. From its humble beginnings on Facebook to a news report on South Australian television, he showed us just how to get your product out there. Julian also presented a powerpoint presentation on.. powerpoint presentations and how everything can be made a hell of a lot easier. From general conversation to Hamlets Soliloquy. The best presentation however, was left to Licciardello - who conducted a social experiment on AdultMatchMaker. Needless to say it exposed the giant amount of deviants out there who will offer money to women for sex, lie about who they are to different women for sex, tell you how nice you seem even though you've told them to blatantly fuck off (for sex) and the unfortunate fact that by being a completely NORMAL person, you aren't really eligible for the world of online dating.

Current Affairs programs, and particularly Today Tonight were still on the agenda, with Andrew and Chas dressing up as Anna Corens for the 'Anna Coren Segue Challenge' where the audience were asked to pick two random topics for each of them to segue between, each one having to take a minimum of thirty seconds. The final one involved the two taking alternating sentences to try and get from 'erectile dysfunction' to 'desalination' - hilarious stuff. The musical '8 Days That Didn't Exactly Shake The World' - based on the political carreer of Frank Forde (Australias shortest serving PM) dealt with the big decisions at a difficult time (changing the carpet in the lodge) with rousing hilarity. Osama bin Laden was once again not safe with an Al Qaeda meeting taking place on stage with the 3 Mohammeds (and Pete) talking marketing strategies, equal opportunity (no women - praise Allah!) and inflation (72 virgins now being 83).

The audience weren't safe either with 'Chaser Trivia' bringing two people up on stage to compete with Craig. One was a 14 year old girl who, upon taking the lead was told 'You're beating Craig!' to which Ruecassel replied 'You're not old enough to do that'. The laughing was certainly louder than Julians advance apology to the parents. There was an FAQ section covering things from Andrews hair to what happened with the APEC case ('we got off!' followed by rapturous applause) and the guys finally left us with a song. A song detailing that we were in fact the worst audience they had ever seen and that we could all 'get fucked', even using the word c*nts in there. Then it was time to be upstanding and patriotic for the second verse of the national anthem. The lyrics were printed on the big screen with 'dah dah', 'hmmm mmmm mmmmm girt' and 'blah' included. The stage was emptied and the house lights came on. There would be no encore.

Was it a great night? You bet. While a little on the short side it was a non-stop ride of social observation, political incorrectness and perfect comic timing. Everything I was expecting and more. I'm not sure if tickets are still available to the other shows but if they are - grab yourself one. If not then head in anyway, Comedy Festivals bring some of the worlds funniest people to our doorsteps every so often. Dont miss out.
