Nickelback & Other Musicians We Love To Hate

perri — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 02:56:18 +0000

It could be their music. It could be the messed up things they do. It could be the messed up things the say. Hell, it could even just be their face; these are the artists that get under your skin for for one reason or another. So loathsome that their very being brings people together. Please try not to punch your screen.

The Hottest MILFs In Music

Nicholas Jones — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 10:29:32 +0000

Yes yes, we know, we know. This is a tad trashy. But we’re amazed by the fact that even the stresses of motherhood couldn’t stop these women. We still worship at their feet, even if now we have to share them with a bunch of snotty nosed kids. Sit back and behold the women who make half of us jealous, and the other half, well, you know.

The Year The Festival Died

Nicholas Jones — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 02:10:13 +0000

It’s been fun riding the emotional rollercoaster over the last year as the festival market in Australia continues to go through huge changes. Once proud festivals are gone and only a few are left to pick up the pieces.

We take a look back at the last 12 months and have a look at the carnage left behind as festival after festival is postponed, cancelled, or simply vanishes.

We could go on for hours with theories on why the market has been so volatile but we believe the words of Yosemite Sam probably sum it up best when he said ‘This town aint big enough for the both of us’.

The Worst Sex Tapes & Photo Scandals In Music

Nicholas Jones — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 06:17:05 +0000

Celebrities and musicians aren’t always the sharpest tools in the shed. This is especially obvious when they throw caution to the wind, film or photograph themselves naked, and then cry when the footage or photos inevitably end up on the front page of tabloids.

So we’ve compiled this list as a sort of warning to other musicians who are thinking about flashing their junk anywhere within 100 metres of a lens. Don’t do it. And if you do, we’ll be sure to add you to this wall of shame.

Craziest Insurance Policies In Music

perri — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 05:21:00 +0000

People take out insurance for many different reasons: to protect their homes, their cars, their lives, even their funerals, but that’s just us normal folk, when it comes to musicians it’s a whole other ball park. Fingers go for a million dollars each, voices that are worth $6 millions, even semen can be worth more than most peoples houses, it’s all potential money in the bank for these guys. We countdown some of our craziest insurance policies ever to be taken out in music. Enjoy.

90′s Songs We’ve Tried To Forget

Darve — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 04:51:59 +0000

There was a lot to like about the 90s, and there was a lot we’d rather forget. You know those hangovers from when the major labels still made money? Thank god that crazy frog came along and ruined everything otherwise we still might be listening to this trash. Our lawyers want us to warn you before you continue that we take no responsibility if your ears explode while listening to these songs. So continue at your own risk. You have been warned.

Guilty Pleasures Of The 90′s

Darve — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 04:44:39 +0000

Ahhhhhhh, the 90s, when women didn’t wear bras, bald guys looked cool on mopeds, and people passed out on their front lawn after a long night of LSD and booze. We take a trip down memory lane to the guilty pleasures we all secretly love. Go on, turn your speakers up and blast these classics. We know you want to.
