Nicest Bands I've Played With
Not in any real order but I've noticed that some bands are a hell of a lot nicer than others when you play with them. You have the ones who just can't wait to get out of there or who just want to steal drinks off you or the ones who complain that they should be higher on the bill but then you just get some really really awesome people in bands who become great friends. Here are the best bands in my experience... |
1 | La Dispute
Apart from being way awesome and letting us play with them in Sydney, the singer sat down with me for about an hour after the show just to talk about the state of "the scene" he was a really interesting guy with a lot to say. I wasn't too big a fan until he won me over |
2 | Truth From Facts
A great band from Melbourne, they believe in so much politically and are so strongly leftist. It freaks me out a little bit sometimes though to be honest. |
3 | To the North
To the North from Queensland are such magnificent young men, every time I play with them I am blown away by how talented and yet how down to earth they are... |
4 | Daniel Striped Tiger
Mega jet lagged after the trip out to Australia they played one of the best shows I have ever seen in a small anarchist library. The absurd nature of the situation was not lost on them and I can;t wait for them to come back. |
5 | La Quiete
Ok the language barrier was a bit much but my Italian was better than most so I think I became a conduit for them. Can't wait to see them again in a few months |
6 | Epitomes
The singer of Epitomes, Vance is so genuine it is hard not to love hanging around him. The fact they bring a troupe of friends from hours away every time they play in Sydney is so fantastic |
7 | Hira Hira
After talking to Hira Hira one night after a gig they offered me a place to live. You can;t get much friendlier than that... |
