this news is depressing, my favorite band in the entire world, and I may never get to see them live

I understand why, and I'm still excited about the new album...

But nonetheless, this is unnerving, very, very, very much so

Fuck, I miss Pat.

I know
And with my luck as soon as I leave sydney this summer they will play a show there . Well that better not happen

I'm just happy they are still making music!! Remember how about a year and a half ago we didn't even know if they would still be together or record again? I just thought of that and now I'm very grateful things are going so well and that Craig is comfortable... and having his wishes respected.

They'll play gigs again.

Probably in Sydney after I'm GONE Well I'm here til next summer... don't you think they would play before that if they do?

You mean the US summer right Maddie? Or have you decided to stay an extra 6 months? I dunno, but I'd guess that if the guys release their next album in around June next year they might start doing one or two shows in Sydney sometime around March/April. But who knows with The Vines? Maddie, I don't think you'll have to worry about the guys doing any shows over December/Jan when you're back in the USA for the holidays now it looks like the album won't be out till mid year. I'd really love to see the guys live and I'm sure that they will play live again sometime - but if it doesn't work out, it doesn't work out. As long as Craig's happy and continuing to make music, I'm happy . I'm so excited about this next album!

oops... I meant the US summer . I always forget that . Yeah I will be here until July as far as I know... but if I know they are playing in Aug I will have to somehow stay until then . actually I have am not positive what will happen for me after that cause I'm crazy like that.

Yeah I really would LOVE to see them live but if it's best that they don't play that's totally fine... I would be glad they are not making Craig do something he doesn't want to. the only thing that irks me is the chance of just missing them ...yeah I need to stop worrying about that, there's no point in it!

I can't see Craig staying away from a live gig forever. All I know is if they do only play in Sydney, Allie and Maddie better record it, videotape and take a million photos!!!!

^ Done, done and done .

hell, if the only place they play is syndey i'm flying there. what home, job, and credit card limits?

If they only play in Sydney I'm sure I could talk my parental units into going there, being the spoiled brat I am.

^ You'd have to hope they play an all ages gig then... .

I really hope that is not the case. I can't afford to fly to Sydney. I wish I could.

I know. I hate the 18+ shows. Well, sometimes it's good but people over 18 can be just as moronic as people under 18. We've had this discussion before.

Haha...yeah let's not go there!

well, at least we'll have the music to listen to.

darn...

no money

not old enough

not in AUS

I'm screwed!

Yes, the first time was enough.

I hate the goddamn metro.. i bet they will play their show there... its always over 18! I think they should let us in even if there is a bar... you can get into the Yallah Roadhouse and there is a bar in there! They just give you under 18 stamps so you cant buy alcohol

Damn Metro!

In a lot of the places I've been to in Quebec they don't even care. Unless they know there'll be a lot of underage kids there, then they do but just about everytime I've gone to a show there there was lots of underage drinking going on.

Is that propositions for being exchange student's still standing..?

I really want to see them. I'd do anything.

Even if I have to work a lemonade stand my entire life.

I may have to sell stuff to see them. Oh please guys, please come to the US. ROAD TRIP!!!

Gosh if they come to the US, I'll buy a plane ticket to go wherever they are playing

or drive...depends on which is cheaper

I'd drive no matter what, because I get paraniod about planes.


But I also do about cars..

Well, cars would be better, I guess. Less likely chance of dying.. lol

I say we rent a bus like ROAD TRIP.

Yes! haha

And we could all run off the bus and maul them! hahaha

That would probably freak them out. haha But we can be all like "Yup. We are from the forum. That's how we roll.."

It could be quite an adventure. Maybe they'll end up on our bus.

*cue in porn music*

I would die of happiness. haha

I can't drive, though. I suck, anyways, and we would get arrested because I'm only 15, and I can't get my permitt till in 16.

But we could make Craig drive, and see how that works. He can take us to McDonalds.

I second that!

haha Carries in.

I seriously would do it.

Well, first I have to make sure none of you are 40 year old men. The would freak me out. Carrie knows my fear of 40 year old men on computers..

But I'm pretty sure all you guys are ok. haha

Craig can't drive.

So true even though they would never come here. but still i cant tell if it is good or bad yet.

Me neither.

Well, I knew he couldn't drive. But I said it because I thought it would be funny, since he said one time he had to drive everyone home, because they were drunk, or something, and almost killed them.

Thats why I said it.

But, I can't drive, but I got money for gas.


I got about 500 dollars saved up. That could go towards food and gas. We can sleep in tents. Or in the bus. Or on the bus.

re: craig's driving skillz...or lack thereof. from NME's 'the boy who fell to earth'...





oh, for video footage of that...

I can't drive either. Living in a big city, I never had the need.

We'll have to load up on McDonald's to entice our prey...and when I say prey I mean Craig...duh.

lmao. Yes, we will go, seduce him with some McDonalds and Coke, and some good music.

I'll drive! I may not be anywhere near getting a licence but I'm a pretty good driver.


I sure do.

And some other stuff.

This board needs a shifty eyes smilie!

Not even gonna say it.

I tried driving ONCE. Not on a road, or anything. It was in the parking lot of my school. It was a few months ago, and I almost ran into the brick building of the school.


Nope, I'm never attempting to drive again. Especially on a road. If I cant drive in a parking lot, how far do you think id get on the road?

haha.. Yes, or.. someone can dress up as Ryan, then go "Craig, I'm waiting!", run onto the bus, and then we got him. haha

And the Mcdonalds will make him want to stay.

Driving really fast on a road = most fun thing ever! EVER! So is driving my dad's truck on our land back in the country.

As if there were a need.


My driving attempts have included..

Crashing into a fence
Almost killing a dog
Hitting a parked car

Hey, I gave it a shot. It's just not me.

I almost murderd a mailbox and a stop sign the first time I drove.

Whew. Good thing you didn't really kill that dog..

I once got hit by a parked car.

What?

Hahaha! I love you Shayla.

I also tripped over a cordless phone, and I'm not even kidding about that, either.





haha.. I know, I'm great, huh..?

Kidding. <3

he can´t?
