Hey Alice you serious about coming up to Sydney to see Tegan and Sara?
very very much so! I might even fly to brisbane if I magically stumble upon large wads of cash... ooh if I sell my KH story as a feature to good weekend before then I should be able to afford it.. but I digress. Are you going to the Sydney one?
And Cecilia, why do you want to go to the LAST one?

And Cecilia, why do you want to go to the LAST one?
because it's always the BEST one. well.. depending on the crowd of course.
last year the last one was in Sydney. it was the MOST amazing gig.
even the girls said it was the BEST of the tour.
it was amazing. absolutely amazing!

for Tegan and Sara? they would NEVER have seating in front of standing.
they want to have their fans dancing and bopping along to the music.
they'd never agree to have seating at the front. NEVER!!
it's official, I'm going to see them in Melbourne and in Sydney.
they will most probably add a Sydney gig on the 14th.. I'd say it would be an in-store.
I'm REALLY excited.
did anyone see them the last couple of times they were here? or am I the only one? haha
Alicepire
Aug 7 2007, 08:46 PM
I'm guessing that they're going to do an instore at JB Hi Fi the day before the melb gig too.
I went to the Hi Fi Bar when they came in 2005 (and went shopping with Sara. Best.Shopping.Thing.Ever.) and then I saw them again last year at JB Hi Fi and the Corner

Did you see the L Word ep they were on? ooh and the con dvd? "that's a nice coat".. hehehe and the outtakes from the ptosis thing "*laughs*the people around me were intolerant of my differences *laughs* So I decided to wear this eyepatch" HAHAHAHA and the thing with Emy and Sara and prison and Tegan when she was recording Hop A Plane. hehehe "hey, why don't you just not be rude". and when Sara duct taped her hair...
Ooh and yes Johnny, let's meet up before the show. Assuming I find a money tree between now and then...
ooh!! ooh!! I just realised something!! I should get my payout from 1vs100 by then!!! I should be able to afford to go to to melbourne, sydney and brisbane!!! hot diggity!! and even if I haven't got my money by then.. there's always a way... bwahahahahahahahHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
I need a hobby.

just found this photo from toronto..
mmmmmm tegann
yeh The Con dvd is brilliant. it puts shit on It's Not Fun, Don't Do It.
although that one was great too, it wasn't long enough.
you went shopping with Sara? tell us the story...
I interviewed Tegan for Tripple J last year. it was hilarious.
and back when Tegan and Sara used their email address, Tegan and I used to email each other. then I got an email from Sara saying that she's upset that I never email her and always email Tegan. so to make up for it I sent her an artwork I had made of her. she loved it, but then Tegan wanted one HHAHAHA.. oh they're crazy.
ooh I know someone that was at the JB HiFi in-store last year.
a very good friend of mine by the name of Ella


Johny I didn't know you liked Tegan and Sara? that's awesome! you never told me!!
Alicepire
Aug 8 2007, 09:39 PM
ooh awesome! I didn't know you worked for JJJ?
and how did you get to know tegan?
that jb hi fi instore was strange. AWESOME but strange.. what made it strange is that I discovered that I was standing behind my ex (who I didn't meet til Jan this year) the entire time. the side of her head is in all of my videos.. which is kinda creepy.. i swear it was an accident.
the story of the shopping is just that after soundcheck Sara wanted to go and get a present for Emy. We ended up at retro star, where she got herself a red t shirt and then we went to the melbourne sports depo and some other shop cos we were wandering around swanston st.. turns out I'm not fabulous at suggesting places to shop...
Ooh and because I'm sad and avoiding work, I made sms and ringtones from the con dvd. bwhahaha now I just keep on hearing 'that's a nice coat' or '*laughter* the people around me were intolerent to my differences' or 'I am now going to take my eyepatch off'

Cec - I only started listening to them recently so my knowledge of Tegan and Sara is not great. I really like their sound, you have to tell me more about them on Friday.
*Newsflash*
Ticketek is holding a presale for the following venues on THURS 9 Aug at NOON
* Forum
* Enmore
* Tivoli
Enmore has both seating and dancefloor. What's the chances of seating in front of dancefloor aka Regina Specktor?
Alicepire
Aug 9 2007, 08:13 AM
no clue. I think I'll call the venue at 9 and ask.

Aug 13 2007, 11:17 AM
So who's going to Sydney? I'm sitting row d, seat 20. stupid missing presale... but 4th row isn't TOO bad. And I got my general ad ticket for Melbourne. I'm gonna wait to see if I get paid before I book my brissie ticket, I assume it won't sell out and that if it does, there will still be a way in somehow.
Johnny
Aug 13 2007, 11:36 PM
I'll be there Alice - Row B, seat 28. And don't worry, the forth row at the Enmore is very close to the stage. Are you coming up to Sydney by yourself?
Alicepire
Aug 14 2007, 03:08 AM
nah I'm coming with my girlfriend and her friend.
cecilia
Aug 18 2007, 05:02 PM
mmmmmm I can't wait to see Tegan again.
being in the same room as her last time nearly made me faint.
oh and Sara's pretty cool too..

jillibean
Nov 29 2007, 11:02 AM

Id rather the front personally
it might be scary up there with all the 13 year old crazy.. erm girls

sydney show as better than the melbourne show.
yeh thats right.
I went to both so I'm allowed to judge
Steve W
Dec 14 2007, 02:04 PM
I am afraid I have not heard any of their songs,Cec, where do you recommend I start.
Johnny
Dec 14 2007, 03:24 PM
Umbrella was awesome! Great show, this was my first Tegan & Sara experience. The thing that strikes me most about T & S is their onstage banter. Sure they are chatter boxes but all their stories are really funny. Love their story about their mum in the 80s - go the lycra and Springsteen t-shirts!
Was nice catching up with Cec & Alice afterwards. Cheers guys
Steve W
Dec 14 2007, 03:32 PM
Johnny what would you describe their music to be like?
Johnny
Dec 14 2007, 04:00 PM
Folk, punk, rock, pop, two female harmonies. Best to ask the others who has more knowledge about T & S than I do. Or alternatively you can read about them at All Music Guide: www.allmusic.com
Steve W
Dec 14 2007, 04:33 PM
Thanks Johnny will try there.
cecilia
Dec 14 2007, 04:47 PM
Indie, Rock, Acoustic, Pop
there's so many different labels you could give their music.
they're simply amazing.

Dec 14 2007, 05:05 PM

Oh My God... Melbourne show had a way better crowd and atmosphere.. but the girls seemed a bit awkward, like they didn't know what to say.
Sydney T&S were the best I can remember seeing them, mostly because of Tegan's back up vocals in like o like h... please tell me someone recorded that.. I used to be such a Sara fan but the way she just screamed those lines with her voice breaking... woah...
And Kaki King is awesome and her cover of that JT so was so incredibly hot. Unexpectedly so. I'm trying to find a recording of that too cos seriously.. wow..
