I wasn’t serious!
Oh well, my reputation is shot and after only posting for a couple of days!

“Man, I was really looking forward to tonight, now what am I going to do???”

Fear not, a solution exists. Just follow these easy steps and you’ll think the JBT is really there.

1. Get three dolls or bears from The Teddy Bear Shop.
2. Dress one up in dreadlocks.
3. Get torch
4. Put on JBT CD, stand bears infront of red or black sheet hung from window
5. Wave torch around to immitate spot light.
Oh hell, there is no substitute. Hopefully they’ll be back soon.

Good on you Joe, had to take it to the gutter didn’t you!?!?

Thanks Lumnock, yeah I was thinking we might do trivia at the Pot Belly, but if it’s not on we’ll go the Labor Club.

there is a trivia competition at the Labor Club above belconnen interchange. Free entry! plus they have either steak, schnitzel, calamari or pasta and salad bar for $7.90. There’s this one smug team called Team Discovery who turn up every week and win the trivia though. scumbags…

You could come over to my place 😉

Seriously check out Loadedog or Cardboard Charlie’s websites for local gigs

Def Leppard’s drummer only has one arm, and he still turns up.

So does anyone know what else my friends and I can do in Canberra tonight? Any other gigs happening? we were al geared up and ready to party 🙁

Maybe they can bathe and get their hair cut with the night off.
