Local rock act Barrel of Monkeys are set to play what could be deemed the worst show ever this Saturday at Pete’s Bar and Tavern.

“We are putting on four really bad bands, including us, that we think yous [sic] the punter will absolutely hate, we are all just really horrendous” Barrel of Monkeys cross dressing bass player Planet Planet has said. “On top of that we are only giving away two free beers to the first forty punters. That’s eighty one beers, we really pride ourselves on being tight arses”.

The band is set to play alongside Sydney siders Soma and local boys Embryonic and A Nessesary Evil.

When asked what was so bad about the bands ” Really we (Barrel of Monkeys) are just a bunch of rock wannabe poofters [sic], Soma are just too bloody loud, Embryonic are a talentless crew of boy band tryhards and well I like to refer to A Nessary Evil as an Unnessary Evil, which I think speaks novels. ” Mr Planet said.

that would be a pretty mental show……

In that case i look forward to that show! make sure it’s advertised well!!!!!!!!

Barrel of Monkeys friggin rule! Listening to them you can tell that their music has nothing to do with current trends or geographic location (def. not a Canberra sound!) They make themselves an easy target by being different, but I wouldn’t respect anything less. GO THE UNDERDOGS!!!

They know we want to play with them but they’re scared we’ll outdo them with our trendy clothes and make-up 😉

Hey Marcus and AD, Dance with Amps and Barrel of Monkeys should do a gig together and fight it out for worst band ever! hehe that would be a kick arse show! wabow! best show ever!

I like Dance with amps… well the stuff I have downloaded I have liked… you would like barrel of monkeys I suspect……

Dance With Amps is the single worst performing band eva! Don’t steal our title. Mal can verify this.

****sighs*****
so bored of simpson references

Hey Paco… you steal my worm????

“please remove your grubby little fingers from my display cabinet…”

That probably counts for most of us…

because you have seen too many episodes of the simpsons…. and not seen barrel of monkeys nearly enough

Why can’t I read this post without hearing in the Simpson’s “Comic Book Man” voice?
