I always wondered who buys their music
no interest whatsoever and then i see Kano's name! Has he been recording with them? man, if he dont do a solo show while he's here i will be pissed!

Demon Days is one of the best albums of all time in my book, other two not so much. But hey, you can't have it all.

Good album, definitely. And I will definitely take no.1 son to the gig, if they play somewhere I can take him. Actually, now that I think of it, the other two will also want to go, which could make things very expensive. Maybe I should be hoping they don't play all ages venues.

love love love that album
OMG this has to be the best news EVER!!!!
doubt it will be at Meredith, Gorillaz would cost too much and what they need for the stage show i don't think Meredith could handle.
i'm really hoping its at Rod Laver or somewhere similar. no festivals pretty please, cos the sound would be shit and hard to see em etc

Nope.
Was a pretty mad show in Melbourne, I really dug it, despite apparently looking sullen ( :poke: at liz). De La Soul fucking smashed it. They should have never left the stage.

haha it was just funny cos Sammy, Emma and i were going mental, and you were just standing there and watching intently. But as you said you were taking it all in
You could do either, go mental rocking out to all the tunes or just stand there and take it all in, so much to see going on all the time, was awesome

Full on! They work a crowd like nobody's business. Absolutely tore it out. My fave parts of the Gorillaz show was with them on stage.
