— The Drones (@thedrones) April 16, 2009
Well, that is Gareth Liddiard's middle finger maybe blogger should be added too. I'm going to stop this blog now, I feel like I've been talking to myself for a very long time. Anyway thanks for reading but bye-bye.
OK, I really have to post this because someone sent me the link to the full gig filmed at the Metro in Sydney which is the last gig of the tour that finished last week so this is the last gig from The Drones for this year. I will not type very much because as you will see this is a very, very long video or it's a playlist but I'm going to just embed it in full just as you would be watching them live but off course it's not the same thing well, it's close enough. So thanks to Prettycrap for filming it all, cheers mate.
The setlist: The Best You Can Believe In I’m Here Now The Minotaur Jezebel Cold And Sober Luck In Odd Numbers River Of Tears Sitting On The Edge Of The Bed Cryin’ I Don’t Ever Want To Change Sixteen Straws Oh, Sister (Bob Dylan cover)
The photo above is really very silly but does look like Gaz is rooting the rest of the band, I've written a post called The Roots of Gareth Liddiard and The Drones so maybe I should have used this photo but it's very new. I found it on the latest mess+noise interview with him but god knows who took the photo.
OK, it's been a long wait for this DVD. It would have been at least early last year when I first heard about it and the filming for Melbourne's East Brunswick Club on February 20, 2010. Gaz has said it takes a long time in DVD land so I guess he's right but he's also done the reissue of Gutterville Splendour Six on vinyl and recorded/produced Ben Salter's debut solo album this year, plus of course his own solo album was released last year too. Mike Noga also put out his own solo album early this year too. Mike Noga and Dan Luscombe both joined Augie March's Glenn Richards for his debut solo album. Fiona Kitschin has been managing her boyfriend's solo career too, do you know who that is? If not just have guess, a clue his name is in the title of this post. So everyone has been busy, I guess but not the busy I would like. No really I have loved all the above projects but maybe I just missed The Drones.
This has been a long week too because I kept checking for the DVD since last Friday, 7th October which was the second release date which had changed from 16th September. I didn't get it until this Friday, 14th October. I always get this with anything on the Shock Records distribution, you could really place bets on how late they are. It's all great being independent and all but I wish it meant stuff arrived on the due date or why have one, fuck knows should be the release date but I do live on the arse end of this country, Perth.
So, now I have it I've watched it twice already even though I've worked a six day week at work, filling in for my boss who's gone on school holidays down south with his kids. The Fairfied Warehouse sessions are the quieter and in all color to the East Brunswick club session louder and in Black and White and is the first disc - both are from 2010. Then the second disc is 2005 to 2008 which is a lot of stuff recorded but never seen before or maybe just on youtube but you can now have it all in the one place which is so cool, I don't have to download it all the time now. I have read people saying four and a half hours is too long for any band but The Drones some songs are about ten minutes long and in the end it really is not too long. If anything, I wouldn't have minded another disc but maybe that is just me. I totally love this band, they're the greatest band in the world and this DVD has made them even more so.
In some interviews Liddiard has talked about a big box of live recording of mainly audio so I would love to hear them now too but this is mainly all the video recordings here. Of course a few years back they released their first DVD called Live In Madrid which is Spain plus extras, like videoclips of Shark Fin Blues and Jezebel so this one maybe should have had The Minotaur videoclip but that is really no great loss. That old DVD was really Rui Pereira time period on film and this new one is Dan Luscombe but The Tote footage on the second disc has Rui Pereira back on guitar. France and Germany is covered here, plus the last two shows are from Sydney shows but no England at all, which is a bit funny because their record label is English but who really cares about them anyway. What else can I tell you about it? Well, I spotted two Vincent van Gogh reproductions behind Mike Noga's shoulder. On his right is a very small Starry Night and Pink Peach Tree in Blossom on his left. Behind Fiona Kitschin is The Cricketers by Russell Drysdale. The tracklisting is here if you want to see what songs were played and on the DVD.
In the interviews over the last couple of weeks for this DVD and tour Liddiard has talked about how he's not really listening to any rock n roll anymore and how he's really gotten into all this African music which has got nothing to do with rock 'n' roll and the whole of English and American music at all. Plus it is somehow is going to influence new The Drones songs, he's going to write over this summer. He also says The Drones can do anything now on more than one occasion in these interviews. In one interview he said "he's broke-up The Drones and is now forming a new band which is going to be called The Drones" or something along those lines. The only thing I wished one of these journos would ask Liddiard was to put together a list of the best and/or his favorite albums from Africa.
The few below photos are from the first of three gigs at Melbourne's The Corner Hotel on Wednesday night. The first three photos are from tonedeaf and were taken by Andrew Briscoe and then the bottom five are from fasterlouder by katie_fairservice. So as a celebration that I finally got my hands on The Drones' A Thousand Mistakes DVD I'd like to throw them into this latest post. I can't complain now because I don't think I'll stop watching it now, I'm fuckin' lovein' it. I think I would rate it ten out of ten or hundred out of hundred or just million out of million, go and get it yourself.
OK, I went to see both gigs in W.A. at Mojo's in Freo and The Bakery in Northbridge last week because it's been so long since seeing them live and it was a treat. Adalita was a great opening act, she was joined by Raúl Sánchez so it was kind-of half a Magic Dirt reunion but playing songs from her solo album, plus the b-sides from the Hot Air EP, just different ones on both nights.
The setlist was the same on both nights to start with but maybe mixed up later but I love pretty much all The Drones songs so they could play any of their songs and I would love it. They played Stop Dreaming both nights which according to an interview with Gaz I read last week they never play or not for a longtime, or never since Mike Noga and Dan Luscombe have join the band - who asked where did that song come from?
Some highlights were: Starting the night off with The Best You Can Believe In and Locust and then later Sitting On The Edge Of The Bed Cryin’ but no Sharkfin Blues from Wait Long By The River and the Bodies of Your Enemies Will Float By album but then again I've seen that one heaps of times before. Luck In Odd Numbers, The Drifting Housewife and of course The Minotaur from Havilah album. Jezebel, I’m Here Now and of course I Don’t Ever Want To Change from Gala Mill. River Of Tears too so pretty much the whole night was full of highlights. Then at Mojo's they did a wicked version of The Miller’s Daughter and at The Bakery they did Sixteen Straws. But then Adalita came back on stage to sing with Gaz: Oh Sister, a Bob Dylan cover from his Desire album which was unbelievable, they really should record it together. As far as I know this is the only time The Drones have ever done a Bob Dylan cover, I know they name dropped Dylan a lot before but never a cover but then again I might be wrong. I still wish they would record that one, it was classic. It seems they did it in Melbourne the week before and in Adelaide the next night too. It was two awesome nights so if you have never seen The Drones yet before they finish their run of shows or just go buy the DVD.
Plus here is another very new videoclip just on youtube for the song Did She Scare All Of Your Friends Away from his great solo album Strange Tourist filmed by something called Sideshow Alley which was only uploaded a few days ago.
Right I better stop or I'll never finish this post, I've been writing all month, adding and adding to it. Maybe I should have broken it up but it's too late now. Stay tuned for the letter "E" very soon from my favorite 100 Aussie albums, I promise.
Right, I haven't done this in a while but here's some cool photos I found on Fasterlouder's website of his very last solo show, Gareth Liddiard at this festival over east. These photos are by someone calling themselves Dovers. Then I also found four new videos on YouTube by someone called Prettycrap. The songs, two from his solo album Strange Tourist with that title track and Blondin Makes An Omelette and two classic The Drones songs with Jezebel and Shark Fin Blues. Well, maybe it's not his very last solo show ever but it's the last one before The Drones tour next month, can I call it their comeback tour? Yes I think so, it's been so long. What is after that? I'm hoping for a new The Drones album being recorded after this tour and being released early next year, 2012 but I'm only guessing here. I really wouldn't mind if he did a second solo album too. So this festival is called Changing Lanes Festival in Sydney on the 17th September, it was just last week which looks kind-off cool but Gareth Liddiard is the best thing about it of-course.
Those flashing lights are a bit annoying but I would sit through anything to hear his songs again, again and again.
Here's a bonus track which is really interesting, on the same day it seems Gaz played or just had a really long jam with Damo Suzuki from the Japanese band called Can and the Sydney/Perth band The Holy Soul. The Holy Soul seem to have played with him before when I looked them up, I found at Repressed Record a $7 mp3 for a something called Dead Man Has No 2nd Chance which is a live recording from a few years ago and has Dan Luscombe playing keyboards on it on it too. The songs are A-side: A Stone Of Fortune and the B-side: Strangers In Blue, can you call mp3 downloads A and B sides? I don't think so but I just did, sorry about that anyway god knows what this song is called. It goes for over forty minutes I think it's pretty dam cool but I should warn you it's pretty weird too. By the way your really can't see a thing someone forgot to turn the lights on, maybe just to be even more freaky.
OK, I promise to get back my favorite 100 Aussie albums in my next post but I had to post these photos and videos because they are just too good not to.
Well, I went looking for The Drones' new DVD called A Thousand Mistakes yesterday because it says on their website it's out September sixteenth but it's not out until next month according to the shops. I did find out it's also going to come out on vinyl in November which is really cool - well, I think it is. It's on Bang Records who did the wicked Gutterville Splendour Six reissue a few months back and another great record from them is called Until.... by Kim Salmon & the guys from Mudhoney which is also only available on vinyl too. I think I'll start buying everything on records now. Bang Records looks like my new favorite label, it's got all these hard to find Aussie bands but the label is in Spain, why? But thank god because Aussie's are too stupid to issue their own stuff and leave it up to someone, somewhere else.
So this below video clip is NOT on that new DVD but it's just my favorite video on youtube which is fan made. It's for the song called Penumbra which is the second last song from the last studio album Havilah and has to be one of my most favorite The Drones tracks ever too. You could call it one of The Drones most depressing songs as well but I totally love it. It sounds like it's only Liddiard on his acoustic guitar and maybe Dan Luscombe making some weird noise but it's got no rhythm section so preempting his solo album which came a couple of years later.
It was written while or after Gareth Liddiard was reading Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin (above photo) autobiography but he's written a few books - he's written a total of five books, three of them are autobiography's and two of them are science fiction novels. So I have no idea which one Gaz was reading, or if it was all of them. The books are Return to Earth (1973), Men From Earth (1989) and Magnificent Desolation (2009) also co-authored with John Barnes the science fiction novels Encounter with Tiber (1996) and The Return (2000). Anyway, whatever, this video was made using footage from Apollo 11 landing and moon walking. It's very cleverly made and I don't know how many times I've watched it so I'm now going to post it here on my blog. Here's the lyrics and the video right at the bottom of the page, I hope you like it as much as I do.
Penumbra
Edwin backs into the void He's not in training now And the pilot standing 19 feet From Edwin on the surface Bleached bone white Was once a pilot who flew Sorties in a war
But that don't matter any more Edwin's three feet from the floor As the pilot without warning Takes a piss inside his pants Hoping his pressure suit don't boil And Edwin does the same Charles Darwin's royals The Eagle too, man's greatest feat Miraculously intact All acute angles, knees and elbows Squats in golden underpants
Much later in the day Edwin locks the cargo bay And turns to see the cyclops Neil Armstrong through the hatch He's drifting further out of Wednesday Eye clamped between the ice caps Then Edwin does the same They're like two orphans at the window of an aeroplane It's 200 below zero The sun's shrieking like an owl Their footprints crush the bones of fairies As their grasps are disemboweled
Have I said I really can't wait for that new DVD A Thousand Mistakes yet? But it look like another month to wait!
So just to break-up my 100 greatest Aussie albums posts, here is three new videos I've been watching a lot. The first from The Drones' new DVD A Thousand Mistakes with Fiona Kitschin's Work For Me
Well, Adalita is supporting The Drones on their 2011 tour. Here is a great new video, Perfection from her debut self titled solo album. Which I think is pretty much my album of the year, so far.
Ben Salter has also released his debut solo album out now too. It is co-produced by Gareth Liddiard so this is kind-off like join the dots. Anyway, his album is called The Cat and this song is called The Coward.
So there you go, my three favorite videos at this moment in time so I hope you enjoy them, it's really just for me so I can find these things easy by looking here, ha.
+ The Drones tour dates for October 2011:
Friday 7 October — ANU Bar, Canberra
Saturday 8 October — Cambridge Hotel, Newcastle
Friday 14 October — Corner Hotel, Melbourne
Friday 21 October — The Bakery, Perth
Saturday 22 October — The Governor Hindmarsh, Adelaide

All the tickets you can get at their new website.
Well, what more is there to say other than it's going to be called: A Thousand Mistakes. Plus a tour coming later in the year which hopefully, fingers-crossed, will end up in some kind-off recording studio to do a new album too.

Both the wicked photos are by Daniel Campbell with kind permission for his website called: Baker Street Photography. These two can be found in the galleries under The Drones DVD. Check it all out if you haven't yet.
OK, I been wanting to do some blog posts of my favourite cover versions but haven't yet. Over this weekend in Melbourne there was a footy game called Community Cup which is local bands/artists vs local radio and the Espy Rockdogs thrashing the RRR/3PBS Megahertz. Also happening at this footy game is some bands play some covers and this year it's songs by Nick Cave and Rowland S. Howard. Someone video taped them and I love them all unlike the two new Nick Cave songs with Unkle and Neko Case, both really do sound like they are not in the same room, maybe this is his new thing. So the new Bad Seeds album will be done by email so no one has to be in the same recording studio together. Anyway here are four of the best as recorded by Carbie Warbie plus go to ToneDeaf for lots more, you just wish you lived in Melbourne.

The Rebelles and Dan Sultan

By the way, Triple J this is what Dan Luscombe looks like. They have got his top ten Aussie albums on their website but they have a photo of The Drones line-up pre-Dan, the pic is from around 2004. It's most likely some I.T. idiot but Triple J should know this if you're going to select him out of 175 people voting in their hottest 100 Aussie albums industry poll. He's picked some great albums and Rowland S. Howard's Teenage Snuff Film coming in at his number one. If you check out their website in the first day or so they had Gareth Liddiard's top ten but changed it to Dan for some reason. Luckily I've written it down, I should post it up on my blog, eh?
Right, to start with Hooters are in China (I'm not making it up) with four locations around the country. The above photo is from The Drones myspace's photos with the quote under the pic as "The only person in China who would talk to us. Hooters, Shanghai." It's just a really, really funny photo to go with four of his most daunting and melancholic songs below. God knowns who took this photo but they toured China a few years back. Anyway this post is to be filed under my continuing The Drones and Gareth Liddiard database which is what I should have maybe called this blog.
Gareth Liddiard & Dan Luscombe with Jezebel @ Forum Theatre for the Stephen Walker Benefit on Monday 31 January, 2011.
Gareth Liddiard with I Don't Ever Want To Change @ St Kilda Festival Sunday 13 February, 2011.
Gareth Liddiard with Strange Tourist @ St Kilda Festival Sunday 13 February, 2011.
Gareth Liddiard with Shark Fin Blues @ St Kilda Festival Sunday 13 February, 2011.
Well, I have not posted anything for this month, I've started full-time job now so I've been a bit busy but I've got two other Gareth Liddiard related posts I'm currently writing. One is very short but the other is really long, too long, maybe. So hopefully I can publish them before the end of February but with only one day left I might not finish them off before or is it going to be for next month? I'll see what I can do in the next day but just more Gaz posts to come.
Hello and welcome to another post one and it's more about The Drones again. I just found some great photos of the last gig The Drones are and will play this year. I did NOT take these photographs these were taken by Matthew Harding and can be found on the Mess + Noise website. I just really love them, brilliant photos. Also if you didn't already know, I totally adore The Drones and will go as far as calling them the greatest band going currently and maybe of all-time too.
Gareth Liddiard releasing his debut solo album would have to be the highlight of the year, for me. The album of the year no doubt at all, it's still mind blowing even after a couple of months listening. I've also heard the news that Mike Noga, The Drones drummer but singer-songwriter in his own right has done his follow-up to his 2006’s Folk Songs album, March next year he will released his new solo album. The "new" Drones DVD will be releasing some time over this summer (no date as yet). I have also read Gaz is helping Ben Salter from The Gin Club doing his solo album which will be another thing to look forward to next year. I'm hoping for a "new" The Drones album maybe late next year or is that pushing it a bit but I have to guess it's got to come sooner or later at some stage, doesn't it?
It's been a quiet year really for them as a band with only nine gigs this year in total. So just to go over it here from the start of the year was Last drinks at the Tote finishing with Joel Silbersher doing the the last song of his old band's GOD classic track My Pal on 18th January. Then a run of three shows at East Brunswick Club Hotel with Gaz blowing up his amp in the very first song. All of these shows were filmed and recorded for the "new" DVD too. The gigs were on the 20th, 21st and 22nd of February then it was up to Sydney at The Annandale Hotel on 4th and 5th March. Off to England for ATP festival curated by Pavement on 14th to 16th of May. Then back to Melbourne at Forum Theatre on the 22nd October. Then to finish of with this show (that the photos are from) at The Corner Hotel on the 1st of December 2010. I wish I lived in Melbourne and could have seen these concerts but if you went could you tell me about them? I have no idea if this little run through of their gigs is interesting to anyone but me but I do like to keep track of these things and it's my blog plus if you enjoy all this too well that is bonus.
As for any new recordings from The Drones the closest we got this year is on the Maurice Frawley tribute album. I've bought the whole three CD's album but you can listen to the song they did which was the title track Long Gone Whistle; linked here). In the liner notes it only credits Gareth Liddiard and Dan Luscombe as The Drones members but has Augie March's Adam Donovan on Pedel Steel Guitar plus backing vocals and noises. Before that the one I'm missing from last year is the FBI radio's The Live Feed compilation album which I think I'll have to get now, a bit late but it's the only thing I'm missing (I think) so writing it down here reminds me to get it. There are some more great Aussie bands and artists on it too plus a few others from overseas. They're a few other discs from last year which Gaz and The Drones are on, my recommendation would be triple J’s Like A Version Vol. 5 with The Drones' cover of the TV show M*A*S*H theme songSuicide Is Painless. Also Gaz was on Magic Dirt's White Boy EP singing and playing guitar on Love Is The Armour. Plus Adalita and Liddiard did a cover and duet of early The Saints' classic song Messin’ With The Kid on Rockwiz TV show as well. Maybe I should put together a complete discography some time because I like doing stupid shit like that.
Anyway here are the photos below. Did I not tell you they're awesome photographs?
This was a benefit gig for local artist Dimitra Bucolo who suffers from lupus and has been hospitalised due to serious complications. Hopefully this gig will help and hope they get well soon.
All sixty photos for the night can be found here: Photos: Dimitron Benefit Feat. The Drones, Love Of Diagrams, ZOND : Mess+Noise but I've puttogether my favorites in this post because it's well, my blog and as someone said in the comment on their page "the M&N photo gallery format needs a total overhaul. it's completley un-viewer-friendly" which I totally agree with. There are some beautiful and wonderful photos but, you know what he said pretty much says it all.
All photos by Matthew Harding. Unfortunately I can not find his website to link back to other that the Mess + Noise site because I do like to show other peoples work here so if it is problematic for some reason please let me know. Did I already say how much I love these photos. I totally adore them and I would like to thank you personally for such great photos but the internet is at times unlike that. I hope it's all fine reposting the photos here on my blog.
On a final note: I deleted my last post because was unhappy with it, sorry if you liked it I'm going to re-do it sometime soon. Thank you for looking and even reading. I think I'll go back to the 50 Nick Cave songs next and just finish it and be done with it.
Right, I have to do something else other than this 50 Nick Cave songs list, it's going to drive me mad (if I'm not already). So, what can I write now? Well, who's far better than him? The Drones that's who. No doubt they would have be the band/artist of the the last decade, the 2000's. The four unbelievably brilliant albums, if not totally perfect albums in a row: Here Come The Lies, Wait By The River..., Gala Mill, Havilah. With each album quite different but still the same The Drones but building upon the previous record. Also just releasing all the kind-of out-takes album: The Miller's Daughter, in the middle of all that is brilliant as well. No other band has had such a perfect run and under the noses of most people too. We will have to see what's next for the band. Next week Gareth Liddiard lead songwriter and singer is to release his debut solo album Strange Tourist, in the true sense of the word, just all by himself.
You can not possibly find another band who ripped up the rule book, then set it on fire, pissed and shat on it, kicked it into a bloody mess then just flicked it into the corner. I can not possibly praise them too much. If you don't know it yet they have already changed the Australian music landscape forever. Everyone will ask you in the future did you see The Drones live? And if you can say "Yes" well, you and I are the lucky ones. You can hopefully forget about horrible bands like The Living End, Wolfmother, Jet now. Even now Nick Cave is getting too popular for my liking which maybe is why he's getting a bit of a bashing here in my blogs but I'm not the only one with what Mick Harvey said. Now Liddiard joins in on this too. In a paragraph in the Aussie Rolling Stones magazine Liddiard say America is on it's way out, Aussies don't have to do that anymore and names an old Cave song but really he could have said Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! Why does Cave name drop U.S.A. cities in the last lead Bad Seeds single and title track for that album, other than to sell some more records to them. It's false, it's just as bad as like Molly Meldrum on Countdown in the 70's and 80's. Looking for validation in America is a waste of time (unless maybe you are one them) but that old mentality of the U.S.A. is the best place in the world, which should be shot between the eyes with a double-barrel shot gun, who better to do that that Gareth Liddiard and his band The Drones? So it's beyond doubt or should have been long, long time ago for Australians to stop mythologizing America. Don't get me wrong now, The Drones don't really have to get as stupidity big as the above bands or artists because they're already just as or more important that any of them in so many other ways and done it all their own way too.
So anyway this blog is called video tape because I'm going to link a youtube playlist I put together at the end of this blog based on a video tape (did I need to say that?) I've still got a couple of boxs in the back room which I recorded a television show called rage but too much about the past. I'm trying to catch up with the twenty-first century, I've got a mobile phone lately, started a blog here and joined facebook the other day. The last time I watched rage until the very end and started watching at the beginning and enjoyed it was a long time ago by the looks of it. It was of course when The Drones were on. Anyway here's what video clips they picked and played.

The photo above is really very silly but does look like Gaz is rooting the rest of the band, I've written a post called The Roots of Gareth Liddiard and The Drones so maybe I should have used this photo but it's very new. I found it on the latest mess+noise interview with him but god knows who took the photo.
