Better band

Hey its Fu here with just a quick message, for quite a while now our group has been going to the palace in Camberwell for parma and pints on Thursday nights. Now while the food and bevarages go down quite well and the company is always great, there is one thing about the palace that pisses me off just thinking about it. No its not the fact that the bar has the lingering stench of chunder, or the crazy old guy that is always there and likes to talk to us, its not even that we keep seeing a vile disgusting person from our high school years that we all hate with a passion. No its the fucken shitty ass band. They suck huge balls. For those who are not familiar with Tim and Dan they consist of 2 taxi ride members Tim who you may have seen in the film clips and Dan who left the band before they made it what some would call big.
Now don’t get me wrong they do have talent, yes they can play and they can also sing, but they cant play a whole fucking song to save their lives.
Every week they start playing a song and every time one verse and one chorus into it they start making up the words or just stop and say hey we do’t actually know this song but well learn it for next week, and do they HELL NO. My god i hate those guys so much they can’t even play california for Stu, all he wants is to hear is that one song.
And another thing How the hell can the palace keep on a band that talks more to themselves then they do sing, its fucking pathetic and im tired of it. Now i know that they are not there only to entertain us, they must cater for all those who choose to go to the palace but what kind of assbag has a preference of music that is just fractions of songs and stupid lame ass jokes. Not Me! well thats all i wanted to say oh wait FUCK YOU TIM AND DAN learn to play some full fucking songs or just play a damn cd you stupid fucks.
ok take it easy all hope you guys had great weekends and have an even better one this weekend (except you Tim and Dan i hate you ).

The lesser of two evils

I’m currently listening to Somebody Told Me by The Killers

If you don’t already know tomorrow (Satday) the whole of Australia will be going to Kindergartens , Primary Schools and Community Halls to lodge their vote for either John Howard or Mark Latham… there may also be some others you can vote for but they’re not going to win so why bother.
Well I don’t know who’s been paying attention to the election at all, but it all is revealed tomorrow night when we crown our next prime minister for the next 3 years.
Think about it… most of you will be 26. What do you expect to be doing? Remember that your decision now will effect you for the next 3 years so don’t fuck yourself over voting in the ‘now’.
Think hard about it and think who will do the best job over the next 3 years?
The next thing to think about is do you vote for ‘the good of the nation’ or for ‘the good of you’?
It is a very tough decision. And a decision worth thinking about. I hope you all have a very successful day tomorrow casting your votes.
On that note I cry out to the people of hornbag.net to at least ‘tag’ the voting booth with hornbag.net, shit the whole of Australia is voting so we may as well get a little bit of free advertising! Better still stand out the front with hornbag.net ‘how to vote’ cards! Photographic evidence will be rewarded.
Have a great weekend all, I’m off to meet Stu at the Palmerston for drinks.

Fun Sized Day Out

Alright peeps , the first list for the Big Day Out 05 is up and well… eh, it’s not that crash hot.
You can check it out at bigdayout.com and well you got -
– The Beastie Boys (hopefully not headlining)

– The Chemical Brothers (classic yet a little tired me thinks seeing that nothing new has come outta there for awhile)
– The Music (gotta love brit pop)
– The Streets (geezer geezer geezer!)
– The Donnas (right…)
– Freestylers (meh)
– Powderfinger (classic oz rock)
– Grinspoon (let’s see how fucked up phil gets!)
– John Butler Trio (bums, everyone of em)
– Concord Dawn (no idea who they are)
That’s the main list anyway and so far nothing to get too excited about. I think Stu will back me up on this but where the fuck is the PUNK!!!???
Still on my wish list is Greenday , Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies (i know i’m dreamin) , Phantom Planet (california anyone?) , Alkaline Trio , Third Eye Blind , Ash , Away From Now (would be awesome!) , 311 or Zebrahead . Choheed and Cambria , and Shanon Noll. I’m sure there’s heaps more but just can’t think of anymore at the moment. Please add who you wanna see, so it becomes a HUGE Day Out!
In line with Inverock 04 the next big event will be the trip to Adelaide for the Big Day Out 05. Was great last year and with a little better planning will be even better!
But lets not get ahead of ourselves we gotta get over Inverock first :)
Peace out

What The??

Hi All its Stu,

Just a Quick one people what do most of you do on a Tuesday night at 11:48PM???? I know im at home and I think most of you would be. Well you know what Mr. Hornbag otherwise known as Gav does at this time of night he is out washing his car. What a crazy man Mr. Hornbag is. Anyway don’t forget to come down to Parma and Pint on Thursday night.

Thats all goodnight.

A piece of cake

Yo it’s Fu here with another Christian service announcement.
You’d think that with companies wanting you to buy their products they would make ads that made sense. You know put the product out there and catches your attention. A lot of ads out there do catch my attention but for all the wrong reasons, today im gonna discuss the latest Special K ad i know that most of you have seen it and some have even commented on how stupid is is.
There is a woman working in a cake or pastries shop when she first opens up for the day you see the waiter from the next door cafe having a perv which is understandable she is pretty fit. Anyways the woman is watching her figure and wanting to keep healthy, fair enough so she eats Special K for breakfast, good choice because breakfast is the most important meal of the day and a healthy breakfast can only be good for you. Makes sense so far, so time passes and she receives her delivery of cakes from her supplier and so next thing her shop is full of cakes, awesome everything is going fantastic she has had her nutritious breakfast and is all energized up for the day and her delivery is there on time and in full, what happens next is fucking retarded.
It starts off harmlessly enough the waiter from the cafe next door comes in to collect a tray of goodies presumably to sell to customers, that or he’s a real greedy bastard, still cool but what happens next still fills me with a sense of who the fuck writes this shit, he then proceeds to offer the shop owner some of her own cakes, that is some fucking dumb shit right there, does he not think that if she wanted some of her own fucking cake she wouldn’t just help herself?! FUCK! You don’t go to Macdonald’s and offer the chick behind the counter some fries or a sip of your coke or am i just a selfish bastard. I’ve said it before, god damn there’s some stupid idiots out there.
If he wants a piece all he has to do is ask her out and try to get her drunk or something.
This has been another Christian service announcement, the good kind not the god kind.

A Message From Pete – Foreign Correspondent

From : Pete
To : hornbag.net

here is a post for your perstigous publication:

Hey you kids back there in Australia. I just want to say: If something scares you, I mean really scares you……you should do it. I mean really do it. I came to this realisation while driving the bus yesterday on my hangover recovery day. (you know what I mean) I got an email from an ‘old aquintance’ saying she was scared to go overseas and she didn’t know if she could do it and her ‘best friend’ was going with or without her and boo hooo hooo. FUCK IT and FUcking DO IT. Damn you whimps. Like all the fucking melbourne teams who didn’t make the final (I’m a bit behind the times)

yeah Pete out.

It’s all about quality

I have had a brain fart for the last few days hence the lack of action on hornbag.net , I promise this is only a brief setback just like Paulie Shore’s career (I’m sure they’re going to be making Son In Law 2 anytime now) and things will be back to normal.
