Ponting is the key

Posted by: Stu In: Uncategorized

Ricky Ponting

In 2 days time Australia will begin their quest to win again in India after their 2004 breakthrough and continue their dominance of World Cricket. People are however starting to say that Australia are as weak as they have ever been. A total lack of quality spin bowing and an overall bowling attack that is very young could prove to be their downfall.

Dexter - Season 3 Preview

Posted by: Gavin In: TV| Uncategorized

There are a few shows returning in September and Dexter Season 3 is one of them. The teaser trailer above looks like we’re in for another killer (see what I did there) season and if the progression from season 1 to season 2 is anything to go by we’ll be expecting good things for season 3.

Channel Nine has decided that Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares and Hells Kitchen is not enough Ramsay to satisfy the average Aussie viewer so it’s decided to add The F Word to it’s weekly lineup.

I’m not going to rant and rave but I’ll open it up to you guys:

Has Channel Nine Murdered Ramsay?

Telstra Announce iPhone 3G

Posted by: Gavin In: Uncategorized

Telstra have just announced that they will be selling the iPhone 3G from July 11 which is a massive surprise to most of the Apple / Telecommunications community as up until now there was no official announcement and to be honest not too much rumor too.

Not only have Telstra hit us with a right hook they have followed with a stunning left jab by releasing pricing too at the same time! Whammy!

The Alchemy Index I: Fire and II: Water

Posted by: Crazyman In: Uncategorized

If you’ve read my previous post then you should know that Thrice have recently announced an Australian tour to promote the release of the final volumes in their Alchemy Index project. I therefore though it would be a good time to write up a full review of this ambitious four volume epic, which I’ll be breaking up into two parts. Without further ado here’s my coverage of Volume I (Fire) & Volume II (water).

Technical Issues

Posted by: Gavin In: Uncategorized

We appear to be having some technical issues with people viewing HundredPennies in FireFox so I have rolled back to a default theme for the time being.

New Stuff

Posted by: Crazyman In: Music| Uncategorized

Since this sites been pretty dead lately (I can see the tumbleweeds blowing through the place), I thought I would post an update on some new music that’s coming our way

One music release that has got me really excited is Zebrahead’s new album titled Phoenix which will be out August 5th. We can only hope that these guys will finally get off their lazy arses & tour Australia for the first time.

Harbhajan Singh and Slapgate

Posted by: Stu In: Uncategorized

As Australians we all know that our cricket team are not the friendliest people to compete against. They will use sledging as a tool to get ahead whenever they can.  Some claim this is one of the main reasons we have been the best in the world for such a long time. After the infamous Sydney test match a lot was said about how the Australians conduct themselves on the field and how they should just take some of their own medicine. I was reading all this at the start of the year and was thinking that this is just wrong. If an Australian player was found guilty of racially abusing an Indian player he would have been suspended and made to apologise. When the Aussie team accused an Indian player of doing this what happened?

Strung out for a name

Posted by: Crazyman In: Uncategorized

NUFAN & Strung Out

The good guys at Bombshell have hooked up a sweet looking double header tour for No Use For A Name & Strung Out.

The fat wreck chord boys will be heading off on an extensive Strangers In The Outback Tour on the 2nd of July and will see them hitting a number of rare locations (Cairns, Jindabyne & Geelong to name a few) until they finish up on the 30th.

No Use For A Name recently released their 11th album The Feel Good Record Of The Year and showed that they’re still capable of belting out some great punk rock tunes 17 years on. I think NUFAN was the first punk band I ever saw.
