The Melbourne Dev meet up is finally up and running.

This is essentially a pre-show gathering in Melbourne for the Devin Towsend Project show. The meet up will commence from 4:30pm onwards at the Exford pub (199 Russell St) which is directly across the road from Billboards the Venue in Melbourne. Admission is free so come on down and share a drink or two with some of Devin Townsend’s fans and followers.

Quoted for epic justice.

Should be there, barring unforseen difficulties...

I will definitely be there! Thanks for organising this bro!

No worries guys. I love putting these things on.

Now I just need to see if Dev will pop in for a visit.

Count me in!

We need a Sydney meet up too, don't want to leave out all the NSW Dev fans...

Who's up for hanging out at the Enmore Bar afterwards and chatting with Dev?

That'll be awesome! I'm there.

I could organise a Sydney meet up but I'm not to familiar with the local surrounding over there. You can do it yourself though, just ring a pub close by or the Enmore and say you'll be rocking up with a bunch of metal fans, before or after, and they'll mostly let you in as alcohol sales will increase 10 fold.

I reckon Enmore Bar is best solely due to the reason that I'm underage!

And today we see yet more evidence of Footballers NOT being role models for anyone:

I hate it so much when they call sports heroes 'role models'. For sport, sure, but for life, fuck no.

Haha! They aren't role models at all. I see them as a bunch of semi illiterate, borderline rapists who's ambition in life is to kick a piece of synthetic leather around an oval and get paid ridiculous amounts of money, when that money could be used to cure cancer or aids, or feed a starving family. I hate football with a passion, more so the supports as they get aggressive and become so patriotic about there team they act like complete dicks in public.

Don't get me wrong. There are some decent players with an ambition in life and normal football fans, I just dont like it when the public eat up people like Ben Cousin's and this tool who recently got charge for possession of cocaine and get all emotional and distort over some dickhead who can't control his on body, or mind for that matter.

Melbourne meet up sounds good, I should be there.
