just to reply to some of the criticism of silkeborg. i don't understand ur man a few comment's down, silkeborg were one of the only truly original bands on the nite there music is extremely clever and catchy, not just ur standard four piece rock band. there lyrics are well thought out and im pretty sure the scaffolding is a metaphore for something!
reef stained also did a cover which im pretty sure got them disqualified and loads of bands cover that song! im not disputing whether reef stained are good or not coz i think they are a class band and i had a great buzz during their set but i just think there fans ruined the nite abit with there single minded attitude to the music!
anyway was a class gig and i dont think it was fixed at all i was talking to loads of bands on the nite and loads of them said silkeborg shud win so looks like a fair result!
If you're a fan of Bigbrother Australia && you want all the latest BB gossip than you will love this band.
So please join everyone.
