Trashbags Kids - A wasted youth!

Where were you 2 years ago?

Long term friends, Tommy & Bobby, also known as The Bloody Beetroots, have hit the Rockstar status, which is Really really amazing, i applaud them, and i am quite amazed that we @ Trashbags picked them...... 2 years ago in october, - from all the hype now around them, people calling themselves true fan, i have only one thing to say, "Where were you 2 years ago" before they had wesc headphones or signed to Dimmak.

Could it be that Trashbags is ahead of its time? I remember a year and a half ago, We were onto the Proxy, having him early February he sold out his Australian tour, and has really hit Rockstar status also, We could say the Same with Danger & datA coming off his Skywriter album.

Here is a song, for those who remember Kill the Radio, or Trashbags @ Yu, and if you attended, you are the ones that could honestly call yourself "Ahead of your time generation"

don't jump the wagon, and be a sheep, be a real fan and follow the artist and music.

goose - everybody [the bloody beetroots chipmunk remix]

ahead of your time? or do you guys just know talent/goodmusic when you hear it?

i think knowing talent/good music when they hear it means that theyre bound to be ahead of their time haha

yeh i agree.
it's just annoying when people think they're the shit because they put on a night a while ago and now have done it again after the dj's have gained popularity over time.

we are not the shit, its never about that, its about good music, good artists coming in early - and besides this Metro show was not a Trashbags event, so it clearly states we do not jump the wagon. - and quite obvious we cannot be the wagon jumpers, if we toured them first. -

As it hits mainstream, they hit festivals and bigger show, not saying we wouldn't want them, its just they grow bigger than a club show.

So get annoyed all you like, we are merely just stating the obvious.

ok my mistake, forgot who's blog i was commenting.
just seemed like this post was a bit of a shot at everyone who wasn't at your guys night 2 years ago.

oh of course not. The "Trashbags" party are not for everyone, its more for those who enjoy music and internationals they will not hear elsewhere. More underground, less mainstream.

but for those people who "claim" to be fans, but cannot name 1 song other than Warp.

then again i'm quite harsh, i only call myself a fan if i know history of the artist/band when then, and only then i can call myself a "Fan" - there is a completely different thing from a fan and groupie.

Loving your angle absentees, keep the opinions coming, no point calling a blog a blog without 'constructive' criticism other than hate.

props to you guys bringing out beetroots, guns n bombs and les petits before they were mainstream but you did just run a 'cobrasnake' event. Thats hardly underground.

Didn't think Classixx was mainstream. If they were, i should have put them at the Metro and filled it with 2000 people.
