Are you doing something to help console your lack of blip though? BTW - watching us listening to a stream is probably not really an option tongue

How are you marking the occasion of blip?

Casa SoundBytes is hosting the first annual anti-blip brunch (or potentially a tea party - because we're cool like that and I like making macarons and do a mean dulce de leche brownie), on the Saturday to hopefully listen to our compatriots 10K and cTrix play. Assuming there's a stream. If not I suspect we'll be at a pub and drinking before lunch wink

This is what happens when Blip NY is on at 10 in the morning. smile

PS - This is despite the fact that most of Australia's chip community seems to be going to blip this year and supporting them in person. Damn you all! x

Surely it's not just in our house that "Not many, if any" is a regular response to questions?

Almost locked in a date for SB9. Needed to get a move on with it, but maybe we can have some kiwis at 10? You guys would be more than welcome (obviously) to come along and hang out though! Will let you guys know the date as soon as we have it confirmed

Yeah we have sharpies here too, but a sharpie can be called a sharpie or a texta or a marker. Texta isn't exclusive to the colouring in type

It is weird how many names for felt pens there are - most of them being brand names (that said "texta" also make crayons *shrug*)

I didn't notice that! Nice spotting - It's like they just gave up and crumpled to the ground. LOL

It looks like the time isn't updated for the end of daylight savings here in Oz (and maybe it starting and stopping in other places too) Not a huge issue (Its not hard to work out what the actual time of a post was) but just thought I'd put it out there smile

I love that all the other countries basically ignore this thread and its now turned into making fun of each others accents. Its a beautiful thing.

Yeah... we would probably have to Tag the event something like SoundBytes 9 "It's chupchoons eh bro?"

Hey - sorry didnt see the soundbytes 9 date requests earlier! Soon as we have them decided on we'll let you know.  Would love to get an NZ Chip presence at the events smile It'll be July - if anyone else is keen in attending 9 as well... maybe we can get that NZ showcase happening?

infradead and apt-get - so get over here for a show already smile  I kind of wish my phone hadn't gone flat so I could have live tweeted. Although from the merch desk I couldn't tell what the deal was with the "I would end you" and broken teeth at that point
gip - I still think its hilarious that 10K is now a "them"
pselodux - the Aussie contingent's pretty strong here and the more the better! smile

if only Tom could perform with a mouthguard.... although singing would be a little tricky. Hope you have health insurance for blip Thomas tongue

Great area. We used to live in East Brunswick and are a couple of suburbs away now in Pascoe Vale. Ninjaspew AKA Maddest Kings Alive is not far from there too.
