The thread starts out about an article posted by Lizzy Borden about recent troubles supporting Yngwie. It dissolves into a couple of Australian bands getting the same thing a few years ago.

Just curious as to whether or not the same happened the times Division have supported Yngwie

I don't really want to give details in a public forum, but our experience with Yngwie was less than pleasant.

at this point, you can't support Yngwie with anything smaller than a forklift.

HAHAHAHAH!!!! I just had to laugh at that one.... I don't even know who Division is, I was linked here, but god! That is a good one! Champ!

 

[NickDivision]

thanks. We've had a few past shows with Yngwie, and I'll just say the reputation is well deserved. As for not knowing who we are, hey, take a listen to the tracks up on our site and let us know what ya think!

 

[weetbix]

I don't think many people at all in Australia know who you are.

My old "Paradise Lost" tshirt is a bit too worn out to spread the word now :/

 

[NickDivision]

most t-shirts that are that old are too "worn thin" but it's maybe the shirt, maybe the body. I guarantee it's not in as bad a shape as some of the spandex I've seen at Jaxx.

You could always get one of the new Division logo shirts. Just drop in for a show.

Australia is a long haul just to come see you guys.

You know, I have the shirts here. I am more than happy to send them anywhere in the world if someone wants one.

Oi!

I'm normally very nice to people I dunno in person (Thus I harass Nick to no end)... but...
Never having even heard of the guy I went "ok let's pop to the site and see"...
Clicked up the image gallery....
And no offense to any here, but...
heavyset males in.. leather pants... just...
well, it helped my diet....

Well, yeah - it's not my fault he moved away from Springfield. Although it's not really his, either - that's the heart of the joke.

so if i was to call you on that offer, what would it cost me?

<- someone from aussie land who would like a T-shirt to wear to metal gigs that might spark a topic for discussion :

[weetbix]

Yeah - I liked Springfield. Well, except for some of the afore-mentioned spandex

My fiancee likes country music - so at some stage we may end up in the US for a few weeks around Nashville. Be a damn shame if I dragged her up to Springfield

But yeah - for the hell of it, how much are the shirts? I've never met Flain before but I'm sure we could split the cost of the postage...

PM me an address and what size you want, I can get one out to you.
