It’s been survival of the fittest this month, with Glue Stores all over NSW and VIC being turned upside down by eager shoppers looking for a bargain on all their favourite brands. And that is exactly what we love to see! We have opened our doors to anyone and everyone that loves fashion, loves their brands, and loves a bargain…. And who on Earth doesn’t? So this is just a heads up that the fun is not yet over. We have marked prices down further, and added more items to the mix. With up to 70% OFF across brands such as HENLEYS, ELWOOD, ONE TEASPOON, LEE, WRANGLER, FRESHJIVE, NOBODY, MAVI, NIKE, ADIDAS, URGE FOOTWEAR, ONITSUKA TIGERS and more, you would think that we have totally lost the plot. But in a pure attempt to shock we have done the unthinkable… 40% OFF NUDE LUCY, TRUE RELIGION AND LULU & ROSE. And 25% 0FF YOUR FAVOURITE FULL-PRICE BRANDS STOREWIDE. Those being GSTAR, GAS, MENS LEVIS, DIESEL, ZANEROBE, ONETEASPOON and DEUS!! And no, this is not a closing down sale. We are just simply making room for all the amazing new stock soon to fill our shelves next season. Don’t wait any longer for stock to fly out the door. Get in quick and pack an extra set of muscle… cause our shoppers mean business!! Or to beat the rush, shop online and enter the word ‘SALE’ to get 25% off your favourite brands

It’s finally that time of the year again, where we can look forward to another Splendour in the Grass. And this time they will be celebrating their big 10- year birthday at Woodfordia in QLD, which is set to be the biggest and best yet! With over 80 acts to look forward to over 3 rocking days from Friday July 30th to Sunday August 1st, this is sure to be a birthday bash you will never forget!... (Or struggle to remember). In celebration of the big ‘one-oh’ Glue Store will like to get in on the fun. So keep an eye out over the next month to see how you can score 1 of the 4 Splendour in the Grass tickets that Glue will be giving away to lucky winners. Stay tuned to find out more.
Grab your dancing shoes, treadmill and sweat pants: Ok Go are here. Not here in my office, here in Australia touring their new album and walking the streets being weird and brilliant. Known for fathering “Here It Goes Again” the most downloaded music video of all time (48 million hits and counting) the Chicago quartet are valiantly fighting off the prospect of being remembered as a novelty, treadmill-enhanced act. Their new album Of Blue Colour Of The Sky sizzles with a quirky blend of funk, soul and sixties pop aesthetics. There’s more than a touch of Prince in those falsetto vocals and, done well like it is here, that’s a good thing. Not that the band are distancing themselves from their video past – there are clips planned for all 13 tracks on the new album. OK GO will play Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and appear at Playground Weekender later this month.

 If there is one bit of advice that can be applied to all music festivals this summer it’s this: plan early. Those things sell out faster than you can jog on the spot and say Run DMC. Of course you can plan too early too. If, for example, you’ve already booked your accommodation in Byron Bay for next year’s Splendor in the Grass you will be strategically disadvantaged because the festival’s three-day, 10th anniversary bonanza will be held two hours away in Queensland. Splendor has build up a reputation as a killer festival. It runs in winter, which makes sense if you’re intolerant of heatstroke and coming into contact with other people’s sweat, and it organizers always jag the cream bands. Splendor has out grown its original venue but will return to a new site in the Byron Shire for 2011. Meantime, next year’s show will be held at Woodford in Southern Queensland, home of the Woodford Folk Festival. The bands are announced in March – start planning (splendourinthegrass.com).

BDO tickets always sell out superfast. It’s our premier touring music festival with a history of rock and roll excess to rival Woodstock. Unlike Woodstock there’s precious little mud to worry about and your fellow revellers are a lot better dressed. I don’t even think it matters to some people who’s playing – just the chance to dress up and get tipsy in the blazing summer sun is reason enough to attend. In case you do care about the music, here’s a few highlights: Muse, Lilly Allen, Groove Armada, The Mars Volta, Eskimo Joe, Grinspoon, Ladyhawke, Kasbian, Peaches, Rise Against, and The Horror. While most dates have sold out they have added an extra show in Sydney and you can be in the running to score tickets right up to December. And by “score” I mean purchase. That’s how popular this thing is – you have to go in a ballot and pray to your god(s) just to be able to buy a ticket. See: bigdayout.com for all the relevant details.

If you didn’t catch the Pixies at the 2007 V Festival you probably heard about it from someone who did. I’m still finding new and exciting (for me) ways to slip my own attendance into conversation. “Great day for flying kites,” someone will say. “Kites!” I’ll respond. “If you’d seen Francis Black steer the Pixies through a pin-sharp perfect set of demented grunge punk pop at the inaugural V Festival you wouldn’t be wasting your life with kites.” Pixies Obsessive Disorder (POD) can afflict anyone with working ears but it tends to largely be a Gen X phenom. To bring you up to speed, the Pixies are the nirvana we were having before Nirvana, the forbearers of grunge and the inventors of the soft loud dynamic. They were far too Indy to have had any hits but even casual fans can recite the lyrics and their own interpretations of songs like Monkey Gone To Heaven, Debaser and Where is My Mind? The awesome news is that the Pixies will return to our shores in March next year for a special 20 year anniversary celebration of their seminal 1989 album Doolittle. Bring your kite (if you must) I’ll see you there. See: fasterlouder.com.au for tour dates.

 Things have been pretty quite in Camp Phish lately. In fact the band disbanded for four years which is about as quite as rock bands get without the need to hire a funeral director. Word is singer/songwriter Trey Anastasio spent a good portion of the band’s hiatus battling drug addiction and the fall out form a drug-related arrest. A rock singer with a drug problem!? I was shocked too. While there is certainly a world-weary quality to some tracks on “Joy” the overall vibe is redemptive and upbeat. In fact this is a remarkable comeback album, its strengths all the more pronounced because Phish aren’t renowned for their studio work. “Backwards Down the Number Line” kicks things off swimmingly with a country groove lit up by a diamond bright guitar solo. “Sugar Shack” and “Kill Devil Falls” are also among the album’s highlights, the latter guaranteed to get your arse swinging all over the joint. If you haven’t heard of Phish this is your chance to catch up. With a bad catalogue stretching over 20 years there’s plenty of phishy joy to go round.
