Humble Pine

About Me

It is a musical concern that organises gigs in Townsville, Cairns and Mackay We will keep you posted about hot fresh indie and core shows.

We will Sell out.

We will sell back in.

We will give any band a listen if they are keen to play in NQ.

We will try not to make fun of people.

We probably will though.

Hope you enjoy them things we do.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 8/20/2005
Band Members: Shmembers

Matt Allen - conductor of audible auxillaries
Sam Goudie - proprietor of relative interests.

"The Don" - Boss.

Influences: The sounds a spade makes when it cuts into dirt. Sweeping the floor. Gadgetry whirring in delightful incomprehensible synchronicity. The woosh of all natures glory being buffetted by wind in the park next to my house. the sound of a glass bottle sliding down a slippery dip. earthworms. ebbs and flows of big conversations in echoey halls. Cursive. Deathcab. Dashboard. Circa Survive. Minus the Bear. Appleseed cast. ...And you will know us by the trail of dead. These bands are well good. The sounds of two sets of lips disengaging from a kiss that was unnecessarily passionate. New things that have inspired me.

Multiculturalism on buses and old Chinese ladies being quiet not from oppression but from a comfort in their surroundings and the ability to feel safe and quiet by herself in a strange country. And Indian people slapping five!

The way underground smells and the way an open sky sounds.
Sounds Like: Whoever plays for us. check out our boys and girls We sound like Kate Martin, Prey, The Short List, Gulliver, We Are Buildings, Joseph Liddy and the Skeleton Horse, The Clients, Josh Broughton, Dogwater, MARF LOTH LOLLOPLY, Exiled on Armstrong, Courting Pandora(in the epic metal vs disco battle of 2008 at the mansfield hotel. Metal reigned supreme) Dawn(sissys),SBD,David Saxby,Treebrother,The middle East, Dragging Pianos. We've never had weed play at a show for us but he gets a holla.We sound like NQ
Record Label: Adhesive
