| you have no idea what 'rock' is. i saw them at Come Together and every other band on the bill was better than them. even the 15 year old hardcore bands playing at 11am. if you like your 'rock' with a heavy dose of irony and an utter lack of balls, though, you'll love them |

fuck off. you like emo bands so your opinion doesn't mean anything. |

| i'm sure Children Collide would be a crappy emo band if it meant getting played 5 times a day on community radio and getting anorexic groupies with scary bleached blonde hair. they figure its cooler to be a crappy 'indie' band..... |

| that is so much bullshit. how about if you're going to talk about a band you talk about their music rather than who you imagine their fans to be. |

| did you read my Come Together review? i heard their music. they were the worst band on the day. 15 year old Central Coast emocore bands had more talent and passion then them. but hey... guess it ain't 'cool' to care about actually putting on a decent show or knowing how to play guitar |

| yeah, I read your review, and even though I wasn't there, I can easily say that your opinion of them being the worst band in the whole Sudnay is absolute bullshit. I've seen these guys a number of times and they've been consistently amazing. |

hey, even a great band has an off night. MAYBE that was one of their off nights. or maybe you can't play passionate rock and roll while posing like models
Mercy Arms seem to pull it off though |

| MCR are trying to say something. They've got some actual emotion - which i understand is pretty uncool now. |

| no, MCR have budgets for styling and marketing. Children Collide are a band who came out of the suburbs, write good rock music and put on a good show. this conversation is absurd. but only because your absurd opinion makes up part of it. |

| do you know good rock music? MCR have songs that mean something and the ability to play them. they're not afraid to look absurd and sing their hearts out. Children Collide stood in front of a full Big Top and noodled on one chord for the entire show. it was 'experimental' or 'indie' - it was just crap |

| children collide are very worthy. maybe you did catch them on a bad night, good to see that you havent let that slant your opinion of them overall. i have 3 of their ep's, seen them a couple of times and am looking forward to hearing their full length studio album. perhaps you need not waste time presenting your idle thoughts on a band you obviously would prefer not to listen to? |

| I was asked to review the show. I reviewed the show. I care about ROCK AND ROLL and will make it my mission to attack bands I see as subpar, unexciting, or just plain lame. yes, a festival is a bad setting to judge some bands - but the Getaway Plan and the Living End still made something of it. Children Collide seem like another one of Sydney's 'rock' bands that don't really care about music -they just care about posing and being 'cheeky'. i expect to see them touring with Lost Valentinos and Van She soon.... |

| i'm not a troll. i just prefer music with a bit of passion and energy to some bored kids wanking their guitars into their skinny, skinny jeans. 'oh, this guy wants music to be ABOUT something? he must be a troll!' |
