Australians unite!

Okay, well I'm not Australian, I'm a Canadian living in Australia..but anyway..

I went to Sonfest in 2001. Sonfest as a whole was good.

However, Deliriou5? are much better on CD than live.

I liked the OC Supertones, even if I dont like how they glorify the "Reformation" in "Return of the Revolution".

And my musical tastes in Christian punk and emo have long since progressed past Relient K. Relient K are too theologically soft, and too pop and not punk enough. Not a good combination.

I AM, however, going on SU Schoolies down on the GC

Yes, that's true about Relient K. THey are a bit poppy. I do like other bands though, Toby Mac isnt' bad, love Skillet, and the Lads are awesome too.

SU on teh Goldie? I'm going to SU camp in the Whitsundays for schoolies! Gonna be awesome, hanging out with my best bud on the boats and stuff. Sweet.

And Adelaide is no excuse.....comeon over for Sonfest! hehehehe, j/k. SHame you're missing out though!

Oh, btw, does anyone go to an Anglican church in their area?

Uhh...I go to an Anglican SCHOOL in my area.

I go to a Catholic church in my area..

Alysibeth · 09-17-2003, 09:40 PM

Really? Which school was it? It's just I was wondering if anyone was going to be going to the Anglican Gathering in January, cause it's on the Sunny Coast and it's going be be fun, then we're all going to Sonfest like mentioned.

And only 1 exam till holidays! yay!

hehehe

phats · 09-17-2003, 09:58 PM

Catholic church, Anglican school... I guess that works...?

Alysibeth · 09-17-2003, 10:04 PM

hehehe, course it works! We all believe it God and love him, obeying his Word. I hate it when some people get narky about denomination like mine. Most ppl in my class have been taught that we Anglican's are evil child-molesters that divorce each other all the time! We're not of course!

phats · 09-17-2003, 10:12 PM

Ok, I don't know where that impression came from either...?

Alysibeth · 09-17-2003, 10:15 PM

hehehe, just a few ppl in the Aust'n public, who needs a jury when you've got the media?

phats · 09-17-2003, 10:25 PM

Me.

By that I mean, ok, I didn't know ppl had a such a bad view of Anglicans. I've always got along with them over here.

Alysibeth · 09-17-2003, 10:31 PM

I think it's mainly due to the whole Dr Peter Hollingowrth thing not too long ago. Our just-resigned Governor-General. And also, we did a study in class about King Henry and how he broke away from teh Cathloic denomination and basically formed teh Church of England (anglican). My teacher rippe dmy church and gave our class teh wrong idea from the start. But I'm slowly getting them to see that we're not aliens or anything!
