Hey all!

Come join the GOODBYE SIDEBURNS FOREVER facebook group and be informed on details of the launch of the retrospective album to be released in October through The Grouse Sounds Recording Company. A big gig is being planned and it would be great to see you all there! Who knows Chris might turn up?

[WHITE FALCON]

awesome!
cheers for letting us know!

post this in off topic man
it has nothing to do with TLE ?
Well... It kinda does. Goodbye Sideburns Forever was a band Chris was in a long, long time ago for a while before The Runaway Boys / TLE. So it is relevant, and thankyou sideburns for the information! I don't have facebook, but i'm sure other people here do!

[WHITE FALCON]

im completely sorry :)

what the fuck
before runaway boys!

sorry :)

Here's when I found out everything I know about GSF, I knew the name of the band before but not much else other than Chris was in it for a while. Enjoy! sideburns, is there a GSF myspace or something, or just a facebook group?

Greetings all!

Before Chris made it big time, he was moonlighting in a band called 'Goodbye Sideburns Forever' (between '94-'97'). GSF were a Melbourne version of Blur crossed with Supergrass and we were doing the Britpop thing long before anyone in Australia had even heard of it!

I was the lead singer of that band and I can remember rehearsing at Chris's parents place at Wheelers Hill in the billiard/recreation room. Chris's Dad thought he was crazy when he decided to leave us due to too many of each other's gigs clashing (what happens when you play in two bands). We were nearly signed to Universal and EMI. Chris loved playing with us, and I can remember Scott saying that if Chris was'nt into the Living End he would be perfectly suited to being our guitarist!

We're reforming for some low key gigs around Melbourne late October.
It would be great to see some Living End fans there. Who knows, Chris may turn up. In fact, I'll SMS him now!!!

Cheers D!

[Kev]

with chris playing guitar?



Nah sadly not.

I don't think he recorded with them. just gigged

[The Dying Start]

I still find the band name offensive.

[Big J.G]

At least the bands name isn't a fail, such as Xiu Xiu.

I don't even know how to pronounce that, for some reason I have an album from them.

[The Dying Start]

"Shoe Shoe"

[Ben reed]

[thelivingvines]
