The Eyebrows Band- Eyebrowtastic.

The Eyebrows Band. The band that took over the world in one fell, finely manicured swoop. Kath, Haz and Phill took our breath away over a year ago when their debut release, The Eyebrows Band, became the number one top seller in Rave, Time-Off and Scene magazine for three weeks running, tickets to their ear-shattering gigs were in higher demand than Heidi Klum on the runway in the 90s, and beauty parlors world-wide were forced to stay open late to combat the throes of people wanting similarly arched brows. After a long hiatus, the band are back, but with a whole new outlook on things, and with the kind of wisdom that comes only with time. We spoke to one third of the brows, Kath, to find out all of the goss, past and present, about the band that everybody wants to be.


PGL- What inspired you to form The Eyebrows?
Kath- A gentleman with particularly humorous eyebrows entered the record store where we were all currently working. One by one each of us caught a glimpse of his spectacular brows, and, inspired by the lasting hold that they had over us, we decided at that moment we had to form a band in dedication to such magnificent artistry.


PGL- Can you describe these brows?
Kath- If you can imagine the Mcdonalds golden arch cleaved in two, pencil thin, and jet black..... you still can't imagine how funny they were.


PGL- How would you describe your style?
Kath- Slow, yet fast. Heavy, yet soft. Rough, yet gentle like a summer breeze.


PGL- Who else would you say has remarkable brows?
Kath- Pete Burns, Boy George, Pamela Anderson.... and of course, ourselves.


PGL- Where will you be playing on your new tour?
Kath- I'm afraid I can't tell you. There will be no tickets. We will be spreading the word about our top secret gigs through undercover Eyebrows henchmen. After the last time....the sellout crowds, the riots, the smell of singed eyebrow hair..... we need to keep it low-key for our own safety.


PGL- Are the rumors about a new record true?
Kath- At the moment we're focusing on really being at one with our brows. After the last release (Live in Tokyo- limited 10") we all let the fame go to our heads. Between the cocaine, the booze, the girls.....it's safe to say we forgot to pluck our brows for too long. We can't afford for that to happen again. For now we're going to keep it low-key, play a few secret, small shows here and there, and really just feel the music, feel the hair, feel the love.


PGL- Thanks for your  honesty, and thanks for taking the time to talk with us.
Kath- Thank you. *raises an eyebrow.*

MMMMMMMMyeah.

The Babe Pages. Heellllllyeah hunnies! It's back, with a bite....

Sexy.

I love to love you baby. Too much too soon? Get over it. I bloody love you man.

Love is a concept that cannot be demeaned or diminished by rationalisation or scientific explanation. A life lived with love is a life lived wholly and unabashedly. Holding love in your heart, for yourself, for others, and for the world is both as traditional and as radical a concept as can be thought of. We here at PGL are big lovers of love. You could even say that love is our one true love. We love love. Sometimes it can be encapsulated in a simple sentiment or action, a glance, a touch, or a clichéd one-liner in a film. We don't give a flying where you find love, or what inspires you to share love with others; just that you feel it. Listening to a love song, watching a film, lying next to your dreamlove at night, feeling the muggy warmth of spring, looking at a photo of someone you've never even met. We feel that open, true, heart-wrenching love is a notion that can be taboo, and we don't like it. If you want to tell your boyf, GF, friend, or your pet sausage dog that you love them and they make you happy, and that you wish them total unreserved joy, just do it. Who cares that it's not cool, who cares that they might be taken aback or even a little frightened. If you were to die tomorrow and hadn't shared the depth of emotion that you hold inside, it would be a crying shame. So tell people! Feel it. Feel the love for yourself and for your life. Here are a few things that have made us feel the lovin'.

Martyr Privates- Magically Babelicious.

PGL caught up with the Martyr Privates (Sam, Cam, and Ash) at the Paddo Tavern. Over a round of grape and melon fruit tingle cocktails, and to the tune of classic 90s rock, we probed deep and hard to find out the REAL story about this private bunch.....

PGL- If you were forced to wear the same slogan on your t-shirt every single day for the rest of your life, would you choose....
A. I Heart NY
B. I Heart Hiroshima

C. The Man (up arrow) The Legend (down arrow)
D. I'm With Stupid
E. Don't hate me cos' I'm sexy.... hate me cos' your boyfriend thinks I'm sexy.

Cam- Probably the last one.
Sam- I like I'm With Stupid.
Ash- Um...

Sam- I think Wilson.

PGL- If you could root one Spice Girl, who would it be, and why....
A. Sporty Spice
B. Posh Spice
C. Baby Spice

Ash- I'd do Posh, cos' I was Posh in grade four.... oh wait! That makes it sound like I'm doing myself! Not her, then.
Sam- What ever happened to Ginger Spice?
PGL- She wrote an auto-biography, straightened her hair and lost heaps of weight.
Sam- Yeah, her.
Ash- I'd do Sporty Spice.
PGL- Really? I'd totally do Scary, cos it'd be the wildest ride.
Sam- Didn't she turn out to be a lesbian?
PGL- No, she's got kids and a husband. And a reality TV show.
Cam- It's Eddie Murphies child.....

PGL- If you were a contestant on Dancing With The Stars, what style would you perform and why.....
A. The Robot Dance
B. Break Dancing
C. Tango
D. Classical

Ash- I would do ballroom because that's probably the closest thing I can do.
Sam- Tango.
PGL- Why?
Sam- It's a sensual dance.
Cam- What's the tango again?
Sam- Its the one where you get to wear a rose in your mouth.
Cam- Okay, I'd do that then.

PGL- That's it for the multiple choice, so we're into the hard stuff now. What's the funniest movie you've ever watched?

Cam- Um....
Ash.....Oh, um.....
Sam- I'm still thinking.....
Ash- That's gonna take awhile
Cam- Oh! The Room.

PGL- What's the yuckiest food you've ever eaten?

Ash- Cam, didn't you eat some kind of f*cked up egg in Vietnam?
Cam- I didn't actually eat it, but I watched someone eat a ducks foetus. It looked like a grey and yellow tennis ball.
Ash- This one time in grade five I went to a friends house for a sleepover, and her mum made this really f*cked up pumpkin soup. I HATED pumpkin soup, and it was really bad.
PGL- Was it chunky, like un-blended?
Ash- It was chunky, and the chunks were undercooked.
Cam- Like pumpkin junket.
Ash- It was like a pumpkin slushie but slightly warm.
Sam- I once watched a guy drink my own vomit from a cup. He did it accidentally, but I knew what was in the cup.
PGL- Did he vomit afterwards?
Sam- He vomited. We were all vomiting.

PGL- That's messed up. Al-right. describe the wildest night out you've ever had?

Sam- Probably the night we ended up at Tony's and my friend bought me a $5 lap dance.
PGL- What was the strippers name?
Sam- Barbie I think.
Cam- That fruit tingle cocktail is pretty wild.

PGL- Have you ever been really really pissed on stage?

Ash- Yep. I was pissed in Good God, like EVERY night.
Cam- Not in this band. We don't know the songs well enough.

PGL- Have you ever been really really high on stage?

Cam- Yeah.
Ash- I don't think so.
Cam- I Heart played a show in Byron where we got so high that every note seemed funny.

PGL- Have you ever been propositioned by a Martyr Privates groupie? Or, have you ever propositioned anybody into becoming a Martyr Privates groupie?

Cam- Every day.
Sam- I got a very flirtatious vibe from a middle aged Martyr Privates fan once.
Ash- After one of our first shows, I had someone playing with my hair afterwards, and once some other guy said that I was a female version of him.

PGL- Do you thinks its the 'babes with guitars' syndrome?

Ash- Yeah, its totally that! this guy was like, "I love the way you play your bass, slow and dirty.....just like me."

PGL- The PGL staff have been watching Bones recently, and we feel that the sexual tension between Boothe and Bones is incredibly effective. What do you guys think?

Ash- I agree.
Cam- You could cut the tension with a butter knife.

PGL- If I pay you guys twenty dollars each will you play your next show buck naked with PGL painted across your bare naked torsos?

Cam- If we get socks.
PGL- Like free socks, for your feet?
Cam- No, for our....
PGL- Oh!
Cam- Leave it with us.

The gorgeous Martyr Privates are set to take this small town by storm. They will be starting their path of destruction at Metro Arts September 24th, with Neon Mountain, Naked on the Vague, Secret Birds, and Horse Macgyver.

Ghosts From Horny Past- They're horny, so horny, horny, horny....

For those of you poor suckas who are unfamiliar with Ghosts From Horny Past, they are at once noisy, cool, spooky, and dammmnnnnn sexy! Hailing from somewhere in Briz, they are ensconced in a veil of mystery. Who are they? Where exactly do they come from? And most importantly, how did they get to be so cool? Like the eternal question of whether or not Michael Jackson actually was an emotionally unstable child molester, who the Ghosts really are is a question well worth answering. Ghosts front woman Ignis Fatuus was kind enough to give us a quick phone interview to fill in some of the gaps.....


PGL- First of all, thanks so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule for this interview....
GFHP- No problem sexy! We always have time for Positive Guest List, it's totally the coolest blog around!
PGL- Thanks! So for those of our readers who are unfamiliar with you, tell us a bit about the origins of the band.
GFHP-  Well, basically, our particular style arose because there was an un-tapped hole in the music scene, particularly in Brisbane - there was a lot of great music, be it noise, avant, pop, hip-hop.... but there just wasn't enough horny music. So we got together- myself and Apparitus (keys) Incorporealeus (synth) and Paramnesia (piano) and just started loosely jamming. People related to the idea, and what followed was history! I guess you would describe our sound as being noise with no real direction or purpose, but all tied together with a steady drumbeat. If I could sum it up in a word though, that word would be horny.
PGL- Who is your main inspirational figure?
GFHP- Definitely Hugh Hefner. Or maybe Jordan.
PGL- For newcomers to your gigs, what should they expect?
GFHP- We encourage fans every show to remove their clothing and dance, the premise being that they are, in effect, too sexy for their shirts. We ourselves have sworn a solemn oath to be as sexy and half-naked as possible.
PGL- Do you believe in ghosts yourselves?
GFHP- If you believe in the idea of heaven or any kind of afterlife then it goes hand in hand with that notion that to ascend to a higher plane you have to be willing to let go of any earthly woes or torment. And as perpetual horniness is the most common bane of human existence, it goes without saying that any person who has shed their mortal coil cannot leave this plane until they have accepted that will never again get lucky.

Ghosts From Horny Past's self titled début 7" is out now through secret distribution....If you want to get your hands on a copy, hit us up at the Positive Guest List Facebook and we will let the band know!

When hapiness goes too far?

So there we were, waiting for the bus home from work, still hung over from wild times the night before. The bus rocked up to the stop, the doors whooshed open, and out boomed the voice of the Happy Bus Driver. "WELCOMEABOARDTHEHAPPYBUSLADIESANDGENTLEMENPLEASEHAVEASEATNORUSHTAKEYOURTIMEHOW'SYOURDAYBEENYOUALLHAVESUCHBEAUTIFULSOULS!!!!!!!!!!!" he boomed. For those of you unfamiliar with this man, he is ALWAYS happy. So happy that he is somewhat terrifying. It is as though he has sucked up all of the negative energy that 99% of the other bus drivers have and replaced it with pure joy. Pure, unbridled joy. He seems on the edge of lunacy, so ecstatic he must surely go home at the end of his shift and cry like a baby, unable to contain any of the secret sadness he has within. Even in spite of worrying all journey long that he would snap at any moment and kill us all, at the end of the ride we decided that he is still 100% better than the other 99%.

The glass is half full (with a yummo espresso martini.)

Happiness is...

watching Super Marios Bros with your bro

drinking beer on the verandah in your pjs

listening on repeat to the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack every single morning

meeting someone else who loves Prince as much as you do

knowing your best friend will always be your best friend no matter where she lives

spending an entire day eating cheese and playing Tetris

being the only girl in a white dress at a Cannibal Corpse concert

watching Crush every three months, and crying like a baby each time

getting a sick mix tape

We may be drunk from a few too many Pina Coladas, strawberry daiquiries, and fruit tingle cocktails, but this shit is hot.

IMMORTAL positivityyyyyy.

Hello pumpkin pies! We have been undergoing a debate at PGL recently as to what constitutes positiveness, and, by extension, what we can put on our lil' blog without betraying our message of peace and luurrve. We would never endorse censorship, however, recently we posted a story involving obnoxious pricks and how to deal with them while still coming out on top. Immediately after posting this story we deleted it, worried that since it was in large part a rant against negative people and how they negatively affect us; that it was by definition a negative story. But in the few days that have passed since this moral dilemma arose, we had a loverly piece of advice given to us - positiveness can arise from negativity. Beautiful, no? To delve into this theorem in greater detail, if we were to tell a story that was itself about something negative, the result could be that the reader might relate to it, and feel better for not being alone. Oooorrrrr, the wording of the story, rather than the subject itself, could be written in such a way as to induce laughter or even joy! Hooray!

In a similar theme, we have been wonderin' about a little somethin'...... we have been known to let our hair down at the odd metal jig, and can't deny taking enjoyment out of a bit of cheeky head bangin' to Slayer, Mayhem, or Bathory. Siiiccckkkk. However! Some of the 'godfathers' of the scene, like that naughty Varg Vikernis, were, as well as being dark musical overlords, ignorant  racist, murderous sociopaths. So! We thought.... Is it wrong to listen to their music, buy their records, and support  them? By doing so are we in fact supporting their wayward beliefs? We were sad to think that we had to let them go, but were prepared to do so if it meant not allying ourselves with racist creepazoids! But, my pretty young thangs, we finally came together and decided that we could sit somewhere the grey area. If we were to to choose not to listen to anyone whose beliefs were askew we would end up burning our entire record collections! Bad Brains? Homophobic! Dj Premier from Gang Starr? It is rumored that he is the same again. But don't fret, precious gems, of course we would never willingly suppport ignorant or evvviiilllll jerkkkzzzz, so we said to ourselves that the line we would draw is this - if they are a bunch of openly skinhead punks, with lyrics, merchandise, and band-names that openly encourage racism or any other kind of hatred, we will turn our backs on them with the utmost outrage. But- if the individuals involved in making the music are themselves morally reprehensible, but their music does not belay their beliefs in terms of direct lyrical content and sloganeering, we will choose to love the music - just not the men.
Now that's positive!

Top Five happy moments of 2011

....as contributed by entire staff at PGL
1. Laughing at the names David FURY and Thomas WANKER on the credit reel of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
2. Pissing off a Jedi at Supanova Pop Culture Fan Convention by touching his X-Wing Fighter replica without permission.
3. Dancing without any shame at a Blank Realm gig until drinks were spilt all over the dance-floor, then dancing on top of the spill regardless.
4. Eating bubblegum flavoured icecream.
5. Eating pancakes in bed at midnight.

Fresh house fresh tunes fresh shiiiiiiitttttttt! How happy we are that feminism allowed chix to rule da world and themselves.

The advances of feminism in the 20th century paved the way for women to not only have equal pay and rights in the workplace, but equal rights to actually choose to be a housewife, or a businesswoman, or a butch tradie with forearms the size of elephant legzzzzz. So there is much pleasure to be taken from cranking Kool and the Gang and pluggin' in the Dyson for a hearty old vacuum, knowing that the sistas of feminism past would be damn pleased with you doin' what you wanna do and not giving a shiiiiit. Once the carpet is clean, you reward yourself with a fresh shower and a fresh cold brewski. Try it. Feel the empowerment.

Shoobeedoobeedoobeedoobeewah!

Feeling blue? No parties to rock out at? Or, working to hard to allow yourself to rock out? Choccie isn't curing you, and that usually helpful ol' G n' T just making you glummer? We have the answer to your woes! Ready? Ready? Alright, we're gonna tell ya!!! BEE GEES- You Should Be Dancing. Because you know what hunny? You really should.

BLANK REALM- FULLY SICK.

Blank Realm is, in case you don’t know, the best band in Brisbane. Simultaneously  the ‘coolest’ band to come out of our little town, and the most unpretentious folks you’ll ever meet, Luke, Sarah, and Dan Spencer, and Luke Walsh a.k.a Dubsie have progressed from an experimental noise band of relative anonymity into something catchier and much more popular, while still retaining all of the underground appeal, originality, and down to earth good vibes that attracted their fans in the first place. PGL spoke to Sarah and Dan over some champagne and cheesy toast.

PGL – Describe Blank Realm in the two funniest words you can?

Dan - um….

PGL– hurry up.

D – that’s a lot of pressure to be funny.

Sarah - horny

D- live and horny.

PGL– what’s the sickest thing about being in Blank Realm?

S- babes.

D- rockin’ it.

PGL–  you guys recently went to America for South by South West. What’s the tastiest thing you ate over there?

D- buffalo hot wings.

D- I went on the sides tour of America. It was like recreating Sizzler.

D-raspberry cheesecake at Juniors in New York was good.

S- and soul foods.

PGL – what’s your favourite thing on the Jo Jos menu?

D – chips with mushroom sauce.

S – chocco mousse.

D- chocco mouse? What do you mean?

S- they do chocco mouse there.

D- oh. I…. wouldn’t.

PGL – what a snob.

PGL – do you think Dan is a snob?

S- absolutely.

PGL– do you get a lot of babes coming to your shows?

S- the boys do.

PGL – not so many fellahs?

S- maybe the fellahs just don’t come up and talk to me.

PGL –  did you used to have less babes?

D- yeah. I think maybe when you’re an experimental band or whatever we were, babes don’t come.

PGL – do you reckon when we started coming to  your shows the babes followed because we were there?

D- I think you’re definitely babe trend setters.

PGL –  who’s the funniest band member stoned?

D- EVERYBODY knows the answer to that.

S- the answer is we don’t. We don’t smoke the love.

D- it would be the person who asked how marshmallows grow.

S- oh yeah…. They grow in thatches.

PGL –  who’s the funniest band member drunk?

D- probably Sarah.

S- or Luke? He dances more.

PGL –  what’s the  drunkest or stonedest you’ve ever been?

D – that time I tried to make everyone cut up their credit cards.

S- probably the time I greened out in the dug-out at UQ and Dubsie had to drive me home.

PGL – if you could be a mixture of three different celebrities bodies, faces, and personalities, what three celebs would you be?

D- I would have Grace Jones face, Homer Simpsons body, and the personality of Captain Beefheart.

S- that’d be kinda weird to have a yellow body and a black face.

PGL –  who do you think is hotter, Bill Pullman or Bill Paxton?

D- I can’t tell the difference to be honest.

PGL –  our sources tell us you once watched Twister in slow motion. How funny was Bill Paxton in slow motion?

D – that was his best work. He was amazing in slow motion.

PGL – was it scary?

D – it was kind of scary how much I laughed at it. I thought I was actually gonna perish from laughter.

PGL – what’s the funniest thing you’ve ever watched on Youtube?

D- probably a video of this guys collection of VCR’s. He had himself superimposed over it with a green screen and had a German bowl cut.

S- my classic Youtube is Smell yo’ Dick. We once sung that to Harriet (from Circle pit, Southern Comfort) instead of ‘happy birthday’ when she turned 21.

PGL –  do you guys think Prince is a babe?

D- no.

S – no.

PGL – Prince is a Jehovahs witness. If he came door knockin’ at your house and said “turn to Jesus” would you do it just because he’s Prince?

D- no, but I would try and trick him into singing a hit.

PGL – we only have one other question but can’t read it. we think it says…. Um….so, did you…. you would go…. along when…. Mit your hee…..? What do you have to say about that?

S- absolutely.

D- definitely. No doubt. That’s the best question yet.

PGL – any shout outs?

S- shouting out to my man!

S- we’ll just shout out to the people of Syria.

D- what the f*ck? I just want to shout out to all my brothers on the inside.

PGL – you KNOW  we're gonna print that!

yoooouutube- its YOURtube baby.

Totally rad things to watch on You-tube.

After hours of research, we selected 5 essential you-tube hits.

Type in these keywords.

You know you can’t resist.

Mariah carey + brian mcknight- whenever you call. If this doesn’t make you cry like a newborn baby, catapulted into the world with few coherent thoughts and only the rawest of human emotion, wanting only to be warmly ensconced back in your mothers womb…. you truly have no heart.

Nike + it was a good day. If pro-skateboarding, phat beats, and hilarious times tickle your fancy, you’re in for one hell of a treat.

Backstreet boys + Backstreets back. I never realised when I totally dug this song that they totally copied Michael Jackson’s Thriller video clip!

Rhythm cats. Three cats dancing as one.  It’s three cats dancing!

Shadows with Nas. I should have left at 50%. But I like to have a full power bar.

Pullman Vs. Paxton - Sexy Stuff Analyzzzzeeddd.

PULLMAN VS. PAXTON- A.K.A. THE SENSITIVE SOUL VERSUS THE BAD BOY - A COMPARITIVE ESSAY OF MALE APPEAL ON THE FEMALE PYSCHE.

Pullman and Paxton- one, a dopey nice guy; the other, a bad-ass ladies man. In a world where good guys, playas, and playas dressed as nice guys abound, which characteristic is really better? What do women want? We find out.

PULLMAN – The archetypal ‘GOOD GUY.’

Bill Pullman, as Walter, with his soft cheeks, soulful eyes, and hapless charm, wooed the socks off Annie Reed in Sleepless in Seattle. That is, until she cruelly abandoned him on the most romantic day in the western hemisphere – Valentines Day- upon realising she had the hots for Sam Baldwin. (Tom Hanks). Classed as a romantic comedy, Sleepless has always seemed to us like a cutting drama, revolving around a female stalker played by Meg Ryan. If we were playing with our kid on a secluded beach, we would be fairly disturbed to discover a man staring at us the entire time- let alone to find out he had travelled interstate to track us down. But because she’s a pretty lady, it all okay, right? Wrong. And poor old Walter, left alone, crushed and brutally rejected by a cunning vixen. His only flaw?  He had a bad case of the allergies. If it were up to us, we‘d be picking up where she left off.

Another classic role Pullman has in his under-the-radar career was that of president Thomas J Whitmore in the blockbuster smash, Independence Day. Who could resist a bloke who stays calm when faced with an alien invasion?

And finally, he has always had to live up to the bodily and acting standards set by Bill Paxton. With Paxton’s muscles, and admittedly far more substantial filmography…. Well, Pullman has done well to hold his head up high.

BABE APPEAL RATING - 5 out of 5

  

BILL PAXTON – THE ARCHETYPAL ‘Bad boy.’

Bill Paxton.  Piercing eyes, and a chest that brings to mind the turn of phrase “rippling muscles.”

He played the tornado obsessed Bill in Twister, and our hearts were twisted right out of our chests when we saw him heroically saving the day. Any man who can not only stay calm in the face of natural disaster of epic proportions, but also maintain a steady banter of witty one –liners, has got our vote.

He’s a ladies man. In the HBO hit Big Love, Paxton plays Bill Henrickson, father and husband – of THREE WIVES. Okay, so it was his Mormon polygamist beliefs that drew the sexy ladies to him more than his sex appeal, but that does mean he hasn’t got pulling power. Plus, scoring  Chloe Sevigny is no mean feat!

He has cameo-d in some awesome movies, such as Terminator. And he had a bright blue Mohawk in it! That’s hot.

He has managed to play the roles of at least four characters called Bill. Call me crazy, but any man who is assertive enough to demand he play himself over and over again has got some pulling power.

BABE APPEAL RATING - 4 out of 5

CONCLUSION - In comparing the two Bills, it’s a tough choice. The bad boy, Paxton has got the charisma, but has he got the heart? As far as we’re concerned, a man who isn’t satisfied with one wife but instead needs multiples to boost his ego can get lost. No denying that he has surface charm, but when it comes down to it, the nice guy is the one who is gonna hold your hand while you’re watching the fireplace….. Or at least, while you’re watching Sleepless In Seattle one more time.
