Just opened up this weeks Drum Media (Sydney music street press newspaper)and noticed an advertisment for Loaded (indie nightclub in Kings Cross) which is launching the 24 Hour Party People soundtrack on Thursday night.
So anyone in Sydney, go along and expect to hear lots of New Order, Joy Division etc ...

Thanks for that news, Brendan - if you (or anyone else here) goes, could you see if anyone knows about the release of the film here?

Just my luck, I just started a new job this week working night shifts so I won't be able to go. Would definately have gone if I wasn't working however ... Hopefully afew other Sydney siders will be able to get along there in the classy area of Kings Cross !!
Gene did a song about that... 'I was lost in Kings Cross, when I saw you...' Perhaps though if your Kings Cross is actually classy, you don't wish to know the rest!
Our Kings Cross isn't classy actually ... It is strip club, prostitute, drug taking heaven full of junkies and mafia bosses ... Not such a nice area ... But an experience I guess ..
Same as ours then Petal, the Gene song "How Much For Love" might make you chuckle then, well it did me when I read this thread first!
I'll try and listen to that track sometime .. Sounds funny .. If your a guy, you can't walk through Kings Cross without ten big burly guys pushing you into a strip club ...
Oh right, the master 
You can call it what you like, my lower-case-fixated friend. I see you're still trying with the whole 'funny' thing. 
Keep up the effort!

Oh be fair, Candy.....dC's "I heard he got the sack" line was comic genius.
Hear that RandyBear: "genius".
That's Australian for Guiness, apparently.

The radio station Tripple M was playing at work tonight and I nearly freaked when Here to Stay came on ... Jumped up from my computer and started singing and carrying on ... The stupidity of the announcers was abit to much though because after the song ended, they were like "THAT WAS HERE TO STAY !! From the album GET READY !! Thats a great CD and you can hear that song on it" ... DUHHHH
Yes.
The J's have belatedly started giving it some decent rotations as well.. Still no word on the film release, however.

An afterthought..
With 24HPP in competition at Cannes, it's entirely possible that a local indie cinema consortium will buy the flick.. A late 2002 release may well eventuate.
:\pimp2:
Lets hope so .. I'd rather see it on the big screen before seeing it on DVD although it may well come out on DVD in the UK before we see it out here ...
Forgot to mention, that 60 Miles and Hour was played on Tripple M only about an hour before they played Here to Stay !

Hey thanks for that ... Thats pretty cool that you realised it was me who wrote the ad in the drum ... The bands coming along nicely ... Just starting to write stuff now and have been playing Joy Division and New Order covers ...
