who?

im not saying its a fact im just looking for some answers myself. i finally got to the source of this information and it was written in the youtube comments of the full warp 10 live show.

heres the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=02UH1QrqwTs

now that i know the only place this information exists is in the youtube comments of a video i am very unconvinced... also the user said it happened last Tuesday so im pretty sure that news would have gotten here by now...

sorry if i got any hopes up.

It's ok - you won't be the first (or last) to buy this kind of thing. I recall several other examples and I've wanted to believe every single one of them

If this did happen then the venue mentioned (The Toff, Melbourne - looks like a hipsters paradise to me) have kept it super-quiet. The guy on YouTube talks about 'last Tuesday' which could either be the 3rd or 10th of Sept. The 10th had a gig by someone who makes no mention of any special guests etc, again either before or after on their own website, FB, etc and the 3rd simply had a poster from the venue of upcoming events. Again, no coded messages, no hints, even afterwards.

The only other thing that could make some sort of sense - it you want to stretch the semantics a little - would be that they were flown in 'last Tuesday' but haven't played yet.

All in all, this stinks of BS to me. Still, one day. One day...

Until then, be still my beating heart

why would Inertia, a sydney based company, fly boc here to play a live show in melbourne?
not buying it

Come on MDG do your job..

Debunking stupid fake rumors that gullible people pick up from youtube comments? If that's his job he should quit because it's beneath him.

To be fair, I'm not so sure any of this is his 'job' per se. Anything he cares to comment on I'd imagine he does of his own volition and I'm grateful for any information he shares with us. I'll wager that shouting the odds at him ain't likely to get a positive reply.

But then I'm sure that wasn't how it was intended anyway, right?

I bet Abbott bumps the new record in his car.

hey Sean, off topic, but who'd you vote for in the recent election? Not meaning to start a debate, just questioning.

yeah when i found out my bud got his info from a youtube comment i was just like come on man...

i was super psyched. at least we got a hell interface remix that seems pretty legit.

i voted in Indi :~)
so i voted for Cathy McGowan (independent) and i didnt vote in the senate

cool beans, I went Labor.

Good lot that did, eh?

I also replied to this dude's comment on Youtube, and he replied back;

I SAID:
nope.
fuck off.
this is youtube comments, the most unreliable source of information in the world, give us more than that. A confirmation from the right people, a picture, a ticket, anything than just your word.
You must know how shittily that would hold up nowadays

HE SAID:
I SWEAR this is true. I'm gutted I couldn't go because I'm in Perth (the other side of the country)
I have a friend who works for a music shop here in Australia, JB HI-FI. He went to a music convention two weeks ago and were told by Inertia themselves that they paid BOC to come play an extremely secret show at The Toff. Only people in the distribution companies knew of this, not the public.

what do ya think, gang?

contact inertia? the dude seems pretty adamant about his source.

strangely enough MDG shot down the Whitty Hustler remix track, but no this.

INTERESTING... *strokes mustache*

Yeah its a shame.. I was honestly fooled by the remix.

That's why mdg interfered with the remix: mostly everyone thought it was real. It seems only when a hoax gets out of hand mdg posts.
