Man, I have so many things to post! My internet is finally back and I've finished my university exams (yes, again, I'm trying to move to Architecture now) so I'm ready to enlight you with pics, reviews and videos.
Before we start, I was taking some pics from Fasterlouder.com.au gallery of their gig at Sydney's Metro when I came across pics of Craig Nicholls from The Vines! Like, on the same gallery as Jet. I'm a huge Vines fan so CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN WHAT IS HE DOING THERE? Craig and Jet together would be too overwhelming for me! (EDIT: Oh my! He joined Jet to sing "She's a Genius", videos anyone?)
Right, so shall we check how this last week was like for Jet:
JET LIVE AT ROD LAVER ARENA, MELBOURNE, DEC. 14th (Supporting Green Day)
Review from Fasterlouder.com.au and check a few pics on this Flickr.
As the gates opened, the early bird crowd flowed in thick and fast to catch the support act, and buy overly priced merchandise. Melbourne’s very own international success story Jet opened the night to a slowly growing crowd. Judging from my eavesdropping while waiting in line, some attendees were a bit surprised that Jet were added as Green Day’s support slot, but the overall audience reaction was a very positive one. Jet opened their set with Nic Cester walking onto the arena stage, taking to the mic and declaring ‘We are Jet, let’s rip it up!’ instantly jumping into Rip It Up.
Thankfully, rather than play obscure songs from their catalogue, Jet had arranged a setlist full of their most popular hits. Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is continued the night, which was followed by She’s a Genius the first single from recent album, Shaka Rock. By this point, those who were Jet fans were absolutely loving the atmosphere, and those who weren’t could not help but get into the mood. The highlight of Jet’s set came in Are You Gonna Be My Girl? At this point, they had well and truly settled in on stage for the night. Slowing things down, the mood calmed during Look What You’ve Done. The arena was deadly quiet, so Nic proclaimed ‘It’s so quiet here, you’d think we were at the tennis, sing along if you know the words.’
Get Me Outta Here and new single Black Hearts (On Fire) lead the conclusion of Jet’s surprisingly enjoyable set. They closed the support proceedings with Nic Cester taking to the front of the catwalk, thanking Melbourne for coming down early, as guitar riffs played melodically in the background before screeching the opening cry of the final song, Cold Hard Bitch. You’ve got to give it to Jet, they provided a very enjoyable set and proved they clearly have what it takes to warm the crowd up for one of the biggest bands in the world.

That's it for now, I could've mixed some pictures but I think I got it all right.
And when I say that's it I mean that's really it! Jet's next stop is Japan in 2010.
If any of you want to share your pics and stuff from the Australian tour, feel free to e-mail me (andrealmeneses@hotmail.com).
Cheers everyone, see you next year! Happy Christmas and have a stunning New Year's Eve!
