Check out the new Powderfinger video for Burn Your Name. It was filmed in Chiang Mai, Thailand, at the Yi Peng festival (or Festival of Lights). It’s a festival where people light a lantern and set it adrift, sending all their troubles away…
Jess caught up with Powderfinger drummer Jon Coghill as they release their new album, Golden Rule.
In an Australian first, Powderfinger is set to launch their highly-anticipated album Golden Rule, with a live online concert on the eve of the album’s release. Powderfinger will perform every song from Golden Rule live from their band room in Brisbane. The webcast will take place at 8.00pm EST on Thursday 12 November and the footage will be broadcast live and exclusively on the Fairfax Digital news and youth websites.
This unique initiative offers music lovers from around the world the opportunity to be the first to hear Golden Rule live and from the comfort of their living room. If one taste isn’t enough, the live experience will be available on the Fairfax Digital news sites until the 24/02/2010

POWDERFINGER NEW ALBUM GOLDEN RULE OUT NOVEMBER 13
NEW SINGLE ALL OF THE DREAMERS OUT NOW!
As we enter the warmer months the anticipation builds about music festivals. Summer is such a great time on the Gold Coast because we are a destination of many big festivals including The Big Day Out , Good Vibrations and Summa Field Dayze. The first lot of acts have recently been announced for the 2010 Big Day Out and I must say I am very excited at the chance to see Powderfinger again. A few beers, warm weather and watching Powderfinger live just on sunset - it doesn’t get much better. I have always been a regular at the Big day Out each year and I remember some of the best ones. Seeing a very young Silverchair in the mid 90’s, Metallica, Green Day, Foo Fighters and Soundgarden are all highlights. It makes me ask the question what would be your ultimate lineup. Please send through your responses and I will see if I agree, here from you soon.
