I think http://www.thebazookas.com/review.htm is ingame, because you have this link only by reading jon's journal, i haven't been able to find that link searching the site www.thebazookas.com.

Here i have transcribed the review:

Review
The Quad July 7th 2004 (In the bottom: By Barney Yellow Donkey)

In the beginning there was light.

Not much of it, as the stage lights at The Quad seemed just
a little on the dim side tonight, but more than enough to
make our heroes as the take to the stage to an
eeriely spooky song you'd recognise from 'O Brother
Where Art Thou?'. The intro music provides a stark and
almost unsetting contrast to the swagger of our favourite
quite-lairy-when-they've-had-a-few-drinks-and-the-
footbal-isn't-going-to-plan noise merchants. I was quite unsettled...

Page 2:
And then aforementioned eerie spookiness is ripped
asunder as The Bazookas tear into "If The Weather Stays
Fine'. Somebody dial 999, The Bazookas are on fire. It's
easily their best performance to date and the lads don't
even take a breath before the dying notes of 'Weather'
becomes the thunderous 'Stay With Me'. It's relentless -
a barrage of perfect guitar fuelled madness, delivered
with incredible energy -and unbelievably yet again the
lads decline to take a breather and launch straight into
'Walk Like An Egyptian'. We're fifteen minutes into the gig
before The Wardy finally acknowledges the enrapt crowd,

Page 3:
with a theatrical 'Good Evening'. If this gig was Jerry
McGuire and The Bazookas were Tom Cruise (but a bit
taller than the midget scientologist) and the bedazzled
crowd was Rene Zelwegger, they all would have shouted
back, 'you had us at 'good",

But they didn't.

That would just have been weird.

Because it wasn't Jerry McGuire.

Page 4:
And SoundmanDan wouldn't have shouted anything
anyway, as The Bazookas' notorious soundman was
justifying his notoriety by being so drunk he was no
longer able to speak (along with Jon Harker who was
being encouraged to 'Phone In Sick Tomorrow'). How
delightfully Withnailian! Dan was to cement his star
soundman status by defecating all over his girlfriend's
house that night. What a guy! What a night!

The crowd, however, did shout back their manic approval
and roared on by around 400 devotees, The Bazookas made

Page 5:
half an hour of guitar bliss seem like five minutes. Time
flies when you're having fun - and my watch had sprouted
wings. More was to come as a conspicuously conspicuous
beardy man (maybe a terrorist?) with maracas invaded
the stage to accompany the lads on 'Party at the Weekend'.
When The Wardy asked his name the by-now very
conspicuously conspicuous beardy man introduced
himself as 'Jesus' to huge cheers from the ecstatic crowd.
There was a passing resemblance - but tonight the
saviours of rock n'roll are The Bazookas.
I have seen the future and yes, I believe!

The text 'Phone In Sick Tomorrow' is a link to the music section, with 2 mp3.
The text 'I have seen the future and yes, I believe!' is a link to the photo section, that reports in the main page:

@LiquidXY:
The page www.thebazookas.com/review.htm is NOT accessible from the site itself, it's accessible only from jon's journal.

The SITE is out of game, the PAGE i think is ingame. This is a 'new' band, stella artois could have sponsorized them in exchange of this.

If the page contains useful informations I don't know, it mentions Jon, there are also some familiar ingame situations references.

Re: New Cache Entry

Ok, I have to admit I didn't read that review page very well as I didn't even see the name Jon Harker! Doh!

To repent for my sins I'm sending an in-game email to infoSPLATthebazookas.com to see if they bite.

EDIT:

One other thing, has anyone analysed the mp3 track titled "Phone In Sick Tomorrow"?

I'm new to the ARG scene and I was wondering if there were any tricks the PM's did concerning sounds etc.

Here's a direct link to the track: http://www.thebazookas.com/phone.mp3
