DHB score a
TREV Nomination

DHB were nominated as the TREV BEST HEADLINING BAND (Entertainment) by Kim Portch from Gordon Institute of TAFE for their performance there in September.
Alas it was not to be as DHB lost out to Regurgitator, which was a shock to all concerned, mainly to DHB drummer Matt Rose who wondered how a band with a major recording contract and with somewhat of a celebrity profile would even be eligible for such a contest. It isn't that Regurgitator isn't a worthy winner; they are, but when you compare them to the other nominees in this category and see a lot of humble, hard-working bands with much lower profiles than the 'Gurge, well, it seems a little one-sided. According to Deb's sister Tammy, it was like "giving a Little Aths award to Cathy Freeman".
It isn't the first time Matt and Regurgitator have crossed paths. Matt was previously the drummer for another Melbourne area band, who had scored an opening slot for the 'Gurge. Without a doubt it most certainly would have been this band's most important gig to date. With only six days remaining until the big show, it was decided that Matt was no longer in the band and that the sound man was immediately replacing him on drums. He was given this news over a $100 "sorry we're sacking you" steak dinner.
So it appears that, as far as Matt is concerned, Regurgitator represents some kind of karmic force destined to ruin his career at every opportunity. On the other hand, it could just be a spooky coincidence.
