	Upstart Jet gains ground on withering Vines
		Front man Nic Cester is more grounded than the Vines’ Nicholls, but Cester drew a stronger reaction for the crowd with fine vocal and guitar work.
		Cester and Cameron Muncey traded off inspired guitar solos throughout the show on such songs as “Rollover D.J.” and “Get What You Need,” while leather-clad bassist Mark Wilson struck perfect rock-star poses.
		The thunderous reply of “Yesss!” served notice that Jet is the newest Aussie force to be reckoned with, while the Vines had better keep a sharp eye on their rear-view mirror.

		Nic Cester, 24, the group's scruffy frontman, appears on the verge of collapse, while Wilson frets over his bloody finger, callused from perpetual bass plucking.
		Nic's brother, Chris, 22, is turning a sickly shade of yellow as guitarist Cameron Muncey, 24, repeatedly blows his nose into a well-used Kleenex.
		Glasgow is something of a homecoming for the half-Scottish, half-Italian Cesters; they grew up in Melbourne, but a large chunk of their extended family still lives in Scotland.

		Nic Cester of Jet is somewhere in America touring with fellow Aussie rock revivalists the Vines, and he is just waking up.
		"Radio Song" aside, in general, Cester says Jet doesn't worry about the commercial pressures of the industry, not because the band doesn't care, but because they know it is out of their hands.
		Since being on the road with Jet has been Cester's only experience of America, he admits that the rock 'n' roll lifestyle has meant that he has not had much time to be a tourist.

	Jet @ The Astoria, London
		Cester's bravado appears to be partly Australian male and partly beer-induced (the two being very closely correlated, you understand) but the cockiness and alcohol are aligned perfectly with the greasy, scuzzy, rock 'n' roll party dynamics of the music.
		For the encore, Cester comes on with his acoustic guitar to give us a startling rendition of Move On, with his brother and otherwise drummer, Chris, on vocal duties.
		The fact that Nic is obliviously puffing away on a cigarette whilst telling us this merely lends a macabre irony to the raw, blues-y ballad.

	Bands declare a truce for tribute - Music - www.theage.com.au
		While Jet undoubtedly stole the limelight at last Sunday's ARIA Awards, it was a tribute to former rocker Stevie Wright, organised by Jet singer Nic Cester, that stole the show.
		The idea of the tribute was conceived by Cester after he read a recent biography of Wright, Hard Road, and was dismayed to discover that Wright's debut solo album of the same name was no longer available.
		When the new version of the song is released as an EP around Christmas-New Year, Cester hopes it will put rock back at the top of the singles charts, and once again help out the ailing Wright, who, along with charities, will be the recipient of any profits.

		Nic Cester: In the trendy cities everyone is too cool for school.
		Chris Cester: It’s such a cliché man! We went to this like trendy bar in New York where our bass player Mark Wilson was DJ-ing last night, and he was [having a laugh], playing really obscure and bad Australian rock music, and we were watching people dancing to it pretending to know what it was.

		I stumbled upon this article this morning; basically it details how Jet's Nic Cester and some of his industry peers (Pat Bourke, Davey Lane, Chris Cheney, Kram Maher) got together to perform Evie Pt 2 at the recent ARIA awards.
		Well, chickened out, demurred, forgot the lyrics, lost his voice - there were about ten different excuses floating around on the night, but the simple fact was that he didn't sing; "some guy from Perth" did, and a ripper job he did, too.
		Okay, so maybe Cester decided it was a good idea to record the jam, but for Christ's sake give Goldsmith some credit for coming up with the idea of the all-star cast in the first place.

		Or, as Nic puts it so succinctly on 'Take It Or Leave It': You better roll with whatever you know/ You better move/ If you don't know what to do, here's the groove.
