January 15th - National silverchair Support Day This is basically a day set aside to let the world know you love silverchair, so to show you are a supporter of the band you should wear a silverchair t-shirt to school or talk about them more often than usual on this particular day. If you do not own any silverchair t-shirts than I suggest you buy one! Most of you probably already show your continued support for the chair daily anyway, if you're anything like the pope of this Cult, that being me of course. January 26th - Australia Day This is an actual holiday for all Australians but who says others who are not Australian (but still claim to be) cannot celebrate with the rest of the aussies?? So on this day just somehow show your way of respect and patriotism to Australia, the world's best country. I bring my flag to school, LOL wear it like a cape if you have to!
February 4th - Anniversary of Freak Show's Worldwide release Basically the only thing you have to do on this holiday is listen to the entire Freak Show album and achknowledge that it was a very big day in silverchair's music career.
March 16th - Anniversary of Neon Ballroom's Worldwide release Yet again, you must listen to the entire album, track 1 to track 12 and again take the time to sit back and reflect on the wonder that is silverchair.
April 22nd - Daniel-mas Some of you may look at this and say "what the hell is Daniel-mas??" Well as most of you have probably heard there was this guy named Jesus, and he was a supposed "savior." So they made his birthday a holiday and that's why we have "Christmas." But not in this Cult, we do not believe in Christmas, instead we believe in the birth of our saviors. So on this holy day Daniel Johns was born and I declare this day "Daniel-mas." To celebrate go out and get yourself something, or convince your parents of this holiday and have them provide you with a present of some sort. (preferably silverchair related)
May 27th - National Vegan Day This is a holiday set to show Daniel we support and respect his beliefs about animal liberation. The rules for this day, eat no animal products, just for a day people I think you can do it! No cheese, no milk, no ice cream!! and also listen to Spawn Again a few times, it sets the mood for the day.
June 20th - Anniversary of Frogstomp's Worldwide release Again, the same as the other two album's anniversaries, just listen to the entire Frogstomp CD and take into consideration that if this CD had not made it big like it did, we may not.. (hold you breath, this is hard to say!!...) We may not have a "silverchair". Where would the music industry be without silverchair?? Like I said before, take the time to reflect the wonder that is silverchair.
July 7th - Llama Appreciation Day This is a day to respect the kick-ass animal, the Llama. As we all know silverchair has/had a soft spot fot this animal since day one, so as loyal fans we must go to the zoo! LOL, kidding, just I guess let people know you're a Llama supporter and you will be for the rest of your life. Tell them you have "Llama's Forever" tatooed on your ass.
August 5th - silverchair Thanksgiving This is not a food holiday, this is just a day where you sit around and talk to your posters and thank them for making such wicked music that no one can live without and still have a complete life. Or huge fans will write a letter to silverchair on this day thanking them for their music, all silverchair fan mail goes to the following address: silverchair P.O Box 15 Merewether, NSW Australia 2291
September 14th - Watson Appreciation Day This day goes out to the man behind silverchair, Mr. John Watson, the greatest manager alive. Just basically remember ol' Watto because as Ben once said, and I quote straight from the Book of Ben, "Watson's the cool one". Enough said, Watson Rules!!
October 17th - Frog Appreciation Day It's very self explanitory, just appreciate frogs, the coolest creature on our planet to the present date. No frog stomping allowed!!
October 24th - Ben-mas Similar to "Daniel-mas", except on this day we worship another one of the three saviors, Ben Gillies, greatest drummer to ever live. For details on how "Ben-mas" came to be please refer to "Daniel-mas" the explaination is all there.
November 10th - Chris-mas The same as "Daniel-mas" and "Ben-mas". This day is a day to salute our beloved bassist which we've come to know and love over the last few years, silverchair would never be as good without that poppin' bass line our Chris brings in!! We wuv you!
November 26th - Australian Music Day Another real holiday that this Cult strongly believes in, this is a day for Aussie music and Aussie music only! You may be saying "what if all the australian music I have is silverchair?" I have one thing to say to that "What are you complaining about???" Just listen to silverchair all day if you don't have any other aussie music, but might I suggest a few, Magic Dirt, You Am I, Men at Work, The Living End... and the list goes on.
December 8th - Freak Appreciation Day This is the final holiday The silverchair Cult people celebrate each year, this is a day to basically take the time to accept everyone, because everyone is different and that kicks ass. If we were all the same majority of people would commit suicide just to stand out a bit, people who express themselves are cool, freaks are cool, anyone who is fuckin' different is cool, so if you look at it my way everyone is fuckin' cool in their own way. But let's not forget the coolest people in our entire universe, Ben Gillies, Chris Joannou and Daniel Johns.
This pretty much wraps up our holidays, add them to your calendars people, they are very important days and you wouldn't want to forget them now would you??
