Tunes

Alright, time for some discussion on what yr all listening too. My iTunes inventory is getting a little stale so I'm up for some inspiration.

Currently loving The Drones' album "Havilah".. incredible songwriting and some of the best recorded guitars and drum I've heard in a long time. I'm a little late to the party with this album but it's on high rotation at the moment and will probably stay there a while. I've seen these guys live once (Fowlers, Adelaide) and fortunately they're incredible on stage too. Can't wait to see them again.

Amnesiac and to a lesser extent Kid A here, the other stuff I didn't really get into, Creep never appealed. I guess I like them at their more experimental.

Rock music can still change and morph, Choir Choir Choir takes an iconic rock song to a whole new level of magical inclusiveness, imagine how chuffed you would be if you were David Bowie.

I did tell Adam 12 that AW is Croc Dundee and that base 6 had a great idea 2 boost my popularity , but said things Normal , in SN Land .

I sent a video on Insta ( I CAN DO that :) to my friends yesterday .

I wrote " Nothing unusual happening here , don't rush home if your O/S " .

It was titled " Meanwhile , in Australia " .

It showed an AW type , rescue his dog from a Monster Roo , by shaping Up , giving it a Right Cross and surprising the shit out of , King Kong Kangaroo !

The tune " Do U Come From a Land Down Under " playing in the background .

Like Ali hitting Muscle Man Forman , in the Thriller in Manilla , in the first round .

Ali was once " The King " of the ring .

Adam 12 said I should Patent , the Shark SUP !

Happy Sunday base six :)

I heard an old song this morning on PBS 106.7 FM , that got me Up and pretending 2B Jagger .

Blood Sweat and Tears , were big in the early 70's and faded , quickly , away .

"When I Die " - some lyrics .

When I die and when I'm gone .
There will be 1 Child born , To Carry On .

The song has a Gospel feel so I just put up a message on The Religion Thread , after watching the Unreal Ethereal Ely Cathedral Clips .

Cheers mate .

tbb scored 12 months Unlimited Free Entry + Low level Access > (Bar/DJ/Video Lounge/Bands)
Shared drinks with legends @ PCs / Punks Corner
PC = Beating Heart of the Playroom > VDub DJ 'BB' /Speaker Stax /Band Access + Pit/Upstairs Entry
Wanna change the Anarchic Vibe > Need to grapple with head Punk in a pit of death beer cup surf off!

1980 [factcheck] Takes 10 up themselves armed Skegz to trap 1 Goldie punk chick in the Underpass.
The Playroom Pit was a wasteland of Skegz that can't cup surf to change the tune...
eg: Punkz guarded the Dub r.i.p DJ BB (Organist) to cue our Demolition trax > Skegz had to fight for a Pablo Cruiser.

Us insiders know Bill was Oz R&R HQ Brainz Trust!
Go between Surf Punk Artist Chook got them up to speed...if ya know wot tbb means.

Punkz Corner was the Beating Heart of The Playroom...
So wotz the Thin Lizzy link...tbb actually hung with the band back in 1980.

1980 rogue visitors were exempted by punkz ...come meet some of our Goldie playmates...
* Not sure on exact dates as Beryl would usually crash the Oz Tours to claim exclusive "Oz First" Gigs!
Rock HQ Queen would treat Bandz as Godz & in return they hung with or invited locals on stage
*2 June Boomtown Rats /16 Aug The Cure /30 Aug Vapors / 20 Sept XTC / 10 Oct Romantics / 11/12 Oct Thin Lizzy / *6 Nov Motels

Just sayin...tbb saw all them bands for free but also hung with them for an hour or so at PC.

Thin Lizzy maybe in the News...for sympathetic reason...recent passing of Prog Keyboard Warrior.
