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.

Nice finds everyone... especially those joining in on the themes ;)
Blackers, I noticed Dick changed a couple of words to soften the tone on that last one.

Next up...

I had a Manowar song lined up to post for the transport theme, but the theme ended before I could slip it in there. Now I've just come across this... though it's more a tribute & piss take rather than a cover:

Extra Extra. In news today Vince Vance and his cohort waited 30 years to sue Mariah and hers. Wants a 20 million share of the takings. I reckon Pee Wee Herman might have a claim on it too.

You can chuckle at Jack Robinson’s approach to competition if you like, doubt the veracity of his scores and generally cast a pall over the way he’s thinking outside the box in pursuit of success.

But you can’t argue with his obvious personal turnaround as a man coming to grips with his power over his own destiny. Robbo is taking the bull by the horns and taking control. He might not be responsible for the scores handed down by the judges but he’s taking responsibility for everything else.

Robbo has the EYE

Had a great weekend of gigs in Adelaide with my two bands Rash and Diplomat. Highlight undoubtedly being Adalita doing guest vocals for 'Wrote You Off' for the finale of Screamfeeder's set. Incredible moment.

Midnite Special : Old School prog rocker that blew up MTV.
1981 tune was banned...not for gutsy Cross Cultural yuppie parody but for something more serious!
Vid centres around The Prez being Tried & Fried on The Electric Chair.
Thus the Song was buried whenever & wherever it could be!

Strange how tbb had to conjure it up...after some jaded thoughts...Hell yeah! That forgotten song!

Tune was new in every way...like other 70's Prog Rockers that spun out the '80's Kidz.
Song addresses the mass I.D crisis & Suicides during this fast paced New Wave era...
World changed much faster back in the day...hard for today's youth to reckon with that!
Punkz + New waverz saluted the Old Dude for dumping his hot mess on the table!

Frank Zappa ...You are wot you is...and that's all it is!

Ok! This song does have an odd companion of sorts that flips everything on it's head.
1984 Quirky off beat tune & vocal style with lots of trad instrumental fusion.
This song deserves credit as it was near impossible to come up with a totally new sound at this point in time!
Yet these guys did just that! Crew can hear the clever heavy layering it took to achieve this...but it works.
Such a cool sophisticated sound...carves out a space in time that only they could forge!
Wotz even better for us...is hardly anyone knows...can be our secret!

What is This...Mind My have still I < ( sdrawkcab sdaer )

Following the recent cold snap I purchased a pair black fingerless gloves. Wonderful things that keep my hands warm yet I can still type effectively or eat hot dumplings without getting them dirty.

Since wearing them I've developed an involuntary, repetitious spasm that sees me cock my right arm, flex the bicep, and clench my glove-covered fist.

It's not an uncomfortable affliction, truth is I get a lip-curling kick out of it, yet I've no idea what's brought it on.

Anyway, here's some Billy Idol:
