I believe I see now why they elected to become Tamam Shud. Still, it's a fascinating period piece.

I am restored to my digital life after nearly a month of move-related net deprivation, I'm happy to say. Might just squeeze in the christmas swag with luck.

Rock at its reddest!

Have I mentioned how much I like Youtube? I think I may have. To a musical trainspotter, it's heaven on earth. Before we were webbed up, who knew there were so many of us? Here's the mighty Madder Lake with the proper Australian anthem (see earlier Sunbury post). Don't think I've heard this version previously.

But wait, there is also the incredible and truly unlikely Kush, appearing on the Paul Hogan Show of all things!

Of course, many prefer their hairy old Oz rockers in glorious technicolour, the better to see what frightening shade of green polo-neck skivvy is being worn by the drummer. To that end, here is Ayers Rock. I wonder why the SG was the weapon of choice in so very many 70s Oz bands?

I see my good friend and cabaret legend Sergio Paradise Junior has got himself a blog site. I can't believe he's getting rid of Big Ron. If there were only space in Casa Straightman, I'd adopt him myself but sadly this is an impossibility. No reason why you should miss out though. Check it out at http://www.blognow.com.au/paradiso

Pickle me gandmother!

Well, I'll be jiggered! I thought my blog had disappeared from the face of the earth. There's an important lesson for you. Don't trust links.

That makes two of us who are Angry.

Fiddlesticks. Just went to load up some Sunbury-type goodies and found that not only has my last upload been deleted after only a week, Rapidshare is full as a goog and I can't load up the new post. Could be time to start looking at alternatives, methinks. Anyone know any good ones?
