Tunes
Seems more relevant than ever, but I still like to dip my toes every now and again. Here's to the radio.
PIL the Public image is Rotten
just started Viceland SBS
Watching now. Cheers
Lyndon is a dislikable bag of shite. However, he has one of the best vocal sneers. Sean Kelly of Models a very close runner up.
Hmmm this car wrecking yard clip needs something??? I know let’s get some Cold War East Germanish looking flight attendants dancing in synch.
That’s Kate Cebrano and Zan from I’m Talking.
Long live the radio...

Wow.
A less obvious one about the radio from Aussie legends.
Was listening to the Sports yesterday. Classic....and while we're on classic Aussie bands....more models.
That PIL doco was great. Never have got into their music. The pistols carnage still followed. I heard a big David Byrne and TH sound in bits. Did they influence Talking Heads?
Big thanx to crew for above trax...enjoying & will revisit + Udo's link...sounds great!
Just gonna tweak those low hanging old school Oz Loose ends...
Thanx blackers...wore out that brilliant 1979 Don't throw Stones LP
We Qldurrz loved the Sports & let it be known we treat' em real good every visit...Legends!
That's really clever icandig ... 2 cabs was a real good Alt stocking filler back in the day.
Again! Can vouch Qldurrz rated that Vic track...way up high!
Qldurrz will instinctively reward that contribution with a rare Brizzo B side.
1981 Xero (Lust in the Dust) Mini Lp (Qld bookend) > 1981 Models (Cut Lunch) Mini Lp
Yeah! Ok that's a big call but this band could support them on tour & maybe come away with the prize!
Brizzos do have a few secret gems locked away...Try to slot this one into that one...should go...Aargh!
Xero : Every Kiddy gets a Prize (AKA : The Brizzo Models) Rare track in the day (swellnet secret disc!)
Being serious...few Brizzos would dig out this rare B side...time to share the secret sound of Xero.
Didn't know John Lydon went to Jamaica with Don Letts and Richard Branson searching out reggae bands to sign.
Thanks for nothing TBB. Xero look like a band I'll have to investigate further. I enjoyed the above tune. I note that some Go Betweens members also spent some time in Xero (which is a big plus in my book). I spent some time on the GC in the late 80's early 90's, but I was too late for the Brisbane punk movement by then and don't know much about it.
Qldurrz continued tribute to The Models
This next Alternative Oz Classic is impossibly perfect!
Our Salute to Vic New Wave Godz...
Enjoy a Perfect Sunday Cruiser...cop an earful of this!
1981 The Models ~ Cut Lunch (Mini LP - Side A - Track 3) "Atlantic Romantic"
Make mine a double... ( Oh Man! Don't tell me tbb is gonna cue that uber-cool Model's song...OMG! )
The Models ~ Happy Birthday I.B.M.
Gonna do it...Models deserve a triple play but with a Tribute to a fallen Vic New Wave idol.
Qldurrz & tbb were blown away by this Model Vic Rock Star.
May 1980 LP Breaking Silence ~ Release
27th May 1980 "James Freud & The Teenage Radio Stars" opened our Gary Numan Gig
Can tell cousin Vics that he blew away our ever fussy cranky crowd at Festival Hall.
4th May 1980 Here's the Countdown Gig... song is of course "Modern Girl" (Oz New Wave Holy Grail!)
Crew can thank icandig for reigniting swellnet Model triple play for our top notch Sunday Supplement.
Happy Birthday IBM and Atlantic Romantic, thanks TBB. Their best work IMHO. Happy Sunday.

I saw 'gold bless America' above, and talk of Brisband classics - so how about 'chill out America'. A Chopper Division classic. And some good Brisband story in the comment below the vid.
The first link is a more recent live version, not the best.
this is the original '92 version, rage clip
and Icandig - you werent too late for the Bris punk scene, the early 90's you could have been in the thick of it.
the zzz boat cruises - check this ripper
That's a classic clip GreenJam. Cheers.

Sitting around...
The same old doco on NITV tonight. Still like watching it. Anyone watching?
Caught it seeds, few to come sbs or abc I think ozzy and kiss. Chuck was held in high regards both from musicians and the fans. Massive influence to many.
Best day of the week?
Emotive
Smashing the tunes out Rob.
How cool is the photo of Tony Alva on the Fu Manchu cover.
Dig those guys.
Didn't know it was Tony Alva, a little amp up.
Finest of Wine.
Ripper tune.
Early 80's Smacked Out dirty shot triple overdose...dedicated to Malcolm Owen (Ruts).
Malcolm lived long enough to record the most hauntingly raw song of any era...tough gig!
Top shelf wake up calls are from another time in space...none dare follow in their trax.
tbb can assure the crew that these trax had no equal then or since...they are the real deal!
keep on hoggin on'
The Chats new album came out this week. This one’s my favourite. Proud dad, best served with beer
good
stuff sando
'Get Fucked' is getting some great reviews, hey Sando? Difficult second album done, sky's the limit.
Sweet, keeping the ol' pub rock traditions well and truly alive. Every reason to be proud Sando.
Cheers all. . Yeah Stu, lots of people tell me they like it. They are supporting GnR (was meant to be the fooies) this year which will give them more exposure. Thanks everyone.
Unreal Sando.. can't wait to see 'em live. They've got a really nice tight sound.
Better play 6 L GTR again
Cant embed this but Meanies TV episode music and interview half an hour long, quite a few episodes of other bands/artist that might interest some too.

Tight lines.
Good BAD song
Following on from Rob. Driving 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.
