"What if one of YOUR favorite politicians/celebrities/etc is on the list?" Did you all not notice how quickly we dropped Neil Gaiman when we found out about the things he did? Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

Look it's a chart of the quality of Aussie pub bands since the 70s
Gough raised unemployment benefits to their highest level relative to poverty - then Fraser (and his treasurer John Howard) fucked it up as soon as they could.

Hawke/Keating repaired some of the damage... then Howard fucked it up for good

Living up to my name and went to two gigs on the weekend.
Blood Incantation supported by Secret Chiefs 3 @ Northcote Theatre on Saturday, then Secret Chiefs 3 supported by Umlaut @ Max Watts. Absolutely exhausted, but fantastic shows. Off to buy a bunch of gig tickets I'll hate myself for later.

It's great, but it's much too large for me. I'd love the figures though, and the shuttle. Hopefully in the future they do mini versions of the ships with the captain of each as a figure. I'd buy the heck out of those.

Spent last couple of days dusting and reorganising the little-transforming-guys shelves. Have a few apparently. Need to sell some.

Regurgitator Announce 2026 'Retrospective Of Singles' Australian Tour
Regurgitator Announce 2026 'Retrospective Of Singles' Australian Tour
Regurgitator are yet to embark on their Jukeboxxin’ tour across the country – that starts next month – and yet, they can’t get enough of touring. From February to May 2026, the quirky Aussie rockers will embark on another Retrospective of Singles/Jukeboxxin’ tour, touching down in even more locations next year. Part two of Regurgitator’s Jukeboxxin’ tour begins in Mount Gambier, SA, on Friday, 6 February. From there, the band will perform in Adelaide, Port Lincoln, Hobart, Launceston, Ulverstone, San Remo, Ballarat, Bendigo, Byron Bay, the Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Fremantle, Dunsborough, Perth, Ulladulla, Canberra, Albury, Wollongong, Newcastle, Sydney, Melbourne, Cairns, Townsville, Mackay, Brisbane, Toowoomba, and Springwood, wrapping up on Sunday, 3 May. All dates on the tour, excluding 6-15 March, will see Regurgitator joined by SA Music Awards-winning hip-hop group, DEM MOB, with more special guests coming along for the ride. Tickets are available now via Oztix and “all usual outlets.” Ahead of the tour, the band teased: A fistful of fizzers poppin’ packets over a hard driving 32 years plus. REGURGITATOR have spun the dial and played it each and every way. Sui generis jukebottin’ amid droids of repetition, jabbin' society in the eye with a groove full of politics. 55 tablatures of candy fix… punch a coin in the slot. Press play, hit repeat. After last year's INVADER of the new comes a deep droid into those much-loved plateaus of the nostalgia machine. Blister packin’ energy tracked in cycles of repetition - single after single after single adds up to some decent multitudes. Siftin' through their deca-drome of albums and slew of EPs. Robotic arms clawing in muscle memory. Wry rotations juking that stimuli… from Like it Like That’s and Kong Foo Sing’s... to Black Bugs, Polyester Girl’s through the Songs Formerly Known As, to the Pest’s and Cocaine Runaways… the shuffling bots - Quan, Ben, Pete, and latest keytaring effervescence Sarah - with their selector effects will cram as many hits as they canned into near on two hours of aural sugar that drips and drops.

I think the Slow Horses theme "Strange Game" upsets me so much because it sounds like a drunk Peter Garrett, and now I'm wondering has PG always sounded like Mick Jagger doing a funny voice?

When you only really want one CD but to make the order worth the postage you order 3 more, but then the one you really want is cancelled :(

New lawsuit against AI music company Suno just landed - brought by a group of independent musicians.

The same group of musicians who also sued Udio this week.

The Monkey was a great film. Most fun I've had since first seeing Final Destination.
