I found old footage of me producing this 1989 recording session with Brian May from #Queen and David Gilmour from #PinkFloyd.

It was for my #RockAidArmenia version of Smoke on the Water.

Some really lovely memories here - I was so happy to get them together in the studio!!

Opinion | You don’t accidentally allow 60 black-clad Nazis to parade in front of Parliament House holding an antisemitic banner. You allow it because you want to, @marquelawyers.com.au writes.
It's no accident that Nazis rallied in Sydney. Police waved them through — and now Minns wants to punish us all
The existing law in NSW is more than adequate to have avoided the images of Nazis outside state parliament over the weekend.

A must read Reuters investigation 👇

“In Trump 2.0, MAGA-aligned influencers and media emerge as the new mainstream.”

This Reuters investigation says the shift comes as a growing number of social platforms and traditional outlets accommodate Trump.

My unpopular opinion? Tiny homes are expensive trailer homes which avoids the problem. They are a bandage solution to a systemic problem - our collective failure to build solid, high-density, multi-story homes.
Are tiny homes the solution to the housing crisis?
Public interest in tiny homes has skyrocketed in recent years, but experts warn they come with their own problems.

My home NBN connection is really unreliable - I’ve had to drive to where I can get mobile phone coverage to use my mobile as a hot spot for my computer.

Some of the audio files I have to process online are BIG. I hate to think what my data cost will be.

#Optus and the #NBN are so hopeless.

A Mudgee winery employing 65 people has become the largest of its kind in Oz to go completely off the grid.

Battery storage and 400 solar panels power the cellar door, winery, machinery, processing plant and restaurant.

A net zero case study for the Nats??

Had a brain scan today. It definitely shows off my eyes in a very flattering way 😂

10 days ago, I slipped and really banged my head in a hotel bathroom. I’m still getting headaches - but at least I can finally prove that I have a brain!!

So the Nationals have scrapped their Net Zero target.

I’m not politically aligned, but in return, Australia should have a target of zero seats for the Nationals by 2050.

No media about this?

NSW Police investigated 14 incidents of alleged antisemitic attacks and found NO evidence of Iran or any other foreign agent acting in relation to the 14 alleged antisemitic incidences

The Minns and Albanese govts both exploited this falsehood to further their own agendas

Excuse me? So the company the President currently owns is teaming up with a cryptocurrency company to create a prediction market, which will take bets... on things the President himself has quite a lot of control over?

Gosh, I'm sure nothing bad will happen.

This is utter gaslighting and lies by Israel.

How can Israel say that it is upholding a ceasefire when its military has just killed 104 people?

It’s despicable nonsense.

Trump says Gaza ceasefire holds, Israel has right to hit back if attacked
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that a U.S.-backed ceasefire in Gaza was not at risk after local authorities reported that 26 people had been killed in Israeli strikes, as Israel and Hamas traded accusations of blame for the violence.
