Wow ! That was really something . Lindsey at his best .

I listened to the original for the first time in a while, it really pales in significance compared to his solo acoustic performance.

Another one from Toto "Hold the Line" followed by Phil Collins and Philip Bailey with "Easy Lover"

Those were awesome. Missed them both off my mixes, had to add them in. Any other ideas for 80's classics?

Any other ideas for 80's classics?

Well here's another Fleetwood Mac song from the late 80's . A lot of people liked their early stuff around the late 60's , early 70's but "Rumours" remains a standout album . Let me have a think on the 80's rock . So much of it really . Maybe we can have an 80's theme for a few weeks ? Or longer ! Others can post their fav's .

Christine McVie remains one of my favourite female rock artists

Sounds great. I'm in. When do we start?


No time like the present !

Haha, great stuff.

I'll start off with one of my favourite bands. Their live album The Cure Show I'd rate as one of the best live albums going around.

Some great stuff from 'The Cure' there JJ . This track from the 'Doobies' is not quite the 80's but has an 80's feel

Here's another of my favourite bands.

Mark Knopfler would have to go down as one of the most talented songwriters going around, he not too shabby on guitar either.

For any other Dire Straits/ Mark Knopfler fans out there, if you haven't heard his solo album Kill To Get Crimson then do yourself a favour, it's brilliant.

Nascent 1.8

The very talented Mr Townsend, a former protege of Steve Vai, shows off his amazing vocals on this track (3.20 - 4.15). Not his best song, but probably one of the most accessabile from his solo work.

Aussie band The Butterfly Effect. Posting purely because I'm catching their final tour in a couple weeks before Clint leaves the band.

Those guys are all class. Awsome Aussie band.

Bit of 'Rose Tattoo' , this song dedicated to the Scorpions !

I'm glad you didn't use his VFL grand final effort. Didn't exactly cover himself in glory on that day.

Time for some Enz.

Couple from Chisel

Macca's 80's 2.1

Flame Trees is one of my all time favourite songs. Love it.

I was listening to this song while driving around the other day thinking this could be the theme song for the season (I had MFCSS in full flight).

But then I realised I was just focusing solely on the chorus "That's just the way it is, some thing will never change"

So I listened to it a few more times and realised there was a much greater meaning to the song, which put things in perspective.

Again I caught myself getting enthralled with an NBA match. I could see the battle, what seemed like gladiators going head to head, the cut a thrust of combat.

But standing back I could see it for what it's worth, just a game.

Anyway, enough of my midweek musings (maybe I should have started this with "Dear Diary"?), bring on the 80's!

Been listening to a stack of new rock in the last week or so , but happy to continue the 80's theme for a few more weeks at least .

Might do a 'July Madness' of new rock . I've got about 40 or 50 hit songs from this year to post !! Some great stuff from 'Garbage' , 'You me at Six' , 'Neon Trees' , 'Chevelle' , 'Papa Roach' , 'Chili Peppers' , 'Switchfoot' , 'LostProphets' , 'Marilyn Manson' and the 'Arctic Monkeys'

Here's another from 'Simply Red'

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
