    Yep, another great gone too soon. He was a superb performer, but unfortunately, in my opinion, he never again reached the heights of his Mad Dogs and Englishmen period.

    Still think that Mad Dogs and Englishmen was one of the great concert films along with Woodstock, Rust Never Sleeps and Stop Making Sense.

    Don't knock Kylie... she's made the occasional foray into the world of good music...

    were in that age group where reaL creativity was a freeforall, as it was thru rebellion, not trying to impress so there was a lot of 'outonalimb creativity' going on. people learning to express themselves & letting their inner hair down.

    I was quite straight back then & about to break free from the gravity of conservative apron strings, & straight laces neatly tied. needless to say i was into pop; & r&b & blues without knowing what those terms were.

    those early days are hard to top for any successful band. just a great vocalist & artist/performer.

    too choirboy back then was moi. missed Sunbury & those fun times. my mates went.

    I would love an opportunity to do those outdoor festivals now, but that creativity has passed by us... maybe oneday it will be reborn.

    the freedom of the '70's, the innocence & the mischevious. howling down the coast at near 100mph with de-restriction signs aplenty; overtaking school buses @ 85mph with me sitting out the drivers side rear window, wind blowing thru the hair & waving to the babes.

    the freedom & the fun will be hard to match in any era from now

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
