So sad - a great artist. We have lost a group of amazing people in 2014.

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.

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 ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne
