I meant what I said. 80s music was wank and should not be played today. Wipe all evidence that the 80s ever existed as far as I'm concerned. 33885[/snapback] How old are you 12? Melbourne was actually the centre of some of the best music ever produced in the 80s. Places like the corner hotel, the venue, the palace, the espie, the punt club and host more were venues where bands like blue ruin, the olympic sideburns, the wreckery, nick cave, space juniors, the bo weevils, the stems, the scientists, hoodu gurus, lime spiders. And yet you can only think of faith no more and the pixies???

Like saying Schwarzenegger is American. 33687[/snapback] Is he registered as an American citizen then?? 33696[/snapback] Yes, but he isn't American if you get my drift. 33704[/snapback] Point of clarification: inorder to be elected to a Government position one must be a citizen of the United States, Governor Schwarzenegger anyone? Steve if it's a daytime wedding just wear your sunnies or if that's not an option just go out tonight in St Kilda and pick a fight with a saints supporter after the match. At least they won't be able to see the redness until the swelling goes down.

Why do people put so much shite on 80s music? The mainstream was crap but look deeper and it was amazing: Killing Joke Jesus and Mary Chain The Cocteau Twins Actually most of 4ad. The Pixies The Cure The Smiths KMFDM Depeche Mode Siouxsie and the Banshees New Order The Style Council Sisters of Mercy The Mission NIck Cave and the Badseeds (Also the Birthday Party) The Scientists Echo and the bunnymen Violent Femmes The Cramps Talking Heads The Stems Dexys Midnight Runners Dead Kennedys Black Flack Ministry New Model Army Caberet Voltaire Severed Heads Talk Talk The Blue Nile It's Immaterial Blue Ruin The Hard Ons The New Christs The Sugarcubes The Smitherines Husker Du Tad Big Black Grand Master Flash The list goes on and on and yet all anyone chooses to remember from that period musically is crap like black box and the fucking happy shite house smilie music or American crap like Whitney Houston. If you take the time and effort and search through things like the new wave and new rommantic bands you can even find some musical jems, it wasn't all shite. We should be thankful for 80s music as it started a revolution with the rise of independant record labels. There is no way in hell that Geffen or Sony would of released stuff like Nirvana or Pearl Jam if it hadn't been for 4ad, sub-pop or even CBS's success with Fiction records. The belief 80s music was a nonentity is just a myth, explore and find the truth.

Luke, forget Noosa it's like a middle aged, upper middle class, over tanned retirement village. Byron is great, and most of what Alex said is spot on. Regardless of what Steve says Melbourne in July is somewhere to stay away from, unless you want to hang out in the cold and grey, with antarctic winds blowing through you everyday. Sydney is ok weather wise, if it is snowing in the mountains then it gets a bit windy and cold but that usually doesn't happen until August. If you have the opportunity forget Melbourne or Sydney and get into central Australia. Ayres Rock, Alice Springs are two places that as you have travelled so far you really should try and see. There are flights out of Cairns to there. Also Broom on the west coast, is a place not to be missed but remember to cross the country by plane it is about 5 hour flight and about 4 between Cairns and Melbourne. Forget trains our rail network is hopeless and driving, well I drove Sydney to Cairns a few years ago and it was about 27 hours behind the wheel.

Quite right and if you look at his team selections in these type of matches it is obvious. Everytime he looks to play the strong arm tactics Jay-Jay Okocha is benched, when they want to play football he starts. The other thing about big Sam is you never see his players go to the media and talk about how they want to move on because they are no longer in the starting 11. Man management, can you imagine having a manager that understands the concept?

Also as is often pointed out by fear generating Government and right wing media Indonesia is the world's large Islamic population and "every single one of them" is just waiting to invade little old Australia. Sensationalists.

Don't spend a month in Brisbane mate. Get yourself up the coast to see some other parts of Queensland. 32539[/snapback] For a man who likes to take the piss out of us convicts, you know a bit to much about the place. By the way wubble, alex speaks the truth - Cairns is an amazing place and in July you can swim without the worry of being strung to death.

Radioactive boy! Couple of options: www.wotif.com.au - great for last minute accomodation bookings. or www.brisbane.com.au You are probably best with a self contained apartment, a bit cheaper and usually has cooking and washing facilities. Or you can just go to Melbourne and sleep on a park bench outside the MCG!

So what's our choice options? Moore yes? Moore no? Moore if 100% fit? What about Moore or Elliot, if they are the only two options fit enough to start? It will be Boom and Bambi, with Baba and Carr, fuck we are lucky Bellars is injured!

The Gurus are still around. They "retired" a couple of years ago but get together for the occassional show. As part of their retirement they formed another band, same members but different sound called the Persian Carpets. I think they had a LP release. There were two other get their kit off actresses in Sirens, Kate Fischer the psycho (as mentioned earlier) and the far more attractive Portia de Rossi (although she doesn't look as attractive now). Who's bitch radioactive man? I dislike the way we are the "worlds best" (ok former) at sports 10 countries play and the one true world game we can't get our act together for. As Craig so rightly pointed out: A fact that most of the world doesn't know is it actually is the most played sport in Australia. I run a club in Sydney that is one of 3 in the suburb and yet we still have 60 teams across all ages and sexes, the local Aussie Rules club is 1 that covers about 6 suburbs and only has 6 teams, the local league club is about the same. As for the word soccer, at the moment I would guess 75% of the kids in my club know it is called football. The tide is turning, slowly. Good luck with the petition, I don't think you will have to much trouble convincing that cricket loving little toad of a PM we have, maybe they will deport me to Southampton to share with you.
