The Oils....

[OzNurse69]

Listening to JJJ at the moment -- they have a tribute (2 hrs) to Midnight Oil -- I didn't even realise Peter Garrett had resigned!! Anyway, do you or do you not agree that they are the best band to ever come out of Oz??

We're gun-na

Pull his pants down

round his ankles,

shave his pubic hair;

lube him up

with old sump oil

and chain him to a chair .....etc

Well, he's only the apprentice and we're only having fun!

or the classic....

I've been everywhere, man,

I've been everywhere.

I've been to Meekatharra, Meekatharra,

Meekatharra, Meekatharra

Jail, Hospital, Meekatharra, Jail

Hospital, Meekatharra, Jail, Hospital:

I've been everywhere!

"Nige-e-e-e-e-eeeel - f*cking LEGEND!"

Kevin Bloody Wilson - we drag this CD out for *every* party and BBQ we have over here. He's so obnoxious and rude, the Welsh and the Poms don't quite know what to make of him. And yes, whenever we assemble into large-ish groups, it does turn into something vaguely resembling a bus full of Anzacs

Reminds me of a Contiki tour too!!!

After writing that last post I felt inspired to sort out my CDs. They're all in those zip-up wallets since moving overseas with 150 crystal cases would have been very expensive and unnecessary. All my Aussie music is now protectively huddled together, awaiting our annual Easter holiday by the sea in Dorset.

Saw an ad this morning for Tommy Emmanuel's tour - he's coming to Swansea! Can't wait, his 'Determination' CD got me through my final assignments along with Pink Floyd's 'Division Bell', The Doug Anthony All Stars 'Dead or Alive' and the Barenaked Ladies 'Gordon'.
