Play it like you mean it

My sister's music has been described as all sorts of things by all sorts of people and the general consensus is that she slots somewhere in the folk/blues/roots sort of area.

Well I ask you this. When was the last time you saw a folk/blues/roots singer/songwriter do THIS to their guitar!?






Yes. That's blood.

Pure. Rock.

How I stopped worrying and learned to love the Polls

I am trying very hard at the moment not to be optimistic about the election. As I've mentioned previously , I'm convinced that if I get my hopes up they'll inevitably be crushed like a bug. But I've been thinking a little about this approach and while the lid is not yet off, I think those of us who have suffered under John Howard for the past 11 years have every right to enjoy ourselves at the moment. Look at it this way. If one stays pessimistic about the whole thing, convinced a disaster is on the horizon and the Libs win, well - it's not really going to make us feel any better about things. If it happens, it will be a disaster whether we prepared in advance or not. On the other hand, things have been going so delightfully of late (Exhibit A: Tony Abbott's meltdown yesterday ), that I think we should just enjoy the ride. It's a bit like jumping out of a plane - once you're out you may as well enjoy yourself because either your parachute will ope...

2 More Sleeps!!1!!!

This is actually fun. I am actually enjoying myself. However, for those of you not wishing to be complacent, take a walk down memory lane courtesy of Antony Green and the ABC Election website. Nothing will make you pull your head in faster than watching "highlights" from the last four election campaigns. In other news, Jackie Kelly, are you for serious ?! CHRIS UHLMANN : Was your husband involved in the distribution of this pamphlet? JACKIE KELLY : Well, I've read the alleged pamphlet and when I first read it I had to laugh because I think everyone who reads it has their first instinct is to laugh, pretty much everyone who's read chuckles in terms of the parody it does make of various things that have happened during the campaign. So my view is that it's a bit of Chaser-style prank that an ALP goon squad, which I understand was is led by some unionists, have chased down and hunted down and tried to intimidate and I understand there was even a fight, so yes, I t...

Another US school shooting

Yet another shooting spree in a US school. "A gunman in the US shot five people today, killing two of them, in a rampage through two houses and an elementary school in Vermont that ended when he wounded himself, police said." This is why, according to the NRA , private citizens need to be armed. Between 2 February 1996 and 8 November 2005 alone, there were 40 instances of school shootings in the US. It appears to be a serious problem. When these shootings occur, how often do we hear that the siege ends when the perpetrator turns the gun on them self, or that they were disarmed by police? And how often do you hear of private citizens coming to the rescue with their NRA approved weapons? Of course I don't have these figures at my disposal, but I feel fairly confident in arguing that far more damage has been done by those who own firearms and choose to go on rampages through schools than lives saved by self-appointed civilian militias. Surely the only way forward is to...
