Hard News: A fiction of unalloyed darkness, in reply to Russell Brown,
That was in 2006, but the lives of workers in the US meat processing industry remain very, very grim. People also get poisoned and die in explosions.
Simple,when I'm in America I eat no ipads and use no meat.

Cracker: Dinner and a Show (Everybody’s…,
Not the best I've seen them maybe, but actually I quite liked them. That a band can write Ceremony and then several years later write True Faith and pull them both off live ..even at the outer reaches of middle age, is kind of cool.

Hard News: A right old Barney,
I saw the 2002 show at bdo . I recall a fairly sparsely populated audience at ground level - when Blue Monday happened the audience on the outskirts got sucked toward the throng at the front. Was cool. I also saw the Mainstreet 1982 gig, had just turned 18 .. was so awesome. If they can get the sound rightish it should be a fun show at v arena - even less Hooky. I love that they're so electronic - in their own way they seemed ahead of the pack.

Hard News: Getting to the bottom of…, in reply to Russell Brown,
Loads of people, and understandably so. Not every job at Foxconn is on an assembly line.
And those that are on the assembly line? They sound particularly delightful. I dunno, the things that we seem to find acceptable from a far. Hmmm.

Gee Foxconn employees - a job there, or dire poverty. Awesome choice. Bleak. Who the fk would want a job in that dump. As to being a meat processing wker in the USA ...sad very very sad.Clearly the country that is, with haste, giving up on it's poor.

Kasabian really really suck. Bye bye bdo - we'll miss ya. I remember seeing a real blinder little set from David Kilgour at the very first bdo ...it was just after his debut solo album. Breeders were truly awesome at that bdo too. I like that Laneways has gone even more left field in terms of it's lineup --- the kids are taking control.
