    "i'm expecting the impact of the work once completed to be positive."

    For motorists in the short term, but not for the beautiful Oakley Creek Walkway and waterfall.

    Would really love to see Devo and Elvis too - but I can't get past the winery thing. It's just, well, not appropriate.

    I'm rather looking forward to catching The Pretty Things at the Powerstation next month. It remains to be seen if they're still any good...

  • Hard News: The Advocate,

    Everything I have ever read by John Roughan has been utter tosh. Everything. Without exception.

  • Hard News: Friday Music: The Jazz,

    It’s an odd genre, Jazz. I can’t think of any other, except perhaps Hip-Hop (and perhaps Country), that invokes such extreme reactions from people; you either like it or you hate it.
    But to me it encompasses such a wide spectrum of styles and artists that I’m sure there’s something for all musical tastes somewhere.
    I recently saw Mulatu Astatke and the Black Jesus Experience at the Powerstation. Their “Ethio-Jazz” is something altogether different.

  • Hard News: The Perfect Drug, in reply to Rich of Observationz,

    The wider public perception on this debate is the biggest hurdle IMHO. It's a poisoned chalice for any politician brave enough to take an evidence-based position on the legal status of recreational drugs. Just look at what happened to Don Brash - even though his Marijuana decriminalization comment was probably the most sensible thing he's ever said.
    The way it's portrayed in the mainstream media is that ANY consumption of illicit drugs constitutes drug abuse; this is simply untrue.

    "yeah, we have to put a stop to all this horse-riding"

    Especially if the horse in on Ketamine

  • Hard News: Friday Music: This stuff works,

    Really irritating that you can't sign up without a social media account; the same with Spotify.
