Show 31: Invasion Day Blues

What better way to start a show of all aussie tunes off than with the less popular but far more awesome band of wollongong wowsers of the mighty riff thumlock. it was so awesomely apt that we also finished the show up with more thumlock, but here i am getting ahead of myself. so i digress, we were very happy to play another taste of shpongle in reminiscence of last weekends rainbow serpent festival, which from all reports will struggle to meet the bar now set so high in future years. but a treat for all this weekend is budd's album launch at the tote. tune in next week for a full review and for some brand new tracks from their fresh release! Another tune that has been sitting in the want to play pile and this week we finally got around to it with the sand pebbles and my favourite track of theirs or pherhaps most recogniseable in honour of them being awesome aussie ( melbourne) musos, but also playing a benefit gig for RRR's the ghost thats on this monday night! check it out via www.rrr.org.au.

Too much talk of the great tunes we were playing really limited our list and so i'd expect there to be a few treats coming up next week, but thats half the fun hey, playing good shit then talking about how good it was, especially when its all home grown you feel a bit more proud and want to share this quality stuff to listeners overseas in greater detail, but i said something about digressing earlier so i should keep the ramblin a tamblin'

to go with our great lineup of aussie rock'n'roll we had our macgyver meal this week be nothing better than a half arsed barbeque segment, with ideas for cooking dead animal on a flame grill, yep that about sums that about, was pretty lacklustre in my department but saved by tristans recipe from the mighty judge of belgrave for a tasty barbeque pork in a Cider marinade and barbeque sauce, not sure if that was in there, but of course you have to have some sauce on top otherwise it just aint right.

Anyway the rock prevailed and we reached the end with a decent little swell of a list under us.

proud as always we were happy to give you a great soundtrack to an invasion day, sadly forgot to do a house of a thousand 80's VHS review this week but will continue to aussie it up next week with a review of the classic the big steal, feel free to watch in advance and join us in the banter if you can call it that.
