This just occurred to me...

If your great ideas come when you're sitting on the toilet, then you're likely "talking shit" most of the time.

Back to my paper (I'll try to stay away from the bathroom).

• Life on campus has proven to be good....no....it's been great. Next sem by the beach with Nate and the Culinary Critic.
• That is all.

hear the flowers

The band above is Soundgarden. The broke up a few years ago. They were a "great band."
But they did not achieve legendary status. They may have gotten there someday.

The Beatles, AC/DC, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, U2, Pink Floyd, The Eagles (even though I don't like to admit it), have reached legendary status.

Bands like Metallica, Guns n' Roses, Pearl Jam, Dire Straits, Aerosmith, Coldplay, Dave Matthews Band, are all great.

Pearl Jam, Coldplay, Dave Matthews have an opportunity to become legendary...

Metallica was the biggest band in the world for a few years and are very close...but there latest efforts have been lackluster. Sure it may argued that The Stones and AC/DC have had lackluster efforts as of late...however, legend status is not always determined by what you have done lately, but rather if you've experienced a greatness no other band has had. AC/DC has a volume of work that is great...plus they have the 2nd best album in music history. Pink Floyd has Dark Side of the Moon - which is the longest standing album on Billboard's top 200 in music history. The Beatles have...well...they've got a drummer who is as well known as any musician on the planet, so that cements them in a nutshell.

Coldplay is amassing a collection of albums that will no doubt be classified legendary in due time. Pearl Jam is becoming a live act that is unparalleled. Plus they've got Eddie Vedder, who has one of the best voices going and a Jim Morrison mystic about him.

Guns N Roses were great. But their last few albums were crap. Plus, they broke up. Much like a blue chip baseball prospect that wins the rookie of the year award. Great year, followed by a decent sophmore campaign, but no longevity (not the best analogy).

that's all that's on my mind now...

good advice

Here's one piece of advice I offer today - wherever you live, always have access to bungee cords.

They're great for lots of things - but not good for hanging yourself when you realize your assignment aint going so well. All they do when you try that is bounce you back up.

blah blah blah

This is the farewell week of the blog....(probably not though, nothing I've ever really said on this blog has continued or come to fruition - expect helping to change the library hours).

Anyway, all I'm gonna post (again, probably a fib) is short messages.

Here's a decent picture.

back to work.

By the way....living on campus now.

anybody can come by for a refreshment, some instant coffee, or some sticky date pudding.

I also have some nuts, instant soup (which is shit), one english muffin, two slices of raisin bread, some walnuts, a half box of Ritz crackers, some peanut butter, and some packets of jam I took from the brasserie (I sneak them into my pocket when Darrell aint looking).

Last Hurrah

Coming soon. Something big.

Actually, only I think it's big...to be honest, it's not big at all. But it's kinda funny.

TNL

If you haven't seen this (click here), you probably need to. How you get people to do that, I don't know...

Tuesday night live is a great show hosted by George Raptis and Joe Corrigan. It's a controversial show which I've had the pleasure of being on many times with Jim Payne.

Check out the rest of the website above to see more great stuff.

Until the end of the World

• Huge day yesterday. Started off with breakfast at the Brasserie with the Minutes Critic - Mr James Payne, as well as a swim in the Bond Pool.
• Next to Robina Tavern to put a few wagers on the Melbourne Cup.
• Back to Don's Tavern to watch the big race. Great idea by Laz Christou to hold the weekly barbecue at Dons on a Tuesday. Clearly council is on the right track with their ideas.
  
• My money was on Yeats. My money went down the drain - all $11. Delta Blues brought it home. To hell with the horses.
• Ari Comert and I have decided to buy some horses and train them. Ari will be the jockey. We hope to run in the Cup next year. The horses name will be "Cigarette."
  
• Then off to the biggest event of the day...to Brisbane via the Air Train to see one of the biggest musical acts in the history of music - U2
  
• Taking the trip was Sean, James, Con, and the three Norwegians Jon, Vibeke and Anne-Marie. We met good friend Jeff Hodge downtown at backpackers bar for a quick drink and a bite. Reminder, don't order $9 steak from backpackers pub.
  
• Off to the concert next. Free transport provided by transport Queensland.
• Apparently lining up for General Admission takes a long time...but worth the wait.
• We missed multi Grammy winning artist Kanye West. Who cares...
• A few quick beers were had, the Norwegians were quickly lost, and Con and James found their way to the middle of the floor. An interesting text during the concert came from Jon, who apparently made it 10 metres from the stage in the VIP area.
• Another highlight was after the concert when Con (the maniac that he is) grabbing a man and telling him that he should have been on stage. I shook my head and wondered what kind of mischief my friend was getting up to now. Well, turns out that that man that Con grabbed was Bernard Fanning of the rock band Powderfinger. Con tells me that he just wanted to wish him well.
  
• Leaving the concert involved a 5 kilometre walk to the train station, followed by an hour train ride back home.
  
• Anyway, all favourites were played. My personal favs included Zoo Station, Until the end of the World, Pride (in the name of love), Where the Streets have no name.
• Two encores were great. Here's the whole set-list.
  

City of Blinding Lights
Vertigo
Elevation
Until the End of the World
New Year's Day
Beautiful Day
Yahweh
Walk On
Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own
Love and Peace or Else
Sunday Bloody Sunday

The Cup

I just woke up. I had a very important dream. I just dreamt that I was jockey and I won the Melbourne Cup on a horse named "Pigeon."

This could be very important information for any and all wagers put down today. I know it's early, but I feel my calling is not to the U2 concert, but to Flemington Park to ride in what may be the most famous race in Australian horse racing history. I can see the headlines now, Unknown 6 foot jockey wins the Cup on a show pony named Pigeon.

When a good friend of mine took me to the Melbourne museum, I saw that the most famous Australian horse (before today that is) named Phar Lap. He was stuffed in one of the exhibits. If I go ahead to win the race today, I want to be stuffed.

goodbye

Live Wire

I've kinda admitted in the past that I partake in this AC/DC message board. Not that I comment very often at all, but I do read everything people say. Basically it involves crazy fans talking about their favourite band and mine.

But it's more than just a discussion on their favourite album, or why Bon Scott is better than Brian Johnson (or vice versa). They actually talk about crazy things. In fact, some crazed fan showed up at Angus' house in the Netherlands the other day to take a picture of the house and just happened to see Angus and also take a picture of him.

Anyway, for the last long while people just bitch and complain about the lack of a new album.

This is what one of them had to say...I thought it was funny - you may not.

The guys username is Calif Coooool .


OK, now I am pissed again. Look at Cliff (bassist), dude is obviously older but he still looks like a rocker. Look at Malcolm (Angus' brother and fellow guitarist in the band) for hell's sake....sure he is gotten a bit ugly but the dude still looks like he is ready to rock. You can be ugly and still rock ....look at alice cooper for hells sake.

I just saw Roger Waters a couple weeks ago....front row of course. Dude is 64 or something and went grey but it doesnt matter ....still rocks and looks the part.

Then we have this short motherfucker (Angus) who used to to look the very essence of rock and now he goes totally bald, takes pictures with any faggotty looking euro douchebag that knocks on his door that sits in his house and thinks about drinking tea and what he will have for lunchypoo. WHAT THE HOLY HELL IS THIS BULLSHIT!?!

If you look up the definition of rock no roll in a dictionary, you see a picture of angus back when he was in this band called AC/DC. Now, the little motherfucker looks like he is getting ready for a nursing home.

ANGUS!!! THIS IS CALIFORNIA COOL TALKING!!! GET YOUR BALD MOTHERFUCKING ASS TO A MOTHERFUCKING HAIR-TRANSPLANT DOCTOR!!! THEN, GET YOUR MOTHERFUCKING LAZY ASS TO THE STUDIO WITH YOUR MOTHERFUCKING BROTHER WHO STILL LOOKS LIKE HE CAN ROCK AND PUT OUT SOME MOTHERFUCKING ROCKNROLL SONGS LIKE YOU USED TO DO!!! ITS BEEN 7 YEARS YOU ASSHOLE!!! SEVEN FUCKING YEARS!!! THANKS FOR KEEPING IN TOUCH YOU INCONSIDERATE ASSHOLE!!! THANKS FOR KEEPING YOUR FANS UP TO DATE YOU ME-ONLY-THINKING FUCKWAD!!! SORRY I AM NOT SUCH A EURO-DICK THAT I DONT COME KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR LIKE A STAR-STRUCK LITTLE BITCH BUT I HAVE A LIFE UNLIKE THOSE TYPES OF ASSHOLES!!! THANKS AGAIN FOR BEING SO CONSIDERATE AND KEEPING IN TOUCH YOU LITTLE BALD BASTARD!!!! NOW GET YOUR LAZY BALD ASS BACK IN GEAR!!! ANOTHER S.U.L. (Stiff Upper Lip - their last album) WOULD DO ME FINE!!! ANOTHER BACK IN BLACK WOULD BE EVEN BETTER!!! THANKS FOR CARING....DICKWAD!!!!!!

A few Halloween Goodies...more to come...if I feel like it.

not much

Rumour has it that council has picked the theme for next semester's pub crawl - and it's not my genius idea of one team AC and the other team DC. The leaders would have been the Lightning bolts. The new idea has apparently come from Treasurer Julien Du Vergier. Proving that he's more than just a money-man, people in council circles are quietly calling Du Vergier the "Creative Force" behind many of council's ideas.

Does anyone remember this fall? I was lucky enough (or unlucky) to ski the course. It takes Herman Maier 2 1/2 minutes to ski the course...it took me 30 minutes.

The council minutes were late this week. James Payne, the minutes critic, was wondering if council had something to hide. We're awaiting his synopsis of this weeks minutes.

Halloween party was a job well done. A great time. Pictures coming soon.
