Australia. Title of a rubbish Manic Street Preachers song, birthplace of Kylie, supplier of bar staff. Today is the day that the Aussies celebrate being Australian or something, and needless to say drink a lot. Here you will find no criminal jokes, instead we wish to celebrate all that is good about Australia. So, Shane Warne and Nick Cave it is then. And as Warney doesn’t sing, here’s the suited man with ‘Get Ready For Love.’

Bloody oath mate , bloody oath.
You can’t argue with Nick Cave.
Australians eh? Imagine they were even half as amazing as they thought they were?
And drinks raised for the passing of the greatest Australian guitarist Rowland S Howard who passed recently. He gave me so much pleasure playing that fractured feedback sound, with a cig dangling from his gob in The Birthday Party. And had a great haircut that we can only dream about these days.
Actually loads of good Oz bands over the years – The Triffids, Go-Betweens, The mighty Saints, Laughing Clowns, Boys Next Door, The Moodists, the fabulously named Hard-Ons and Radio Birdman to name several.
And of course AC/DC, although they’re really Glaswegian as you know……..
Yes, there’s lot to recommend about Australia. Actually, no, there isn’t, and I’m glad it’s so fucking far away.
Up Yeez !
