metal fatigue?

kevin dubrow, lead singer of "quiet riot" died this week. is this the end of the noize? click (here) to see the original video and you'll see why "spinal tap" had to be invented. some of the worst 80s hair you'll ever see.

graffiti addendum

there's one i forgot to include. this forlorn scribble was on the temporary fence surrounding the national gallery of victoria during its recent renovation:

"1871
1917
1968
now!"

obviously an undergraduate (sans boyfriend or girlfriend) idling away the spare hours.

i wonder how many passers by would know anything about the paris commune? and would they even care to know? this being oz, my guess is not many.

3 favourite railway station graffiti

back in the 80s, before the blight of "tagging", graffiti was seldom seen and usually of a political (the left, naturally) nature. and, consequently, more entertaining. the first two come from toorak station. the third is from windsor.

1. "ronald mcmurder, the cows aren't laughing".
2. "v.f.l. and c.i.a. conspire with tv to keep the people ignorant".
3. "the third way: neither moscow nor washington" (national front).
