Exactly What Was Needed

Tonight Bobbie and I took some time out from our lives and enjoyed ourselves at the Illawarra Yacht Club. This venue is not a usual haunt for us and it was the fact that The Rock Monsters were playing that drew us to the club. The Rock Monsters is a cover band that is close to the family as Glen Whittorn is a member.

The club should be ashamed of itself that the number of patrons was less than 20. The lack of promotion has to be a cause here, certainly the strength of the Jack Daniels and Coke would not keep people away. The glass is 80% JD, 15% ice and 5% Coke!

Thanks to The Rock Monsters for providing some truly entertaining music, it has allowed Bobbie and I some chillaxin’ time together, which was long overdue. Also, those that were there seemed entertained and happy. I look forward to the next Illawarra gig of The Rock Monsters, hopefully the venue will offer some promotion and a larger crowd will be in attendance.

A Blast From The Past

Well I have once again been bereft of ideas for a post. I have though been performing the rather mundane task of reorganising my music folder. Whilst doing this I rediscovered this gem and thought it would be a good idea to share it with you.

The gem is Ratcats’ Don’t Go Now. These guys had two brilliant songs, the other being That Ain’t Bad, and have been around ever since. They just could not recapture the form of the 1990′s Blind Love/Tingles album.
