OT: Dead hard rockers week

[Eion]

Blade Runner. One of the all-time greatest movies. Bombed at the box office in 1982 (I remember going to see it - 14-years old). Still good to watch.

(2 of the best movies of all time we’re in 1982 IMO. Blade Runner & The Thing). The Hitcher was good in 1986. Don’t know how it stacks up these days.

Oh man The Thing. Stumbled on that movie on TV as a kid knowing nothing about it and was completely blown away. Kurt Russell is an all time great.

The thing FMD, up there with Alien.

 

[Quigs]

I remember the original Thing fillum with James Arness as the alien being.

 

[Stake Removed]

Former NWA world champ Harley Race dead, probably the last legit tough guy to be champ, i remember in the 70's when our own Ron Miller defeated him on world championship wrestling, when channel 9, would put it on midday on weekend

 

[Quigs]

he won't be happy then.

 

[Defer to the coifed]

Ron Miller ... Was he a former Tigers Player ? Or am I thinking of the Wrong Ron.?

Damien Lovelock, lead singer of Celibate Rifles.
Cancer, we kept it quiet for Damo's sake.

RIP mate

I organised that gig for them. Motor bike nuts yeah? I was working on a site with your mates at the time, told them I'll get them. Kent lived with me at the time. Your mates were stoked and disbelievable at the same time that I did it so easily.
I was supposed to play too but we ended up with a bigger gig that night.

Which gig mate?
I organised all their shows last year and played with them

He was doing the gig down brass monkey with group of musos - 60’s theme from memory, we just rocked up and it was on.
Saw him a few times over the years, even once down woolooware golf club, go figure.
Like I said, all folks out there should rise a leaf from his book. Just enjoy life, be yourself and chill.
Vale

 

[bad boy bubby]

Damo always had perfect timing.
This weeks theme gets a run

They have something to do with horses.
I’ll see him tomorrow .
I love that story....especially the April sun in Cuba cover.
Ha


The theme music to the sharkcast is from the band Rocks.
I used to work with Pete who plays bass.

The first rifles gig I saw was with him.
Paddington town hall with the hard ons.

Kent is playing tonight with Jim Moginie

Yeah he did a few down the Monkey. Last one I saw there he did the Bowie/Iggy show. I was with Newms that night.
The Woolooware Golf club gig was a "New York, New York" night. Doing all the old New York bands from CBGB's.
Ramones, Television,Talking Heads etc.....
A mate of mine went up and saw him last week, said he was in fine spirits. When he rocked up Brad Fittler was in his front yard having a chat with him.
"Gidday Mick...... this is Brad" in his distinct voice

No wukkas. They may have been chippies/builders I think. We were working at The Blood Bank in Clarence st at the time.
April Sun was one of their Harbour Cruise faves. We nearly got them to play Shippin Steele...... nearly!!! Damo was up for it.
In the meantime from a Harbour Cruise, you'll know this one mate haha
