Check it out - a trip down memory lane. Some of my most favourite music videos from the 1990s. Featuring bad hair, bad fashion, crazy dance moves and tragic transitions!
The following have stayed with me over the last 10 years +; perhaps have been the most influential music in my early years… perhaps that’s not something I should own up to. Make up your own mind… Watching them now, still gives me happy feet and good vibes.
Youtube is brilliant, so much history and knowledge retained in one place! Thank you interweb and broadband. <3

Yep. That’s right. Only in America. With your judge: Stan Lee.
I’ve been trying my hand at being a tourist in my own city, before I leave for overseas in a few months.
So far, I’ve (slept through Australia Day), been on ferry trips to Manly (with random yank sax players), beaching, doing rounds of The Rocks, Quay, MCA, Big Dayed Out, gone to the zoo (zoo, zoo, how about you, you, you?), and soon hopefully Pyrmont. I’m also armed with a new digital SLR (co-owned) with two noice lenses (which still need a major workout), so expect to see lots of photos!
Some friends and I went to Taranga Zoo yesterday and then scoffed ourselves silly with pots of mussels from The Belgian Beer Cafe. Glorious. I think the Chimps were my favourite - their sooo cute! There were two playful young ones, who were inseparable - complete with arms around each other the whole time! (Awwww). Also, saw a Leopard or Cat thing catch and eat live fish in it’s enclosure! Missed the seal show due to timetable confusion and too many prams being in the way. Saw elephants pee and poo at the same time (gross). The reptiles were also cool (I like pyhtons and bully turtles).
In comparison, Big Day Out was nowhere near as good. My highlights were Bob Evans, Red Riders, The Killers (during whom I ended up in some random corporate box…), I missed Muse and couldn’t see anything for The Violent Femmes, and kept missing Afra the incredible Beat Box. Very dissappointed with the Peaches and Herms set (I went to the side show and it’s perhaps one of the best I’ve seen in a long while. My friend even caught the drumstick!). I wished there were more small international bands like last year.
Sydney also sucks for BDO. Melbourne is a much better environment. I believe unless the acts are amazing in the next couple of years, 2007 was my last Big Day Out.

It’s 1:30am and I’ve been comping the same image for weeks… I predicted it would only take 2 days. (HA!) I’m sick of mischa’s face now (sorry dude) - he’s my model in the picture.
Look what I madeski’s! I’m creative! I go to Art SKOOL! - YOUR A TOOL JO, a blunt one at that!
(Who said that?!?)
