It's a wrap on the Hottest 100, Radio Birdman have announced a 50th anniversary tour, Brisbane trio Budd return and a fresh playlist featuring seventies Antipodean disco, funk and soul sounds.
Back for another round of Counter Culture. This weekend there is a Sesame Girl instore, Richie Weed and Tropical Strength are touring Melbourne. I also highlight the upcoming Witch Australian tour and give a bit of a Zamrock introduction for those not in the know, and I've also created a brand new playlist that fans of pioneering Australian guiatr music should dig. This week's cover photo is a very special shot of Tumbleweed playing the Melbourne Big Day Out thirty years ago this week that popped up on the Weedfreaks Unite page.
Introducing the Counter Culture blog. I started this as a virtual version of the conversations over the store counter where I can recommend records, tell you about shows to go to, let you know about new music and re-live stories. I was also inspired to do this from a recent guest host spot that I did for Heavy Demo 2SER FM. I'll be posting a new one weekly, each Wednesday.
