Weez get in early and nominate from both sides of the pond. Max Merritt and the Meteors will warm up the half time crowd with their classic summation of my season, 'Driftin' Away From You'. They will be followed by headliners Split Enz who will perform a special refrain for the Warriors coach featuring such gems as, 'My Mistake', 'Give It A Whirl', 'I Hope I Never', 'Another Great Divide', 'Six Months In A Leaky Boat' and finishing with, 'Nobody Takes Me Seriously'. /Portals/0/User%20Images/Max%20Merrit.jpg/Portals/0/User%20Images/Split%20enz.jpg
A repost from the Waikiks page - The incomparable Paul Kelly has agreed to join the Incorrigibles travelling party for their away game at Foul Bay. The team will be kicking back and providing background vocals from the rear section of the bus. The recovery group (which will probably be joined by Nat Fyfe after his ridiculous citing) have a buzz going with their harmonies on 'Making Gravy' a real treat. A bit of disharmony though with the Swannies' contingent unhappy about 'From St Kilda to Kings Cross' being greeted so warmly by the Vics. Rehearsals of 'Leaps and Bounds' are proving to be very popular with the locals at the bowling club. However, some say chels's relish for the chorus and his improvised background vocals on 'Every Fucking City' is down right embarrassing. The great man is having to suppress a wry smile at how his lyrics have been interpreted but he is apparently impressed with the volume and gusto our coach is providing. Strangely, there does not seem to be a lot of interest(actually none)from the entrepreneurial sector at booking Paul Kelly and the Waikicks.
This weeks game against Mt Beauty is being beamed live into the Marble Bar members auditorium. The live act hired to mark Muso's Round @ Marble Bar is Australian Crawl.. Mullets at 30 paces /Portals/0/Users/017/57/3857/user1367_1154524648.jpg
Rather than just a Saturday afternoon footy game, the upcoming proceedings will be known as 'Weekend at Powlett'. Slim Dusty will be exhumed to provide the weekend's entertainment. Despite over 10 years 6 feet under, it is believed his voice is still golden. A crowd of at least 35 can expect to hear classics such as 'On the Wallaby', 'Ringer from the top end' and 'Looking Forward, Looking Back'.

Yanno Len, when I was 14yo the government, to the eternal gratitude of my mates and I, allowed topless bathing at Sandringham beach. I think that might have been us in the water for the Aussie Crawl album cover. She looks familiar.

I think that might have been us in the water for the Aussie Crawl album cover. She looks familiar. And tasty... I was 16 when the album came out, I wore out 2 cassettes, realised the error of my ways, bought a record, and just re-taped it from then on
Oh noooooo.............not Meatloaf. A little obscure Sydney pub band is this weeks Hoppers entertainment: http://youtu.be/0VWkgzuXWFg http://youtu.be/GarvTZiESLU
Gariwerd and Charlie's Opening are having a rave after party to continue on the tradition of Angus Monfries getting lasered in season one. This year the lineup is massive: /Portals/0/Users/168/92/7592/ultra_music_festival_2013-wallpaper-480x272.jpg' style='width: 480px; height: 272px;
/Portals/0/User%20Images/stonefield-1.jpg The Dirigibles are welcoming home town band Stonefield back to the Guim as part of the musical festivities of Round 3. A hippy-influenced festival of music (and associated other fun things) is expected to draw in the crowds. Ivan Maric's hair has been specially straightened for the occasion (with a thin headband also in place), while a sea of daisies has been planted in the outer for the fans to pick, sit amongst or put in their hair. Meanwhile, Maric's co-captain Brent Harvey was last seen shaking his head and muttering something about being too old for all this tree-hugging hippy crap.

With our reserves side the 'Western Districts Saints' playing in the curtain raiser, it seemed fitting for our A&R division to have a quiet chat to Chris Bailey and Ed Kuepper. Thankfully the founding members of 'The Saints' have agreed to set aside their differences at flog out a pre-game set. In tow will be a 16 piece brass section to get the crowd jumping with the seminal 'Know Your Product'. Chris was overheard spruiking: 'Those horns will be ringing in their ears for friggin hours' As hinted in the blog, Spiderbait will be alongafterThe Saintsto smash out the Lefties club song 'Footy' plus a couple of other little ditties from their halcyon Shashava days. As a fitting end the main game, Warren Ellis and The Dirty Three will churn out a reprise version of 'Everything's F@#ked' as the losing side trudge off the ground. This musical cavalcade, across god-knows how many decades, will be a feast for the senses not to be missed. Tickets available thro Goontix.
Cradle Mountain are delighted that Aussie Rockers You Am I have agreed to perform at the home match against Iron Knob this weekend. Singer and guitarist Tim Rogers is a passionate supporter of North Melbourne in the AFLand has appeared in several of the AFL's ads.Whilst the set list is still to be finalised You Am I will be performing 'Who put the Devil in you' from their 2002 Album Deliverance as the Cradle Mountain Devils run onto the field.
