Posting Youtube Clips Is My Rage
I know I use the youtubes a little bit too much. Growing up as a kid in Australia though it has always been a dream (along with thousands of others I suspect) to one day programme Rage. Rage is an all night Music show on the ABC on Friday and Saturday nights. On Saturday night they have a guest programmer for the first 3 or 4 hours. Name any Australian band/artist or any international touring artist and chances are they've probably been a guest. The most memorable for me being Steve Kilbey in like 1992, Johnathon Donahue in the the late 90s, Michael Hutchence had a go and more recently filmmaker Richard Lowenstein was a fabulous guest. I've missed hundreds and probably some of them were probably my favourite bands/artists. Anyway I'm just playing Rage fantasy guest host a lot of the time.
*NOTE: Probably best not to play The Birthday Party's Nick The Stripper or Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division as they get played every week. There's probably plenty of guest bits up on Youtube.

Rock Da House
Rock Da House
Beatmasters & Cookie Crew
1987
Goin' Back To Cali
LL Cool J
ICE-T
COLORS
Back in the day all these tracks were exciting, you didn't know what was going to happen next! It was fresh. How excitement! This wasn't indie rock or hair-metal. They all still sound great today. I can't believe that Beatmasters & Cookie Crew track still stands up. These tunes remind me of ABC TV's Saturday morning show The Factory.
