R.I.P Billy Thorpe, legendary Australian muso from the 60s and 70s. He was very cool. His autobiography is also one of the greatest rock'n'roll books ever.

R.I.P.
I just watched the "Mama" vid. They rock! I love and miss old rock. That must be why I'm always trying to sneak a little taste into my songs.

Heh! I love that "chicken neck" action he gets going. And as I approach my middle ages - it is definitely time I start growing me a Thorpie-style pony-tail.

Well, now that you're going to start working for he Peace Core, or whatever you said the other day, a middle age ponytail is a requirement. :wink:

Heh! - no, not Peace Corps - I have been a volunteer overseas aid worker in the past - but nowdays I am "a higly respected and highly paid consultant" ( :roll: ) - but I still want a middle age ponytail though.

So the Peace Core isn't the center for peace? It's Peace Corp, the corporation of peace? Some humanitarian I am, huh. I bet Billy Thorpe knew that.

well - it's actually "Corps" - as in a military unit or "body" - typical Seppo wankary - if you ask me, they are all CIA spies anyway...
