Fortitude Valley Walk Of Fame
The Brisbane City Council has finally realised what a dearth of musical talent this city has and is now planning to create a 'Walk Of Fame' consisting of ten Brisbane artists. In light of Grant McLennan's passing away last year they've decided to name the Go-Betweens as the first inductee. The public, however, has the final say on the nine other artists joining them. Head over to the website to pick your favourite Brisbane artist from a shortlist of 25. Personally I'm hoping for the other nine artists to include Custard, Kev Carmody, Regurgitator, Resin Dogs, Screamfeeder, The Saints, and the Ups and Downs. More likely, however, it will include Savage Garden, the Bee Gees, Powderfinger, and Keith Urban, so it's up to you to get your votes in.

if only to hear rollo's acceptance speech.
Their wouldn't be 10 artists from Brisbane worthy of being put on the walk.
We're known to have low standards here though.
I reckon the 'finger are shoo-ins unfortunately, Savage Garden and the Bee Gees deserve their spots.
You're probably right, and I won't even begrudge Powderfinger if they make it in either. But I don't think I could deal with a monument to Keith Urban on Brunswick Street.
Don't fucking try and suck-up to me Gav.
Hey guys,
This is my first time reading your blog. I heard about the review you did for Grand National and I just wanted to say that I think you made a mistake because there an awesome band.

Apologies to john butler. I said they were an awesome band....just not memorable.

This is my first time reading your blog. I heard about the statement you made about Savage Garden and I just wanted to say that I think you made a mistake because there (sic) an awesome band.
Hey aren't you that fat guy from Tregbo?

who said anything about john butler in general? i think i can quite safely guarantee that neither i nor gav will EVER write about john butler on here. for a start he's not from brisbane, but moreso is that he's just shit.
No he's not he's awesome. Me and my doobie chuffin mates from Byron reckon he's the shit
