A review of Charli XCX live in Brisbane written perhaps not the way you’d expect
By Everett True/Kat Elizabeth Donald I took one of my students from Sex Drugs Rock’N’Roll down to see Charlie XCX and Tkay Maidza at The Met last week, on the stipulation she write something about it for Collapse Board. So she did. I really liked Tkay because she was just so young and had so […]

Music for the British General Election of 2015
A short list, this time around. There’s only one song that cuts across all party lines. Win, lose or draw, you can party till dawn with this one on election night. An old one next, but it still sounds relevant Written about an Australian politician, but you can always change a few words… Just about […]
