The end. Well, it’s as good a place to start as anywhere isn’t it? A wet Wednesday night in April at the Riverstage for the Brisbane show of Midnight Oils final tour probably isn’t the ideal send off everyone dreamed of, but that’s La Niña for you. In the UK, Midnight Oil occupy that strange […]

I was always planning to get tickets to see Lorde on this current tour.  The tipping point that got me into acting on my intentions was seeing the broadcast of her amazing Glastonbury set online.  For this festival appearance she performed in front of a shipping container-sized glass box that filled with dry ice and […]

The Year I Officially Became The Bride of Jesus: How and Why I Cried My Eyes Out Watching Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

By Darcy Rhodes After not cutting my hair for a year, I started hearing that I looked like Nick Cave. These comparisons only became more frequent when I began singing in a baritone.

Tame Impala @ Riverstage, 21.11.2015
