The Celibate Rifles are still doing the rounds. Played last weekend in Brisbane at a fundraiser for a local community radio station. I missed seeing them but did catch them on their previous jaunt through Bris last year.
The original The Saints played a one off at a festival called Pig City last year in celebration of 25 years of Brisbane music. Great gig! It looks like Chris and Ed got on OK and eventually Chris sang on a track from Ed's last album so all was rosy.
Though not punk one of the highlights of the day was The Riptides, a surf pop band from the late 70's. Some of you may like them if you can find them
The really big rumour is that now The Saints and Ed's wonderful The Laughing Clowns are reforming for a couple of gigs in January. That would be the same Bailey/Kuepper original The Saints mentioned above. I will be there.
