What's On

Robert Forster along with Grant McLennan used to be the mainstays of indie darlings" The Go Betweens" & for those of you who discovered music through the "DOFF DOFF" of dance they will be as alien to you as minor chords & middle eights....That's not to say the "Go Betweens" were world beaters, many thought they were pretentious & pedestrian whilst others considered them perfection personified....Notwithstanding the merits of his old band Robert Forster is also a music critic of some repute as I discovered whilst reading his collection "The Ten Rules Of Rock N Roll".......

Now Forster's rules are on the money, being both perceptive & thought provoking........Here's a sample........The bands with the most tattoos have the worst songs.......The second last song on every album is always the weakest.......No band does anything new on stage after the first 20 minutes.......Never follow an artist who describes their work as dark...Great bands don't have members doing solo albums......

All well & good for the archaic rock no roll brigade but music has advanced beyond MUSICAL instruments so being a devotee of dance music I took it upon myself to compile "The Ten Rules Of Dance Music"......Here's a sample..........A DJ plays someone’s else’s songs, a producer samples them then calls them his own.....NO Dj ever does anything new during their set after the first beat......The Dj who concentrates on image over music has a greater chance of stardom......Dance music is substantially less compelling without drugs.......Every song on a DJ's album is of consistent quality with each song so similar it seamlessly mixes with the next....DJ'ing is the most common occupation for males who have neither a trade nor education.........And

.........AKika was censored at that point lest she continues to maul the hand that feeds her....Geisha wishes to categorically state that the views expressed by young Akika are not representative of the views of Geisha Bar or its servants......Geisha is well aware that The Chemical Brothers & their ilk ARE the lyrical voice of a generation right on par with the likes of Bob Dylan, the Beat Poets & renaissance artists who were named after Ninja turtles.
