What are you saying Robbo… we got a Poseidon Adventure situation at the club, we need Gene Hackman to lead us to the bottom of the ship to get us out. :D

I’m thinking the coaches and players need to face the fire engulfing the club, take the leap and push through together..


Two points I’d like to make.

Harry Nilsson excellent choice. This LP also produced Without You and Coconut. I remember as a teenager at school they’d put the radio on the PA and Jump into the Fire was a favourite because of the manic drumbeat, wicked bass and that guitar motif that keeps repeating.

As for The Poseidon Adventure. It’s not about the footy club. It’s about the “supporters”. I’d love to send a number of them on the SS Poseidon and hope Gene Hackman missed the voyage.

Recently caught the Jane's Addiction/Smashing Pumpkins double header at the slightly ridiculous Kryal Castle.

Perry sounded great (once they sorted his vocals) and pranced like a hyper sexualised peacock, Stephen Perkins played like his life depended in it, and Josh Klinghoffer (filling in for Dave Navarro) all but stole the show. Hard act to follow.

The Pumpkins sounded equally great, Billy powered through despite a cold, James Iha was oddly deferential to a back up guitarist, Jimmy played a Neil Peart- esque size drum kit, and they were generous with the hits. Odd banter, a phoned in cover of ' Under The Milky Way' and a weird wrestling bit stilted the set...but there was more than enough good to cover the odd.
