Friday at Wobbies World

Its been a busy week, so no time for real (ie. that which has not been lazily ganked from elsewhere on the web) posts. So I'm just going to point the way back to the 90's.

Yes the 90's, when flannelet shirts weren't just for for bogans, and certainly weren't available anywhere but Target or Kmart. Shit the 90's were when bogans were still a recognisable species and not just a term of abuse levelled at anyone from the suburbs. That's right the 90's, when young folk of my ilk attended gigs in the afternoon, when we drank goon and would catch public transport away from the city to see bands of this ilk.

The Meanies


I'd just like to point out that the Meanies film clip is actually in stop-motion, but transferring the video from a VHS cassette has dulled the effect somewhat, and also point you in the direction of more 'weed film clips. Finally; if you find any of these references confusing, well you're probably not from round these parts are ya? Welcome aliens!

Also please no arguments about the tags, i know, i know...

Cheers Jo!
I'm soon going to upload some old 'weed as a lot of their stuff is no longer available and I reckon it's worth letting people in on it.
