Zimbabwe’s Song… it needs your voice.

September 4, 2008

Aah… why not? I’ve already turned this blog into a charity plea by this post earlier today, highlighting the Love Light & Melody Organisation. So, I thought… why the hell not? Let’s make today a humanitarian day here on Burgo’s Blog, and highlight some other causes that I try to support in my own little [...]

The world needs you. Yes. You.

September 3, 2008

I’ll be blunt here… I’m not usually a huge fan of Daughtry’s music. But, in my opinion, anything that references Brad Corrigan’s “Love, Light & Melody” organisation (see a short appearance around 1:52 below) deserves to be spread around. So, below… the video for Daughtry’s “What About Now?”

This, the band’s fourth album, [...]

Joseph Arthur – Temporary People

August 27, 2008

Joseph Arthur (self-portrait)
Once upon a time, Joseph Arthur was one of my favourite artists, right up there with Ryan Adams. But then, something happened. I don’t know what it was, and I’m not pointing any fingers here… after all, it might just have been the case that we were growing apart. People do that, you [...]

Stop the presses. aKING is South Africa’s next big thing.

August 26, 2008

… And yes, I know exactly what a huge statement that is to make. But I’m making it anyway. Only a band that excited me this much could have brought me out of my semi-hiding on this blog. I heard them, and I simply had to get out a post straight away.
God, I’ve missed that [...]

Death Cab for Cutie, live at the Tivoli in Brisbane

An Horse kicked off [...]

Drips and Drabs…

August 15, 2008

Here’s me, not one post earlier, saying that things were going to be quite around here for the next week or two. Yet here I am, putting up a second post today! Truth is, I’ve had an unexpected opening in my schedule, and with a spare hour before my next meeting now, I thought I [...]
