Because the world is basically a crazy place, weird news stories abound. If you find a true news story that's bizarre, funny or just a little bit different; this is the place to post it.

A nice reminder that people are pretty much the same, all over the world.

the little river band are on tour in... 2020 Omfg! I just googled after I read your post and realised its a US tour. I never even knew they were a thing outside of Australia. How weird, especially after all this time.

okay, further update....looks like it's only one of the original members left, and I guess he bought the rights to the name somehow. Also found this old Aussie music show from the late 1970s featuring the original lineup. Toe tapping, middle of the road blast from the distant past.

I listed to "Cool Change" about ten times in a row yesterday. Hilarious lyrics: "Well I was born in the sight(sign?) of water/And it's there that I feel my best/The albatross and the whales, they are my brothers."
Classic.
It will never cease to amaze me how I can remember every word, every melody, every note of songs from my youth, even as my short-term memory continues its long, slow decline.
