A track I love but didn't suit the last record. Its now on a compaliation CD called "ORIGINAL ALLSORTS "


(2) Love will tear us apart (live)

Matt and I did this terrible qpac 80's tribute gig. One of the worst things we've ever done, the only good thing about is was we were paid $800 which I used to go on tour. HOWEVER wel did also get a really cool recording out of it.

(3) Devils Eyes.
A single that we released between records.

(4) Tacky song
Some wacky I wrote on coke in canada which still outsells anything I've done.

(5)Lion in your bed

EDWARD GUGLIELMINO – Late At Night
WEDNESDAY, 17 DECEMBER 2008
(EDG/Independent)
Local polariser with accomplished new release

In the insular town that is Brisbane, it's almost impossible not to hear more about a performer's antics than their actual performance, but that's where I'm at with Edward Guglielmino. Guerrilla gigs, snarky emails and generally doing whatever he wants onstage, this type of action is only excusable if the music is good enough. Upon listening to Mr G's diffuse and caustic new album, I now give him permission to unleash his inner eccentric. The droning dread engulfing album opener Caught In A Landslide is contradicted by the fun, sing-along nature of following track Fail With Me. Such oppositions are rife on Late At Night; I suspect they were explicit choices made by the writer. His cavalcade of supporting musicians go to lengths to ensure this album is one of local camaraderie and comfort, but it's obviously Guglielmino's baby, a baby that will probably suffer from some pretty severe bouts of multiple personality disorder when it grows up.

Yet another album review

Hey why don't YOU buy one.
www.edg.ug/shop


EDWARD GUGLIELMINO – Late At Night
(EDG)


Rich-voiced local singer/songwriter with a penchant for sonic experimentalism hits the melodic G-spot

Brisbane's Edward Guglielmino wants you to know about him. Two years in the making, Late At Night is both a consummation of Ed's musical and lyrical ideas and a true indie slowburner. Rich on reverb and understated lo-fi atmospherics, the album possesses an appropriate nighttime feel, Ed's spacious croon recalling Tim Buckley and (especially) young Ian McCulloch of Echo & The Bunnymen, none more so than on the short, philosophical opener Caught In The Landslide. The song captures Ed G's artistic essence in under two minutes, its chiming guitars and heartbeat bline building to a climax before gently fading off. The subtly sarcastic Fail With Me and soaring Rhythm Of Life give way to the harmonic nirvana of Lion In Your Bed and the title track's sparse grandeur. Guest singer Nicoletta Panebianco contributes pion-laden vocals to the sensuous Take Me Home Tonight, with Jamie Trevaskis's haunting bowed guitar and Peta Wilson's Rhodes piano giving the song extra tension. Sublime closer Crushed By A Late Night Dream melds Ed's melodic tones and echoing guitars with a substratal synth line to an epic effect, followed by a long pause and a brief acoustic hidden track. Tender is the night.

Album Review 4 stars

EDWARD GUGLIELMINO
Late At Night (Television Records)

After touring the east coast of Australia umpteen times, as well as Europe, on the back of two EPs, local singer-songwriter Edward Guglielmino has channeled his creative juices and delivered a triumphant debut album with Late At Night. Guglielmino has sculpted the soundscapes of these ten songs with a considerable attention to detail, right down to the smallest scale. Gentle layers of electronica waft into existence here and there, while other subtle additions such as a choir or a bowed guitar build atmosphere and afford the album an underlying grandeur. But, importantly, the instrumentation is used tastefully and the arrangements leave plenty of space for Guglielmino's voice to breathe.

Guglielmino's vocal style – a compelling, slightly off-kilter drawl with a considerable range – like most things boasting longevity, is an acquired taste, but rest ured there's plenty to it that can be savored time and time again. He has the ability to create an understated drama with his voice, breathing emotion into these songs and believability in the sentiments of his lyrics. His best demonstration of this comes with both 'Status Quo' and the gorgeous title track, where Guglielmino reaches almost operatic delivery as he sweeps the songs along on a plaintive baritone. There's an ominous overtone to opener 'Caught In A Landslide', a gloriously carefree slant to 'Fail With Me' and a sensual yearning to 'Rhythm Of Life' and 'Lion In Your Bed', all of which are made believable by the aptly matched tone of Guglielmino's phrasing and considered arrangements. Elsewhere, Annaliese Redlich takes lead vocals on the wonderfully moody 'Take Me Home Tonight'.

Late At Night is a progressive, often noirish album with a palpable intellectual edge and would go down a treat with anyone who eschews the radio waves in search of true art.

Colourful Touring

Coloutful touring as always bumping into my fans which are for the most part as crazy as I am.

This tour included an interview on a theatrical talk show called keys in a bowl, my answers to the questions where so intense it made my host cry back stage after the show. (yes I did feel bad about it, yes I did apoligise)

I also managed to break my tasmanian promoter/bookers mothers umbrella, which was hand made by his dead father, as a parting gift to his mother!

Hmmm, and projectile vomiting into the gutter after the empress show, I started to wonder if this was a cursed tour?!

Well at least the shows have been well attended. And today I received a lovely email from one of my fans, offering me a joint rolled using one of my business cards.

Fantastic. Pictured below.

Big thanks to the venues that had us!

Are Narcissists addicted to being famous?

Question:

Are Narcissists addicted to being famous?

Answer:

You bet. This, by far, is their predominant drive. Being famous encompes a few important functions: it endows the narcissist with power, provides him with a constant Source of Narcissistic Supply (admiration, adoration, approval, awe), and fulfils important Ego functions.

The image that the narcissist projects is hurled back at him, reflected by those exposed to his celebrity or fame. This way he feels alive, his very existence is affirmed and he acquires a sensation of clear boundaries (where the narcissist ends and the world begins).

There is a set of narcissistic behaviours typical to the pursuit of celebrity. There is almost nothing that the narcissist refrains from doing, almost no borders that he hesitates to cross to achieve renown. To him, there is no such thing as "bad publicity" – what matters is to be in the public eye.

Because the narcissist equally enjoys all types of attention and likes as much to be feared as to be loved, for instance – he doesn't mind if what is published about him is wrong ("as long as they spell my name correctly"). The narcissist's only bad emotional stretches are during periods of lack of attention, publicity, or exposure.

The narcissist then feels empty, hollowed out, negligible, humiliated, wrathful, discriminated against, deprived, neglected, treated unjustly and so on. At first, he tries to obtain attention from ever narrowing groups of reference ("supply scale down"). But the feeling that he is compromising gnaws at his anyhow fragile self-esteem.

Sooner or later, the spring bursts. The narcissist plots, contrives, plans, conspires, thinks, analyses, synthesises and does whatever else is necessary to regain the lost exposure in the public eye. The more he fails to secure the attention of the target group (always the largest) – the more daring, eccentric and outlandish he becomes. Firm decision to become known is transformed into resolute action and then to a panicky pattern of attention seeking behaviours.

The narcissist is not really interested in publicity per se. Narcissists are misleading. The narcissist appears to love himself – and, really, he abhors himself. Similarly, he appears to be interested in becoming a celebrity – and, in reality, he is concerned with the REACTIONS to his fame: people watch him, notice him, talk about him, debate his actions – therefore he exists.

The narcissist goes around "hunting and collecting" the way the expressions on people's faces change when they notice him. He places himself at the centre of attention, or even as a figure of controversy. He constantly and recurrently pesters those nearest and dearest to him in a bid to reure himself that he is not losing his fame, his magic touch, the attention of his social milieu.

Truly, the narcissist is not choosy. If he can become famous as a writer – he writes, if as a businessman – he conducts business. He switches from one field to the other with ease and without remorse because in all of them he is present without conviction, bar the conviction that he must (and deserves to) get famous.

He grades activities, hobbies and people not according to the pleasure that they give him – but according to their utility: can they or can't they make him known and, if so, to what extent. The narcissist is one-track minded (not to say obsessive). His is a world of black (being unknown and deprived of attention) and white (being famous and celebrated).

Art speaks the soul

A friend of mine and I constantly get into argument's about how she thinks that I think artists have an elevated position in society.

I keep trying to explain, that I think we artists age slower and our souls are happier, but not because we are "elevated" but because I believe everyone on earth was put here to contribute a great idea.

Not just artistic, also scientific, or technical, or philosophical. I believe every living being wants to contribute and bend reality in someway.

Many get caught in an idea at school that they are robots meant to create an economy (which by the way is about the fall apart globally, well probably never see a time like this again), so they don't express that inner idea dying to get out. I believe they suffer some sort of feeling of being caged or being unable to express a certain feeling.

Perhaps this is the reason nearly everyone person I run into in the real world seems severely depressed.  I think we should all do some sort of work for a living, we have to contribute something to the world. But at the same time, which should all be helping people-kind move forward by contributing great ideas.

When I worked at david jones, I was depressed, but mainly because everyone around me was so sad and trapped. I will never get my self in a situation where I am servicing a number of debts, this seems like a prison, and also I believe money is a great distraction from the true meaning of life.

There was a time when I was embarred  at being caught at a day job buy someone who knew me firstly as a musician, my attitude has changed as I have gotten older.  Working at the troubadour I see people everyday who have my albums, and I feel proud now that the reason I contribute ideas into the world isn't economical, and they can see it. I still need to work to make life above the poverty line. I create ideas because it is in human nature to do so, and it is by no means a elevated human position, it is in-fact human nature.

SO JUST WHO THE F**K IS EDWARD GUGLIELMINO?

Monday, October 6 - For Immediate Release

SO JUST WHO THE F**K IS EDWARD GUGLIELMINO?

http://edg.ug - NEW OFFICAL WEBSITE
www.myspace.com/edwardguglielmino

Love him or hate him, Edward Guglielmino is an artist people talk about. Whether it be about his constant online bantering, an endless run of east coast and international touring or his unique style of avant-garde crooning, the last couple of years have seen the artist be the centre of conversation on many an occasion. Now after a two year recording project with Brisbane producer Matt Redlich, Edward is finally ready to put the music where his mouth is with his latest album Late At Night.

Ed G. is not so much a rebel as simply someone intent on doing things his own way. His own way has, until earlier this year, been him playing solo, occasionally with a likeminded guest, whimsically re-interpreting his songs from gig to gig, writing, recording and uploading from all corners of the globe, pausing regularly to collate an official release made up of a mix of bedroom and even hotel recordings.

But, like any good artist, his way has now evolved. Evolved from the indie-kid mix of bedroom and hotel recordings to a fully produced and realised affair that is Late At Night. Still, not completely abandoning the charm and luxury of time that comes with home recording, several of the vocal takes where literally done late at night in the semi-permanent recording facility Redlich set up in Ed's home with the aim to achieve the desired mood that was sometimes hard to capture in the studio.

The result is an album that breathes with ease, swaying through musings of life from the opening frames of 'Caught In A Landslide' and the sceptical 'Fail With Me', to the radio-esque 'Rhythm Of Life' and the striking 'Lion in Your Bed'.

Later parts of the album highlight Ed's reign against the conventional with the revealing, self portrayal as the 'prodigal son' on 'No Body is Perfect' , and then abandoning convention altogether with the haunting 'Take Me Home Tonight' featuring a lead vocal by Nicoletta Panebianco.

Overall, Late At Night is as uncompromised as it is realised, delivering a stunning cohesive piece of work that leaves you feeling like you know the artist more than most albums allow.

how will I know when I am famous?

Because my music career hasn't been funded by a major label. Because everything that has bought me to this point here has been a small step, one foot in front of the other. Everything happens so slowly that I can never be sure, if infact I am a mental case with a serious delusion about my status, or if in fact this is morning I have woken up to find out I made that last step over to the fame line..



Matt my band mate and guitarist tells me not think about it, but it can be hard when it becomes more and more a part of my day to day existence. So am I famous? or am I just a nutcase?



One friend of mine at one point was extraordinary famous, he couldn't get a coffee with me without a swam of fans coming up to him. We couldn't do much out, so we usually hung out at mine, or he wore a big hat.



Experiencing the trappings of fame though someone else made me realize that.



1. I am not famous, nor are a few people in my life who seem to think they are. (no names mentioned, but you know who you are)



2.I never want to be a delusion head who thinks he is famous, even though really he is actually a blip.



3. Although I still want to live comfortably of my music, if I can avoid being famous in the process that would be rather awesome.



I think one thing about the experience of celebrity, its always amplified if your the object of celebratory desire. 99.99999999999% of the people on this earth have absolutely no idea who I am, in which case I am not at all famous not even slightly.



However people have told me I am, some people seem to have convinced themselves that I am a celebrity of some sort, (and I argue with them, which I think they think is false modesty).



Due to the weirdness of my name, on many occasion my parents are asked if they are related to me when people spot there names on the cards ect.



Also open my public email address and there will be about 60 - 70 emails a day from people about my music. I rarely go out to the small valley I live in without people I don't know saying o to me.



I used to do facebook, but I cannot because to many weirdos poke me and send me funny feedback about my shows.



So perhaps I get to experience all the things about fame, without any of the good things. Perhaps I am well known figure amongst poor, unemployed, disenchanted wankers, who buy one of my records and burn it to 50 of there friends. (sorry guys you know I love you)



Because if you haven't noticed I still work for a music venue to make ends meet.


Perhaps we need to coin a new term for the modern underground artist going though what I am going though.



Something like Fame-arse. or Briz-celbritiy.

Spirts dressed as aliens read from the book for revelations too me.

I had the flu bad. I was sick of being indoors and I had been given tickets to the breeders at the zoo. So I went out and drank with three friends to the tunes till we were all deep under lucidity.

After a few joints and still fluey I walked home at 4 in the morning the pavement felt like marshmellos under my feet.

I got home and took 3 night codral and two neurohen plus. The walls of my apartment are melting, My inner voice becomes audable though both ears. I can feel my heart beat in my eyes.

I fall on my bed and p out, and flash of light. I see jesus, he fly's with me over the crop circles in england, explaining how to decode them. Spirts dressed as aliens read from the book for revelations too me. A healing light shines from within my body. I start to breath again. I fall asleep.

Expecting to be sicker, and more hung over than I have ever been, I wake up the next day feeling reborn. I'd been baptized by something outside of me or inside of me. The flu had gone. I haven't felt better.

People think Im crazy for thinking 911 was an inside job

but TODAY in mainstream media this story comes out.


DEFENCE Minister Joel Fitzgibbon has asked for an urgent briefing about a U.S. military plan to test deadly nerve gas on Australian soldiers during the 1960s.

It's been revealed that the US military planned to test the gas on Australian soldiers in far north Queensland during the Cold War.

Newly declified Defence and Prime Minister's office files show that the U.S. was strongly pushing then prime minister Harold Holt's government in the 1960s to allow tests of two of the deadliest chemical weapons ever developed – VX and GB, better known as Sarin nerve gas.

The revelation was aired yesterday morning on the Nine Network's Sunday program.

It said the top-secret plan, which was never acted on, involved allowing 200 mainly Australian combat troops to be aerially bombed and sprayed with the chemical weapons.

It's understood the Iron Range rainforest near Lockhart River in far north Queensland was the likely location for the tests.

The proposal was put forward by former US defence secretary Robert McNamara in 1963.

Mr Fitzgibbon said he's disturbed by the report, and has called for an urgent briefing about the plan.

"(It is) difficult to believe any such request came forward, but if it did, surely it would have been rejected by the conservative government of the day out of hand," he said.

"I have asked Defence for an urgent and full briefing on this matter."

Former prime minister Malcolm Fraser, who was minister for the army from 1966 to 1968, denied any knowledge of the US proposal.

"If anything like that had ever been put to me as army minister, I would not only have said no, I also would have queried . . . with the American president, ..What the are your people doing?"

My visit to the government music supervisor.

I went to visit the government music supervisor and he was sleep on his desk.

"Your majesty!?" I yelled

He was in a deep sleep, and it was as if his ears were deaf.

"YOUR MAJESTY"

The sleeping man awoke, his eyes where pale, he looked underfed and far to old to be working in the youth department. For a moment I thought I was in the clical department.

"er sir, am I in the youth department"

"Yes you are" he extended his A in a radio voice.

On the wall his desk was a slogan which he'd been sleeping upon. "Youth Department Tripled Jobs in Australia for musicians"

"Sir, Sir, I bought my record its two years in the making and......."

"Hang on" he interrupted "Your Australian?"

"yes sir"

"and your based in australia"

"yes sir"

"not signed to a trendy indi label of some sort"

"no sir"

"Ah we must then use the wheel of fortune"

Reverb for fortune came from nowhere, behind him was a wheel with many records on it. Like the ones at the RSL on raffle night. He took my record and placed in on the wheel and gave it a big spin.

The wheel span and the albums became a blur, I couldn't see which was which, like some collage or generic indi music. With the occasional album of some value.

The wheel landed on the album just prior to mine. A band from sydney called Fox Father, which I had heard once, and sounded identical to the cure. Exactly the same.

"Sir surely your not going to put this on the list of registered musicians for youth!, its a copy of a band from the 80's, its got no artistic......"

"Artistic!" he again interrupted "I am the king on independent music!, the KING! and the wheel of fortune is the best way to decide what is artistic!"

"See these ratings?" he pulled out a sheet "We are huge in regional center's all thanks to this wheel!" pointing to the graph.

I left his office in dismay. The istants in the corridors scuffled about, they were all upset, but the king had long ago canceled all interactions.

When I finish this record with matt, and tour it around australia and europe. I will come home. Ill sell everything I don't need. Ill by a small car, and Ill put my music collection in storage.

I will buy a block of land out in the bush, hopefully near rainforest. I will construct a tipi and live in it, only returning to the city to play shows, and record.

I will try and live like this for as long as it makes sense.

God I hope I keep to this plan. I feel the call of the wild.

A letter I am going to send to the man living benith me

I am going to get my parents to draft me a fake logo. They are graphic artists.

Dear Shane McDonnell.

The Department of Community living Queensland enforces a standart of living for people living in apartment or close quarter living arrangements. It takes many complaints before a case is investigated.

Our investigator has observed music over 9.2dbs being played at 8-am on Sunday 13th of April. This is clearly outside of the legal and reasonable limit for community living.

It is a requirement upon receiving this letter than you cease any loud activities in your apartment and/or the surrounding area.

This letter is to inform you that nine (9) complaints have been made about the noise coming from your apartment. From six (6) different residences. If the Department receives another complaint police will immediately be sent to your residence to remove the offending article, and your landlord will be informed of the breach.

Further beaches will lead to immediate eviction, under act 12.3 of the community living act 1996.

We remind you the department only gets involved in these cases under extreme and unusual cirstances. This letter should be taken very seriously, any further action taken will go on your residency record permanently.

Regards
Jane Baldvillie.

Two Affirmations on Being Competitive

I am guilty as sin, of in the past, seeing my career as a competition between me and other musicians. Thankfully of the past 6 months, I have realized that competition is has been designed as a divide and conquer mechanism which permeates to every sector in society.

Its not mine, its been created for me, and I have adapted to it. But not anymore. I will share with you an outlook that I have which has made me a better human being, and a much happier one.

I think my theory will mainly be beneficial for the artists that read my blogs. However it maybe be helpful to everyone. I am not sure.

So my first affirmation (i know I am getting all newagey on you) is.

I Edward Guglielmino, in great health, will exist and create music for at least another 55 years, (probably another 75 with the technology which will be available in the coming years). Nothing can prevent that apart from death. No-one can stop me from creating music. Ever.

This affirmation helps to prevent me from doing somethings I have done too much in the past.

Comparing my success to other musicians in a competitive manner.
I mean whats the point if we are all going to be around for 75 years longer so much will happen in this time for all of us.

Also feeling rushed to get great success is no longer a stressful reaction to my life’s ambition. I have so much time, why run to the finish line and tire out when I can stroll and observe the scenery of each stage of my life and my artistic career.


Second affirmation (sorry again)
My path is my path alone, it does not compare or effect other peoples life paths unless they choose to use me an example, which is there condition not mine.

My music is unique because it come from inside me, (or maybe outside??). It has already taken me on amazing path, I have seen many many amazing things. It will continue to do so. Regardless of what happens to other people in the lives, their success or lack there of, will never effect or change my life path.

Everyones path is unique and unaffected by other peoples life choices, unless someone chooses to use you life as an example of something, (ei, fame, success, failure, arrogance, emulation, and so on)

But that is there problem, not yours, and there words about your path is a reflection of there own insecurities.

God me God

I’ve been watching Derran Brown for most of today on youtube. Its really interesting the way he explores psychological manipulation. He shows that most psychic stuff is a trick of the mind. He also shows how powerful the mind is.

Its a fine line really, but what you learn, either metaphysically, or physically that if you believe you are capable of something or can be convinced it comes true. I been feeling overwhelmed with happiness up until I realized that these seemingly spiritual moments I have been having lately could be just a trick of the mind. Or a form of self hypnosis.

Feeling down about it for a few hours cleaning my apartment, I released that it actually made me a really powerful being. If have been able to convince myself of my happiness and freedom. My understanding of how people and the world work, had come from inside me rather than from external sources then is not something to feel down about rather feel great about.

I have always believed that it would be a long wait until I made a good living of my music and art. Because a few psychic’s had told me so. But I’ve let go of this belief now realizing the belief has been holding me down. I have had good money lately, and been ignoring it, wait for the "big success" prophesied to happen when I am 32 by two psychics. those psychic’s because I am success full now.

Today, my main shift, is I have been thanking external things for my abundance and happiness lately. I thought I had nothing to do with me that I had unplugged myself from the matrix, but now I see I have spent the last 24 years trying to free myself from this illusion of life. I was a rebel in kindergarden (just ask my mum). So it was me after all. If you think I am being to humanistic, I still believe in some sort of "god" type character, I’m just not sure if he created man, or humankind created him. Imagine if we created god, what an amazing force humankind really is!

life on mars.

On May 8th, 2001, a press conference was held in New York City to announce the discovery of the possibility that an ancient civilization once existed on planet Mars.

The press conference featured Tom Van Flandern, a former Chief Astronomer for the United States Naval Observatory, Brian O’Leary, a former Apollo scientist-astronaut trained for America’s first manned mission to Mars, and Michael C. Luckman, director of the New York Center for UFO Research.

They describe a new human-like face, strange tunnels, pyramids and signs of current vegetation on Mars from among the 65,000 released NASA/JPL photographs taken by the Mars Global Surveyor.

A short blog about my second favorite thing.

I woke up this morning at 12:00 noon, and went to the kitchen to make an instant coffee. I looked out the window, too see if the coffee shop across the road was open today. It was closed.

I thought to myself.

"Man I would do ANYTHING for a latte"

and a little voice in my head said

"ANYTHING except walk 4 minutes down the road"

I laughed at myself for a few minutes. These are the moments I live for.

MSNBC Reporter: I hope there a secret prison for all 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists’

The corporate media has stepped up an ongoing smear campaign against
anyone who dares to question the government's leaky and falsified
account of the events of September 11th 2001.

We received reports this morning that MSNBC ran
a piece on Morning Joe during which a reporter called
for anyone questioning the official account to be placed in secret
CIA prisons.

One emailer wrote:

MSNBC Reporter on Morning Joe Today said "I
hope there a secret prison for all 9/11 Conspiracy Theorists
in Eastern Europe somewhere"


So when is it official that we live in the New Soviet Union,
the U.S.S.A.?



The piece was a response to events in Corpus Christi
yesterday where police
arrested and detained a 9/11 truth protester
with
a sign at a Bill Clinton rally.

Video of the piece has now surfaced on youtube.
Watch as the reporter sardonically states "you don't do that
because that's when the secret service steps in", while his
yes people, including Joe Scarborough himself, who seem to be
having their own conversations in the background, start braying
"Tase him, tase him bro" like automated robots:



Evidently in the new America sign waving and enjoying
your first amendment right is now considered a matter for the
police.

These events follow the phony
media-contrived "outrage"
over comments
made by Oscar winning actress Marion Cotillard.

After the comments, which are reportedly a year
old, were hyped by the mainstream media, it quickly became apparent
that a manufactured frenzy was in full swing when some newspapers
wrote false reports claiming Cotillard had retracted her comments
and apologized.

It is clear that this move was designed to foster
a default position media response when it comes to any future
story involving 9/11 truth.

With Oscar winning Hollywood actresses, legendary
musical performers and a whole host of other notable public figures
joining the hundreds of professors, scholars, former congressman,
former intelligence agents and ex government officials that have
questioned the official story of the attacks, together with the
thousands of independent researchers, there is no longer any doubt
that the 9/11 truth movement has gone mainstream.

In response there has been an increased backlash,
driven primarily by a mainstream media in its realization that
its archaic role and very existence is under direct threat from
the huge awakening and independent search for the truth that is
bubbling up to the surface of mainstream culture.

In its transformation from an underground phenomenon
to a predominant cultural movement, 9/11 truth, as with any movement
of significance that has come before it, has inevitably evolved
and broadened, forging a truth movement per se.

This is something of which the establishment media
is frightened to death.

There are, of course, those who will stick with
the establishment, those who refuse to accept this cultural change,
those who find it less appealing and more of a tiresome struggle
to think for themselves.

The kind of people who will agree with Bill O'Reilly
when he threatens
any "truther"
, his definition of which
is a person who does not agree with every uninformed thing he
says.

The kind of people who will agree when a Fox News
analyst suggests any "dissenter" should be or "beaten to a pulp".

Those people who, when we write an article detailing
the building of concentration camps in America, will simultaneously
deny the existence of those camps while calling
for us to be incarcerated
and tortured within them.

We keep coming back to the following quote but there
is no other that better describes the awakening and the resultant
backlash we are currently witnessing:

"First they ignore you, then they ridicule
you, then they fight you, then you win."

Lost of Love Mission Statment

Picture this, people spewed into the streets. Television Cameras everywhere filming the chaos. This is not a chaos of violence and hate, this is a chaos of love, and friendship. The chaos of anti-establishment.

The fricken hecks and Lost of Love are the new Cori Delaneys of Brisbane accept we unite people in peace and freedom of expression, not war, not drunken violence. We bring evolution.

Lets show the people power in Australia, lets show that art is more powerful than any government, or enforcement agency. Lets show the systems of power that they work for us, and should fear us.

Lost of Love and The Fricken Hecks stand up against Terrorism of all forms, including the rate raise, enviro-mental, economic terrorism that is bought to you by the media and government today. (or as I like to refer to them as "the govermedia")

Ladies and gentlemen lets make a stand for Loverism. We are Loverists, our actions based in love not fear. Unite, Dance, Evolve. Free the spirt. Free the mind.

Love Lost of Love

My body the temple.

My body is a temple
So I am told
So what I if I like throwing vodka and orange on it in the afternoon with breakfast
So what if a black coffee and a cigarette makes me happy while sitting on the couch and watching
"everything is illuminated"
At 2 am
it makes me feel good.
I watch my gut grow, I love food, I love avocado and cream cheese on toast.
Mexican for dinner.
I have a yager bomb before work to make it more fun,
It my temple.
I joint before bed,
A line of coke in New York..
Pot and Beer the whole time I am in Berlin.
Sex with a stranger.
Its my temple.
Why do feel guilty for ing up my temple.
Its mine
God gave it to me.
Who says I am meant to make my temple last forever.
I seen some 100 year old temples and they look like .
I would like to move to a new temple when I am thirty.

Nocturnalism

Its 2:19 am, and thanks to my new job at the troubadour I am now nocturnal. I think I have always been accept, now I don't have to scream in pain when I get up at 9:00 for some day job.

I love the night, its silence and solitude.

I have also discovered there is a term for being a nocturnal human. Delayed sleep syndrome, and thats its genetic and there isn't a thing I can do about it. Its evolutionary. When you think about it, cavemen needed night watchers who naturally stayed awake during the night.

So all my life I was in a mood till about 2pm, and now I know why.

Love it.

So here is to finally getting a good days rest!

Time-off Review.

THE KINDNESS OF STRANGERS, EDWARD GUGLIELMINO, LIAM GRIFFIN

The Troubadour: 03.02.08

It's a sad but ironic fact that while the drizzling Sunday feeling has probably kept some punters at home tonight, the set that Liam Griffin delivers is perfect for such an evening. While appearing slightly nervous between songs, Griffin sans backing band serves up a set of sincere acoustic tracks, with sleepy guitar meandering through a mixed set of both new songs and tracks lifted from his EP Pictures.  Unfortunately the chatty crowd talks over Griffin's new Single 'Until You Fall' but the joke's on them - they just missed a solo rendition of what could easily become the next big anthemic pop ballad.

Headlining band playing between support acts? What will postmodernism bring us next?! Cleverly crafted pop songs from The Kindness of Strangers, it would seem, as Brigitte Allen's impressive vocals and David Killen's quirky ukulele descend upon us with 'Ghost in Love'. Allen's velvety smooth flute adds a sense of charm and cl on 'Raindrops' and it's a feeling the band maintains throughout the set. 'Test the Edge' is given a darker treatment than on the Ampersand and Ampersand EP it comes from, with Alice Jones' drums giving it a mysterious and unnerving feeling. It's clear that each member of The Kindness of Strangers is talented in their own right, and the result is a band that oozes cl and flair without taking themselves too seriously.

Much of the small crowd gravitates towards the bar or door after the headliners finish, as one might predict, but still-to-play support Edward Guglielmino cares not. More to the point, the unusual order-of-play seems appropriate for Guglielmino's idiosyncratic tales of life and love. His amusing cynicism prevails as he wistfully winds through topics of doomed relationships, karma and the dilemmas of cheesy song dedications ("I know it's tacky to mention you in a song… but I miss you all day long" - 'Tacky Song'). As his deep baritone alternates with soaring falsetto throughout the set it's not hard to understand why Guglielmino has already drawn comparisons around town to the likes of Lou Reed and Jeff Buckley.

Faster Louder Review By Jonathan B

I arrived at the East Brunswick Club almost a moment too late, but happily caught the tail end of Sundown and/or last stand. Their sonic flow of electro buzzes and swirling guitar flooded the room, and later speaking with Adam I was informed that this was the first show with the new line up. The East Brunswick only held a handful of people on this peculiar night, yet that didn't stop the performers making spectacular music.

Next up on the bill was A Friend of Mine and they reminded everyone that loud 90's grunge was not dead, it was just sleeping. They had an eerie likeness of one of the greatest school bands ever: The Zit Remedy from Degri High. But this might be before your time kids; I mean it was the late 80's after all. On first impressions, however, I wasn't alone in drawing comparisons to Nirvana or Alice in Chains. Maybe it was also the overexcited smoke machine (haven't seen one of those in a while) which added to the school of rock authenticity as the guitarist shouted out "Does it look like my amp's on fire?" However, you couldn't turn a deaf ear to them; with double unison vocals which droned into a sea of power chords, and a drummer that rocked hard enough to put holes in your ear drums. The laptop beats also added a sophistication to what could be an easily pigeon holed group. A Friend of Mine gave the crowd a grand finale rock explosion, with extra smoke.

Next in line we had Lucien Simon from Tasmania. A man who is no stranger to the hard knocks on the road and has certainly done his time. Lucien is a troubadour hailing from one of the biggest bands of the Tie 90's – Dust. Lucien graced the stage; looking a little like he came straight from working on the railroad, with crumpled shirt and blue jeans and blue collar songs in tow. Instantly serving the crowd with his wacky sense of humour as he introduced himself and explained how he had blistered his pinkie. "I'm gonna play with pain," he joked. "A pain that's in my heart, a pain that's in my soul, a pain that's in my pinkie". And Lucien did just that – pionate songs of lost love and longing, yet retaining a waving fist of pride. "I bought me a bottle of wine so I could forget the time," he crooned.

It's the man's voice, which becomes wonderfully hypnotic. It's like Eddie Vedder and Mark Lanegan sharing a road story with Bob Dylan. Lucien is also, definitely, a storyteller. After the second acoustic onslaught, Lucien introduced drummer Stuart Braun (Dust) to the stage, and the two of them rocked out several acoustic driven roots songs, highlighting Stuart Braun's flawless skills, especially considering the two of them hadn't actually rehearsed in a while.

Lucien finished his set once again, solo with his acoustic charm and left the crowd wanting more, including me. As we waited for the second last performer I downed another pint of larger and heard Jessie Warren ( aka Carry Nation ) through the chatter. A friend of Edward Guglielmino and also a Brisbanite. However, this is where I have to be honest when it comes to critiquing an artist objectively, and it's hard to not be subjective. To start with, Jessie looks beautiful; a very attractive brunette and everything about her is sweet (including her voice). It would be far too easy to stereotype Carry Nation as a run of the mill Sarah Blasko or New Buffalo wanna be, however these are the instant comparisons that came to mind. Jessie has that little girl fragility on stage, and her voice often echoed reflections of the band Mum and a sultry Jewel, in her earlier acoustic years. There can often be indiscretions made by people when they see a sweet girl pick up an acoustic guitar and squeak out folksy love songs, but it may be because their approach is often heavily patterned to that genre. Carry Nation may not be quite ready to capture a full audience with every breath she takes, but given time and experience I'm sure she will find her voice.

Finally on the bill we had Edward Guglielmino (Brisbane). Ed walks out dressed in black, wearing his usual clic Buddy Holly style gles and a red Stratocaster slung over his shoulder, instantly owning the stage. "I am so famous right now I feel like a star," he teases as he begins to chug away on his guitar and breaks into a falsetto. Yet even slightly off key, like Neil Young and Robert Smith on crack. By the second song Ed is screaming: "If you want to feel my fire, look into my ing eyes!" Channelling Frank Black from 1987, with not a soul in the room stirring. You have got to love the man's presence. "Thanks Melbourne," he jokes and receives the laughs. "Sometimes you write songs that come true," he muses.

"Well this one is about a girl I used to see, but we broke up. It wasn't true then but it became true," he explains, giving a creepy smirk. "Baby wanted more, the mind is so vacant and her body is so raw." Through many of Ed's songs lies a dry wit and humour, as if he's writing the lyrics to amuse himself before all others. Ed plays with his voice, often shifting from low registers to sudden high-pitched notes, like Jeff Martin imitating Jeff Buckley, yet with an anomalous technique. Halfway through his set Ed calls up Lucien and Jessie to the stage to share a single vocal mic on 'Devils' Eyes'.

It would be a disaster if it was a full house, but, it's like a little family watching their friends in their lounge room. Lucien dances ridiculously in the background as Jessie sings wavering backing vocals (after one too many) and all three of them clown around like clroom mates. After the fun and games is over, Ed takes the stage solo again "Radio isn't everything," he jokes. "My space is the next big thing. Face book is gonna save my career." You've got to admire Ed's light-hearted cynicism; a casual and earthy sincerity mixed with a shrewd sense of humour. Ed closes the night with 'You are an Alien' with a long high falsetto reminiscent of Muse or Tom Yorke, but with perhaps more nostril involved, yet continuing to surprise his audience with a broken deep husk in the verses. Edward Guglielmino is a chameleon and a comedian, and proved to Melbourne that he's willing to metamorphosis at will, but he won't say the word 'f—k' because it's just too rock 'n' roll. I know what you mean Ed. Goodnight Melbourne.

Dream

Death Penalty (Dream)

I had a dream this morning, I was in a penny arcade with two girls, and a punch of hockey playing jocks called out to us. I turned around to face them, and several others appeared out of nowhere. They all wanted to bash me with there hockey sticks, and I called the cowards for not taking me on 1 on 1. They started laying into me, and the janitor came along to break it up. In the orgy of violence one boy broke his neck and died. 

They carried him away, I went off to play my arcade games with girlfriends, the game was not a computer game, but like clay that morphed, little metal balls would drop from the top, and land in clay and your drop was to prevent the balls from getting too the bottom. There was for rows of gooey clay brick that moved each round, and you had to move they clay so that the balls wouldn't get to the bottom in less that 4 moves. I got to a level where two balls would appear so it was twice as hard.

Then once it was game over, I appeared in a court, unlike a modern one, paraded in front of a hateful crowd, with people hanging from the neck in the back ground. I was charged along with several of the boys in the fight, with murder. I was begging for man slaughter, the judge, who was also the president, would not hear it. The janitor was a witness, he was black and it was like the 1800 all of a sudden so he was afraid that he would get blamed too. He told the court we were all vicious.  The judge was about the sentence us to death when a Priest came in.

The Priest was so old he looked somewhat like ET, and somewhat like a decaying body. His jaw was dislocated, and his eyes were black. His skin was like that of a burn victim. He walked like a puppet would walk, I thought that perhaps god has suspended him from string. He told the judge to spare the boys, and they could be under the care of the church. The judge/president feared the Priest, and allowed us to go with the Priest.

Then as soon as I was in the Priests care I released that I would have been better off dead. We had to copy verses from the bible into our books, from 5-am till 12-p.m. every day. One boy had done it for 10 years and now he had graduated to the priests sidekick making sure our verses where right after the priest finished at 6-p.m.. 

We had clamps around out jaws, and when we made a mistake we had to tighten them, ourselves,  if we couldn't the supervisor would tighten them even harder. 

Then once a week we were paraded in front of the towns people and lashed, until we bled. Except for some reason the Priest faked it with me, and he also stopped making sure my clamp was tight. Looking at his alien face, I saw that he had respect for me over the others.

I made my escape on one of the lashing occasions, as I ran around I released I was in Berlin, I was actually in a part I had seen on google earth before I fell asleep. I climbed up several buildings as people shot at me, and jumped on the back of a train. 

Then I woke up, I wondered if everyones dreams were as complex as mine.

I LOVE PAIN, STOMACH PAIN, HEART PAIN, BURNS

I drank to much after work the other night, and got home and threw up blood, I didn't think much of it. Then on christmas day I got sauced again, this time I got stomach cramps and umed it was too much turkey. The camps continued as did the blood, (not in the vomit, but I risk being to graphic).

I'd done this before, burnt a hole in my stomach from drinking to much, (note to self do not let a bartender pour shots into your mouth, and definitely don't egg him on). "Come on!" I yelled " I can take more than that!!"

But I love pain I do, I have only eaten carrot soup in the last day, trying to get my gut to heal, this morning I got up and had lemon in water, the day before I did nothing but it on the couch and feel the pain of my gut. Today I was going to do something, I felt that awful indoor staleness you get when you sit on your all day reading books.

So, I caught the 375 to Tim's house, on the bus listening to sigur ros, and having not eating anything in two days, I felt like death was upon me, it was beautiful. I nearly missed my stop. Tim and his girlfriend Bella were painting there new room, I tried to help, but I got paint on the floor. I told TIm and Bella the lecture my doctor had given me about drinking to much, and how I was bleeding on the inside. Tim felt bad, because it was he who was the bartender.

"Dear Tim, never feel guilty, it is after all, the bartenders job to get one drunk"

My mother picked me up and we went and saw "Hunting and Gathering". I was moving around in my chair and Mum asked me if I was okay. I looked at her "I'm in pain, got a bug"

In the car on the way back to my apartment, I told mum the truth, I was bleeding on the inside. She said "your getting to old to do stupid things", she suggested I make carrot soup when I get home.

So I did, the carrots weren't disintegrating so I poured the hot mixture of water and oil and stock and carrots into the blender. WIthout putting the lid on properly. The soup went everywhere including my arms, giving me nice first degree burns. My arms where stinging my and stomach was throbbing, I missed a girl I love so my heart was broken (the film reminded me of the girl).

I loved it. How great pain is. How refreshing it is to have burns blood, and emotion.

An essay on disappointment

Im just disappointed

I feel a pionate disappointment, for how quickly you fell back into the bull.

All this city and its bull makes me sick, and these days so many people walk around and they are the personification of this city's bull. Its easy to be famous in a country town, you haven't achieved anything if you are. It means absolutely nothing if people know you name and stop you in the street.
If you ed everyday on put it up on myspace, or facebook, and you lived in Brisbane people would stop you in the street too.

Its nice to feed your ego and I know what it is to have your ego inflated, but art that rests on a healthy ego seeks approval from the mes, and for the most part and art seeking approval isn't great art by history's own definition of great art.

Commercial music is simply little commercials for the artist in question, 3 and a half minutes to promote the performer, the one of most successful artist of the naughties was Eminem and he wrote awesome commercials for how great he is.

What of my idols? Bjork, Kurt Cobain, Buckley, Marilyn Manson? Thom York?. I believe that these are flukes, there is no denying that many of these stars wanted to be famous when they were young, but it was there art, not so much there marketing that got them there.

There is nothing wrong with dream of making a living from your art, but its sickening when someone wants to make a living off their face.

I’ve been spoilt

I'm not saying that artists, musicians, writers, actors, directors, and philosophers are better than other people, just far more interesting.

I've been spoilt, I went straight from Studying Art and Uni to full time musicianship. I hadn't gone to bed earlier that 1 AM for over a year. I traveled the country and met amazing artists everywhere I went. The world was an amazing place full of free thinkers. I partied with my favorite rock star, and talked politics, I stayed up all night with a painter and made love and talked about whether god was in my head, or outside my head. I walked to the top of MT wellington and meditated all day.  On my quiet days I would got to the cinema and see a few movies.

I need money all of sudden to sort out a few pressing issues (mainly a credit card debt), and I am working at myer full time. I told my boss I was a musician, and she asked me if  I was going on idol next year. I told her that Bobby was a friend, she said "oh the weird one".  I stood behind the counter all day and talked about the lollies at crazy Clarks with Jen, she ured me they were counterfeit Cadbury bars. During my break I decided I am that I am quitting at the end of the year debt paid or not.

On the way home on the train my ipod ran out of batteries. The group of women in front of me were talking about all the amazing times they had on the Brisbane transport system.

"Yeah one time, like, I caught the 211, and it ended up in Darra, (laughs) so I caught a taxi to Inala (Laughs)"

"That nothing me and trev, we caught a train, and it turned out to be an express ipswitch train, and we ended up in ipswitch"

 "look at that guy! he is running, running for a train, on platform 5! must be inbound" said the morbidly obsese lady.

"Yeah not all the trains are inbound on 5, I thought that, but I got one once and there was track works and I ended up on platform 3 in Taringa"

I turned the less obese lady "Once I lost a gram of coke in Canada and found it in my shirt pocket in Tokyo, so I had accidently smuggled coke across three boarders, funny huh!"

Now that a story!

They were quiet for the rest of the trip.

Press Release

Thursday, August 2 - For Immediate Release

Edward Guglielmino Releases New Single and Announces Dates for Third East Coast Tour Of 2007

You could never accuse Edward Guglielmino (pronounce it "Goo-lee-el-mean-no" please) of making anything easy for himself. Since the release of his second record - T acky [A Very Tacky] EP - the Brisbane singer/songwriter has relentlessly toured the east coast of Australia and established himself quite the following in Berlin.

In 2007 alone, Guglielmino not only made the shortlist of five for the Grant McLennan Scholarship and played to over 5,000 people in two short months, but also he's received national airplay on Triple J and community radio and watched his music shoot up the overall Triple J Unearthed chart (his standalone single 'Crushed By A Late Night Dream' while his current release 'Devil's Eyes' crept in at number 19).

How could even this talented young soloist hope to follow all of this? Well you take a break from recording your long anticipated album, release a single and help to promote it by announcing, another east coast tour, his third for 2007!

'Devil's Eyes' is a slice of avant-guarde, pop brilliance - the kind that Guglielmino is rapidly becoming known for. Recorded at Mive Studios with producer Matt Redlich, the song features rising Brisbane chanteuse Emma Dean on backing vocals and has already received extensive airplay and even attracted the attention of Triple J music director, Richard Kingsmill.

"Guglielmino's got the same singing style as someone like Ed Kuepper. Not a typical rock n roll voice, and maybe an
acquired taste. But he has also got some fine ideas of how to flesh out a track..." - Richard Kingsmill reviewing 'Devil's Eyes'.

And now the dates:

Friday, August 24 | The Globe (Brisbane)
with Mia & The Cupid Arrow, Ghostboy and Golden Virtues

Thursday, August 30 | The Republic (Hobart)
with Lucien Simon and The Front

Saturday, September 1 | Launceston Workers Club (Launceston)

Sunday, September 2 | Stage Door (Hobart)

leafleter obsevation part 2

I was so good at my leafleting job that I was promoted to supervisor, it is now my job to make sure that everyone hands out allot of leaflets during their shift.

Today a new young whipper snapper joined the team and leafleted near the train station.

I went to check on him, but alas, he was sad.

"Whats wrong" I asked

To which he replied

"That Christan dude is creaming me man, he is better than me, and handing out way more leaflets than me"

"Why don't we watch him for a while and see his secret" I said

The Christan leaflet-er had pion, he believed in what he was pushing, he went up to everyone, he had a crazy stare.

I said "pretend your an actor, your role is to copy him only do it with more pion"

The boy laughed and agreed to take part in the experiment.

Half an hour later, I had returned the boy had had a smile and had handed out a days worth of leaflets in 30 minutes, the Christan, had left defeated.

From this experience I can make two deductions.

1. If someone applies the pion of a fundamentalist to their work, they will out do all there colleges.

2.In a controlled environment Australians are more interested in discounts on lunch than Jesus.

Serial Pest

I did a gig underneath the alibi room today, it was a poetry gig not a musician one, although I was asked to play music so i did.

Front row was a heckler, but he heckled like a fan does, not like someone who doesn't like your music.

He had a bright orange aura, and a great smile, and such a sense of rebellion about him.

He clapped loudly after each song and commented loudly on each song.

He had a video camera, held it up and filmed me.

After the set he introduced himself proudly he was none other than Peter Hore the Australian serial pest, it was a true honor to play for such a great artist, and a spirt of independence.

From Perfume salesman to leafleter.

So this time I have come home to a new career in leafleting in the CBD. Work starts 6.30am so I get up at five and have toast and coffee (after to going to bed at about 1am), and watch Americana tele-ads, there is a new way to roast pork using the suns energy, boy thats exciting, after the riveting infomercial I walk to the city.

The disturbing thing is its still dark, and watching the sun rise over the city, makes me turn to PJ harvey on my ipod. Despite this beauty I still like to point out to my boss that even god didn't do anything that important until after light..........

Anyway, I am handing out leaflets, I see a sea of sad people going to work, not a single smile, I helps to reaffirm that job security is now a myth in most of the occident, and these people are more depressed than I am, even thought I probably earn a third of what they do.

As you can imagine, handing out leaflets, its really ing boring, so for an experiment this morning, instead of yelling "$5 cash cow" (don't ask), I yelled, "$5 dollar vouchers for those who walk up these stairs with a smile". Its funny how the 9-5ers need an excuse to smile, but they all did, smiled, and I handed out way over my targeted 1000 leaflets. (No lectures on the environment please unless you have paid me to be an artist this week, thanks)

Walking home at 9.30am I realized that my three hour shift had gone by really fast, and perhaps this morning I had fun. Fun at work????

In other news, my "Hobby" has taken me to number 19 on the triple j unearthedcharts, which is too far from number one, go rate and review it please, I promise you all that if I get played on triple j again, I will make leaflets with smiles on them(on recycled paper) and hand them out in the morning instead of "cash cows" (don't ask)

LOST OF LOVE?
Can anyone tell me how that Lost of Love band get gigs? They are incredibly crap! Why do talented people feel the need to indulge in such to mage their egos just that little bit further?

Maybe if they put a little of that spark they're trying to achieve into their own projects, which are pretty good, those projects might be ing amazing.

Thoughts?

have once seen lost of love.by chance. not choice.


it was a ing storm in a teacup.
they are added to the list of bands/artists in brisbane that make me want my free back.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They seem pretentious and wanky about their band, but when I saw them play they just sounded like 15 year olds who just started a band, drank their mum's vodka and started annoying the neighbours. They're not even a good mess of noise.

It really does surprise me that they get gigs, but aren't they a Brisbane "super group"? Do they draw a good crowd these days at their gig?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
thought they were managed by ben preece or something like that....

were they not the band who caused the big furor with the cops and council when they

played in the rotunda?


they were asked to stop playing because they were so bad and disturbed the diners or something right?


And then posted a bulletin about how close-minded police stopped art, or some such .

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
hahaha

the band would love this,

I know Jackie and Ed, they started the band to people off.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
yeah that's what i'd be saying if my band sucked too

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so if lost of love sucks, then what bands do you guys like?

Hobart Airport

Hobart airport, there is a fog in melbourne and my plane has be delayed 4 hours. Its ok, Hobart Airport is amazing.

So many world cl resturants, with fine wine and dining. Great coffee! and the people here are so well dressed.

There is an array of Judy free shopping to browse. I might just look for my favorite bottle of 1965 merlo.

Not to mention the world cl entertainment systems they have here. Cinema screens showing the works of  Stanly Cubric and David Lynch.

I might just pop down and have a read of the updated version of Foucault's work concerning power, and the relationship between power, knowledge and discourse 

I am so lucky to be caught in this world cl internationally courted airport, surronded by citizens of this country that truely represent the finest our nations character has to offer.

Hobart Airport, a cl of its own.

Like Ms Brady Said. Your Government Is ed

Thanks to Raychel Brady for this article.

The government has admitted the need to secure oil supplies is a factor in Australia's continued military involvement in Iraq.

Defence Minister Brendan Nelson said on Thursday oil was a factor in Australia's contribution to the unpopular war, as "energy security" and stability in the Middle East would be crucial to the nation's future.

Speaking ahead of a key foreign policy speech by Prime Minister John Howard, Dr Nelson said defence was about protecting the economy as well as physical security, and it was important to support the "prestige" of the US and UK.

"The defence update we're releasing today sets out many priorities for Australia's defence and security, and resource security is one of them," he told ABC radio.

..> ..> ..>..>..>

..>"The entire (Middle East) region is an important supplier of energy, oil in particular, to the rest of the world.

"Australians and all of us need to think well what would happen if there were a premature withdrawal from Iraq?"

Dr Nelson said the primary reason for Australian troops remaining in Iraq was to prevent violence between the Sunni and Shia population, and to bring stability to the region.

"We're also there to support our key ally - that's the United States of America - and we're there to ensure that we don't have terrorism driven from Iraq which would destabilise our own region," he said.

"For all of those reasons, one of which is energy security, it's extremely important that Australia take the view that it's in our interests ... to make sure we leave the Middle East and leave Iraq in particular in a position of sustainable security."

Isolationism would not make Australia safer, he said.

When Australia joined the US-led invasion force of Iraq in 2003, the government said it was primarily because Iraq had weapons of m destruction that could pose a threat to the US and its allies.

Opposition Leader Kevin Rudd will outline a section of Labor's foreign policy today in a speech in Sydney.

hey heads, there is this giant ball of energy in the sky that we can use for free. seriously, times like this I feel like doing something militant. Even though I know thats just as stupid.

a short story about the one i love

"What a fickle heart" she remarked,

"Its loaded, ice cold. Broken Spent, the paper flu in her hair!"

"the smell of blood on her parents carpet!"

"the drummer in her attic!"

"the lover(s) in her bed"

"the underwear in her freezer !"

"the penis in her draw, the vibrator in her boyfriends pants (ex)"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to pause for a moment and have a minutes silence for the very poor boy in the myer centre below
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EVERYBODY loves her, so what is the ing point! he thought as he wiped the stain off his tie, caught the elevator up the shaft, remarked on the use of the word "platform level, instead of ground"

"Well dear my myer one card still has its interest free days, and while i can I would like to put this dress on lay-bay" he said to myspace, which was so sick of hearing 20 something year olds make illusions about love for one-another-over-blogs that it almost translated it for him to plane old............... " "

"It tickles my fancy, I write songs for it, I want to be inside it. The other text messages, aren't gods like this lily. A Every(day) Dream is one that wakes you nearly every night a 3-am, tears and all, a hard on" said he.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
She paused, she was so excited! she loved the attention, another blog about me (she thought). (she was wrong the blog isn't about her)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Your so vain you probably think this blog is about you!!!! "said myspace. The internet chuckled at how humans no longer talked in pure english, nor did they talk in 3d.

God remarked to the myer boy.

"That! time-shaft! look at it, There is the River Girl, The Poet, The Doctor, The Actor,
They all bought you sadness!"

Sadness is a dress that fits awfully well!

Monday, September 3 - For Immediate Release

EMMA DEAN AND EDWARD GUGLIELMINO PLAY A ONE-OFF FAREWELL SHOW.

They've been threatening to team up for a show for ages and now, in what can only be described as the most exciting double-billing announcement since the Powderfinger/Silverchair hook up, Brisbane's favourite chanteuse and male avant-guard singer/songwriter are proud to announce one very special evening of musical magic.

By any measure, critically or publicly, Emma Dean and Edward Guglielmino stand shoulder-to-shoulder as two of the best and most popular emerging young artists to come out of Brisbane for some time and together, will embark on a month-long trip overseas. Basing themselves in Berlin, Dean and Guglielmino will be playing shows and experiencing life all over Germany and Europe.

For Dean, it's her first trip abroad and is spreading her wings a little before heading home to begin work on her debut full-length album, anticipated for release in 2008.

Guglielmino is an old hat at travelling, particularly to Berlin where he already has a remarkable following. Like Brisbane, Berlin has been named one of the most exciting cities for music in the world.

Don't miss this incredible one-off show with Emma Dean and Edward Guglielmino playing sets with their own bands as well as teaming up for some very special surprises.

TIME OFF ARTICLE



Art Brute

EDWARD GUGLIELMINO

MANY MUSICIANS argue on unconvincing grounds that there's something unique about their musical endeavors. That they are artists - when, in fact, they're merely conformist mouthpieces perpetuating the commercially-oriented status quo. These are the people that ensure that actual artists are reduced to scraping and scratching for the attention their art deserves.

Local icon-in-the-making Edward Guglielmino is a fitting example of the polar opposite - a young singer-songwriter with an authentic take on 'music as art'. The uniquely artistic strain in Guglielmino's music was recently recognised with due regard when he was short-listed for the inaugural and prestigious Grant McLennan Scholarship.

"It was really flattering for me, especially because I'm a really big fan of The Go Betweens and have been for quite a long time," Guglielmino beams about his short-listing. "My father used to play them to me in the 90s; that's one of the reasons why I applied.

"But I really didn't think they'd like my music, so I was so surprised when I was short-listed. They wanted 20 minutes [of recordings], so I sent in five songs - three from the EP and two new recordings, which were 'Devils Eyes' and 'Crushed By A Late Night Dream'."

Guglielmino - who has had songs from his aforementioned debut Tacky [A Very Tacky] EP spun on Triple J - has just released one of those acclaimed new recordings, 'Devils Eyes', as his next single, and the dark, autobiographical tune has already received national critical acclaim.

"I wrote it in high school," Guglielmino explains of the single. "I was 17 and went to this block of show homes - we found one with a key in the mailbox. We went in and drank vodka and cooked on the stove, I ped out in one of the cupboards. I woke up at three in the morning and called my girlfriend, and the first line of the song is from that.

"When I came home the next morning I wrote it in my bedroom and recorded it. I had a different voice when I was younger, so it was different. But I started playing it again recently and people started telling me they really liked it, so I recorded it. It's been doing quite well, which is really funny because I wrote it when I was 17 - maybe I should go back to high school."

'Devils Eyes' is just another overt ilration of Guglielmino's pion for creating rather than recycling, something which is quite close to the young lad's heart.

"I'm quite proud of the fact that I'm doing something innovative," he says. "I think that's making it harder for me in Australia than it would be if I was doing what a lot of the artists who get attention in Australia do, which is emulate stuff from artists overseas.

"I mean, you can definitely hear my heroes in my music - Nick Cave and Kurt Cobain are there - but I really think that if we want to evolve as a nation we need to have Triple J play more of the innovative stuff and less of the copied stuff. A lot of the [Triple J] presenters own my records and are quite aware of my music, but they can't get it on the air because it's too 'weird'."

Edward Guglielmino plays The Troubadour ((((ACTUALLY BARSOMA)))) Monday Sep 17. Tacky [A Very Tacky] EP out now independently.

Europe

To be around a people with history and a government that really fears its people, more than its people fear it is so refreshing. ..:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Being in ..:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Berlin, and now Prague, makes you realize that Australia is so restrictive, so many y laws about nothing. Here dogs come on the train, and a smoke and a beer is permissbale for a long trip across the boarder.

Entering Germany the guard barely looked at my pport, no questions, and straight though. None of the new- McCarthyism's that you get at the American / Australian borders to see if you're a terrorist. This from a country that experienced catastrophes far more extreme and for a far longer period than America or Australia.

It seems that Europeans have seen it all, war, fascism, communism, and terrorism, but somehow it hasn't become an excuse to restrict freedom and free expressions. Being here it becomes obvious that we Australian have gotten a raw deal; our government has its hands in our pockets, and minds.  (I mean seriously every second ad in Australia is some government something).

I think that instead of modeling Australia on the United States we should emulate the European sensibility. More or less, life is short, happens, but god knows that no bureaucrat is going to prevent me from smoking a cigarette, or hold me up at the boarder, after all, we pay them with our taxes. (alteast this is the feeling I get)

Right now I am in Prague, its so ing amazing, it is a beautiful city, and you can feel its history weight down on you. I love it so much. Too much. I am falling out of love with Australia, I hope that with a change of government things might get better but if they don't. Well it might be time for a move.

I need to clean my mind.

o readers!

I am so tired, and I need to clean my mind. I feel like I need to get a scrubbing brush and scrub all the off every brain cell.

Timezones, airports, drugs, booze, life, women, junkfood, german food, languages.

Scrub them of each brain cell...

In the airport next time me a baby vommits on mum, dad and mum argue while the baby vommits more. Something to lookforward to later in life. I can see why people are so driven towards the family life...

The gigs in Berlin went really well, people came, we sold records, ect. I've decided the big move comes in 2009,  Ill come home to tour and stuff, so its not goodbye.

I've always been afraid to move out of Brisbane because of my musicing, but this year with all the travel, and reading and thinking I've done, I have decided life as a nobody in someplaces is far better than life as a somebody in others.

Its funny when you start doing something as a teenager, and then you keep doing it, and your body grows up (and brain). They say that (according to emma deans father, see last blog) some young men can't tell the difference between reality and fiction, perhaps it was at this stage of development (actually it was) that I decided I was going to be a rockstar.

I could go on Australian Idol, I could get singing lessons and go to song writing workshops, and I could go to the gym and get a sexy body (well sexier). I could clean my skin, eat well, and look like a boyband vision of beauty.

I know the formular, I think I could actually do it if I wanted to be a celebrity musician. I could re-record tacky song and sing it like a clean cut nicolback band, and cut out the ing and the cocaining. But no, not what I want to do.

Now I just want to be a great artist, I want to hang out with great musicians and artists, and live around people where I can where that on a shirt without being gay bashed, or tackled by a drunk rugby player. Most (not all) of the great artists I've met play in the courners of crap bars, and have never been on the cover of rolling stone. Their hearts are in better places than mine is now, you see ambition can be a killer force in ones life.

When I get home, I am going to lit on the couch for three days watching x-files (hopefully with jesse). I need a break and I need to scrub my messy, dirty brain.
