DALLAS FRASCA

04/07/2009 - Posted by RV in ARCHIVES, FRIENDS OF RV, PROJECTS, VIDEO

A heap of us recently headed west to Eumundi to see one of our best mates play a gig at Joes Waterhole.

Jeffy Curran plays alongside Dalla Frasca, one of the most unique and gruntiest female vocalists Australia has ever produced… If you ever get the chance to see these guys live dont hesitate to strap up your boots and get ready for some stompin’… I think I can collectively say it was one of the best nights we have ever had… If you want the doors blown off your local pub mention these 2 lunatics to the manager… The 2 of them are currently in Montreal, Canada after being selected as the sole Australian act to represent our country in the International Earth day festival… TURN IT UP!

DEADMAN SMOKING

04/06/2009 - Posted by RV in ARCHIVES, WORDS

I lost my dad to lung cancer about 10 months ago, he was the fittest, healthiest 55 yo bloke you could ever meet… Surfed religiously, worked hard and smoked since he was 10… Cancer doesn’t care who you are, it will tear you down… I watched my old man be destroyed day by day… It took his strength then his mobility, then his speech, then his life.

QUIT!… They taste like shit, they suffocate you, they rot your insides, they kill… There is NOTHING good about them. NOTHING

Dont count the days since your last smoke it’s pointless… Its a guarantee that you are timing your demise, that you will return to the filthy things… JUST QUIT!

I am no longer a smoker and it feels good…

I didnt make this site to preach but when you lose someone as close as I was to my dad you will understand… I am still fucked in the head from it… But ive quit durries so at least im not fucked everywhere else.

OFF THE SHELF

I came across a heap of old sketch books and notepads that I have been hoarding over the last 10 years… Its amusing to look back on your drawings and thoughts, most of these pictures remind me of certain times and memories from growin’ up til now.
