By the nature of technology, there has to be more, but I don't know anyone who lives there. As an example, we were not allowed to take a picture of the landscape that included the water along with identifiable landmarks. All the places in the country that developed film were required to report any such images to the king's police over a fear they could be used for invasion.

In other ways, it became more strict, but that wasn't driven by an increased grip by the government so much as the deepening Wahhabist influence.

They were a serious legit band, it's too bad in the US they got known for that one specific track. It's not even that it's a bad representation of their sound, it just blinded us to everything else. Probably because we're such ****ing puritans.

They were massive here, the outpouring of grief in the music industry when Chrissy Amphlett died was huge, from memory there was talk of a state funeral.



The great Molly Meldrum remembers
