with the grand final entertainment announcement today that Barnesy is playing... khe sanh is not a rock anthem, but just a garbage bogan song.
LeeToRainesToRoach said:Not a bad effort for a first single. Don Walker is Australia’s Bob Dylan.
TigerForce said:Yep. Great songwriter.

Tigertool said:This is my most hated song. Absolutely terrible song. They've started playing it at some nightclubs now too, and it ruins my night.

Had to laugh when Moonee Valley on Cox Plate Day pulled out his microphone plug as he was literally scaring the horses.

We'll be riding on the horses, yeah
Way up in the sky, little darlin'
And if you fall I'll pick you up, pick you up

If homeless people really didn't want to be homeless, they could choose to not be.
Melbourne have an abundance of homeless people, and IMO they are homeless because they don't want to leave the city.
Newstart with rent assistance could give them $595p/f. A liveable unit in Moe (Sorry Moe people) is as cheap as $270p/f.
That could leave $650p/m left over for utitlies. Could assume:
Gas: $100p/m
Electricity $100p/m
Food: $300p/m
Surplus: $150p/m
If they find someone else who will live with them then they could be living semi comfortably.
Not easy, but better than sleeping under a bridge.
