Music
Music is one of the things I really do enjoy, and this page is devoted to sharing my favourite bands both local and international. The bands that I have listed here are in two broad categories:
Local Bands
Local/Australian bands are those that I consider "home-grown". You may have never heard of some of these bands before but I believe that healthy support of the bands in your local area supports the music industry as a whole. For without the support that bands around the world recieved when they were starting out, we would never have some of the bands and their music today (except for those manufactured bands - think of it... The only music would be from boy-bands. Noooo!).
Follow the links below for a bit a home-grown groove:

- Powderfinger
- Regurgitator
- Savage Garden
- Resin Dogs
International Bands
The International band list are some of my favourite groups from outside Australia. Most of these bands you probably would have heard of. As such, I will be giving my personal views and opinions and not bore you will what you could read on the inside of a CD cover.
