today was just one of those day that started out way too early for anyone and it was just way too cold for me. the type of cold that no matter how many layers you put on you were still goin to be cold and the thing that sucked most bout that was the fact it was only the start of things to come.... winter has only just started - it's only goin down hill from here till sometime in april!! it was the type of cold that w/in seconds of gettin' out the door you were made aware of your nose hairs! lol
anyway w/the cold somehow brought a flood of memories of winters past and thing past and music past



say that this was the first thing that came into my mind, 




any way that over w/this is the cd/album of the day i wanted to post
Lime Spiders are an Australian punk rock band, currently consisting of Mick Blood, Tom Corben, Gerard Corben, David Sparks and Tony
The band played a number of gigs in Sydney opening for bands such as The Sunnyboys, Hoodoo Gurus and The Scientists. The line-up estabilised in 1981 with Blood (vocals), Mather (guitar), Guest (bass) and Geoff Cleary (drums), in August 1981 the band added guitarist Richard Jakimszyn. The new line-up played its debut gig at the South Cross Hotel, Sydney but by February, 1982 they had split up. Later that year, Mather suggested they get back together to try to record a single. There was a 'Battle of the Bands' competition at the Sydney's Southern Cross Hotel with the winner getting money to record a single. The competition lasted for 3 weeks and included 64 bands...the Lime Spiders (with new drummer Stephen Rawle) got into the competition only at the last minute, and in the end they won the prize, beating competitors that included The Celibate Rifles



 ok this is the scoop - i've sort of made up a best of
for these guys - love'em to bits but thought this was
the best way of givin' out a taster of them
so the tracks in the zip are

three wise men - off beethovens first
action women, just one solution, rock star, space cadet, theory of thira and n.s.u. - all off " the cave comes alive!"
25th hour and slave girl - both off " do the pop 1976 - 1987
beyond the fringe, out of control, i was alone, and mr soul - all off " headcleaner"
under my umbrella - off "under my umbrella ep/single"
test pattern - off "volatile"
