Youd be better off in Sydney for the rockabilly lifestyle. Weasel and I are part of the scene, but its fairly small and very niched.

Welcome to the Madness regardless. :D

I was just about to ask the same thing!:D

[Merlyn]

Rock and Roll Hill Billies, a culture born in the united states from the 50s and 60s revival scene. Hot Rods, All different sorts of bike (ask Weasel that question) Big Hair, Leather Jackets, Rock and Roll and a whole lot of like minded people.

If thats not enough for you, check out wiki, or google it! ;)

[Merlyn]

P.S Its the only good thing to come out of America, but they do it well.

Psychobilly on the other hand has its roots in Europe as far as i know.

[slip]

I'm not into either 'scene', but both Rockabilly and Psychobilly are top genres of music. Good shit.

Which one do you play Merlyn?

And really? Aerial Ping Pong? Not only is it old it doesn't even make any sense.

Anyone for some apples and oranges?

I played real football, aka Soccer.

AFL annoys me, simple as that. I was exposed to so much AFL loving while living in Melbourne it made me physically ill. I went to a Bulldogs and West Coast game and vomited all over the stands.

Are you sure that was from the football? I normally vomit when I see West Coast as well.
