Went to see the Buzzcocks on Saturday night at the Corner Hotel. They played enthusiastically with a good selection of old classics and the crowd (mixed, but leaning heavily towards an older set) responded in kind. The mixing however was quite substandard; I'll readily admit that the Buzzcocks are probably not the easiest band to mix to given their selective use of feedback, others seem to be able to manage. It was a bit weird listening to guys in their fifties singing/playing "Sixteen Again" or telling us that they're an "Orgasm Addict". In the next few weeks will be seeing The Church at the same venue. Must get around to writing these up for Rocknerd.
Wrote an article for the Isocracy Network which has been reprinted on Left Focus Of State Borders, Wars and Refugees. One of the key elements of the article is the argument that significant climate change can lead to climate change refugees, who are not recognised under the Convention or Protocol. Tangentially, the Prime Minister minces no words for his justified contempt of deniers in an address to the Lowy Instutite. The opposition is in complete disarray on the subject, with a split forthcoming. Denial seems more the part of factional quest for power rather than science.
Have been playing a fair bit of a RuneQuest and HeroQuest as both my current campaigns are nearing their end; will be dedicating a fair bit of the next issue of RPG Review to said games and to Glorantha in general. Greg Stafford has agreed to an interview and there will be a range of rules options for RQ such as Divine intervention, character improvement, an extended HeroQuest 2 review (yes, extended from this) and conversion notes between the two systems.
