Classic quotes from the Australian street press – 6: The Go-Betweens

Yes. The Return of the Series that No One Likes and Most Feel is Rather Unnecessary and Cruel.

From The AU Review, a question to Matthew Caws of Nada Surf:

From memory you had a Go Betweens’ song on there and they’re from Melbourne, when you go to Melbourne you can go across the Go Between Bridge, they’re that much a part of Melbourne culture.

Oh wow that’s epic! I noticed that Melbourne is the best city to live in yesterday.

MORAL: No cooks, no broth.

P.S. For those wondering, The Go-Betweens aren’t from Australia at all.

P.P.S. Bonus points for working out which is the Lord Mayor in the photograph above.

P.P.P.S. If Melbourne was the best city to live in yesterday, I wonder what’s the best city to live in today?

My name is Everett True. I am a music critic. This is what I do. I criticise music. The clue is in my job description – music critic. I do not consider myself a journalist, as I do not research or report hard news. I do not consider myself a commentator as I believe that everyone should be a participant. I criticise people and in return I am not surprised if other people criticise me. It is part of the whole deal of being in the public arena. I am Everett True. Believe in me and I have power like a God. Quit believing in me and I no longer exist.
