Flippin' Yeah!

What they say about punk never dying must be true; this ain’t no ordinary punk band and this ain’t no ordinary album. Flipper, the band that even Moby once claimed to be in because he loved them so much, are back with their double album Love/Fight. Love is the first studio album to be released in 17 years, while the second disc Fight is a compilation of live tracks from over the years. To enjoy this CD and be taken back to the days of denim before it went the way of bad and angry bastards, let us know what you’d call your punk band and one of three double albums could be yours.

with your name, phone number and address to see if you can pick up yourself a one of these.

More Free goodness...

	Bob Dylan & The Band CDs: Who's Bob tonight? Canberra’s cheeky charmer Sanjiva de Silva and local legend Craig Dawson were born to be Bob Dylan, while The Lenders were born to channel The Band. Guy The Sound Guy (aka Guy Gibson, long time Canberra soundie/studio engineer) invites you to get along to Bob & The Band, a tribute to the music of Dylan and the band with the most boring name ever – The Band – who wrote some of the best songs ever. Will ‘Pete Seeger’ appear with an axe to try to stop ‘Dylan’ going electric? Find out on Saturday June 13 at 8pm at the Polish White Eagle Club, Turner. Strut in dressed as Dylan or Baez and you could win a CD. Better still, come up with a better name for The Band than they did and you could score a double pass.

	Frost / Nixon DVDs: Frosty Words Who hasn’t heard about the Watergate scandal? It seems to have lasted longer than any other presidential scandal (even the “not sexual relations” of Clinton, the unfortunate office worker Lewinsky and that blue dress). Three years after being ousted from office Nixon agreed to break his silence over the scandal in an interview with UK television presenter David Frost. Over the course of the interviews both men met their match, as viewers watched with baited breath to see what would unfold. The DVD of Frost/Nixon, directed by Ron Howard, offers a handful of extras including deleted scenes, footage from the original interviews and film from the Nixon Library. To win one of five DVDs tell us about the biggest scandal you’d never want to own up to. We won’t tell… promise.
