80s 90s Brisbane
Clubs Gigs Events Ephemera
The Cane Toad Times was one of Brisbane’s satirical publications from the late 1970s. It was revived again between 1983–1990. It focused on political comment and humour. The State Library of Queensland held an exhibition on the iconic mag in 2012 and you can read a little more about the state of the State of Qld in those days, by clicking here.
Celibate Rifles ‘Back in the Red’
This Brisbane institution is still going. Listen live from here – http://www.4zzzfm.org.au/. I was an announcer for about six years from 1986-1992. The studio and library photos are c.1988 (copyright R.Smalley).
I joined up with others to put on this show.
