Triple J Hottest 100 of 2017

My votes:
  • Methyl Ethel - Ubu (#4)
  • Phoenix - J-BOY (no entry)
  • PNAU - Go Bang (#7)
  • The xx - I Dare You (no entry)
  • Ball Park Music - Exactly How You Are (#18)
  • Charli XCX - Boys (#60)
  • Franz Ferdinand - Always Ascending (no entry)
  • K.Flay - High Enough (no entry)
  • Lorde - Green Light (#6)

Would have loved to fit in:

  • Spoon - Hot Thoughts (no entry)
  • Gang Of Youths - Let Me Down Easy (#2)
  • The National - The Day I Die (no entry)
  • Peking Duk & AlunaGeorge - Fake Magic (#12)
  • RL Grime - Stay For It (no entry)
I think either a Lorde track or Kendrick Lamar will win.

Update: #1 was Humble by Kedrik Lamar, I think that's a really good one to represent 2017. So glad Ubu got so high! After Go Bang got in Andrew and I had a big debate about whether or not Ubu would get in at all, I was disappointed and skeptical but Andrew was absolutely sure it would make it and he was right! Go Methyl Ethel!

Neville's 70th B'day Down South

Last weekend Andrew's family went down south to Dunsborough to celebrate Neville's 70th birthday.

A beautiful house with beach views, Vasse Felix, Eagle Bay, SUP at Meelup beach, Cullen, and there were even bunnies on the running track by the beach. It was "officially paradise"!
