80s Musical Advice of the Week

In lieu of actually posting anything of semi-interest for the past 3 months (or arguably, ever), this filler post comprises some wonderful life advice from 80s Australian rock band, Dragon. A band with such career highlights as calling a Texan audience "faggots" after being pelted off stage, something I'm sure everyone wanted to do at some stage of their lives.

They also bought drugs off Matthew Newton. Subsequently, (possibly as a direct result of?) half of the band died.

Anyway, considering the whole seasonal change (and the free extra bonus hour of sleep debt I get from Daylight Savings going away), this piece of pertinent advice may save you being ill or otherwise getting the Black Plague, which was still a real threat during the 80s when this some was released. Without further pointless worderizing, Rain by Dragon:

Don't you go out in the rain

Don't go out in the pouring rain

If you go out in the rain, we'll never have that time again

Truly, truly wise words. I'm so inspired by them that when I grow up, I want to be a mullet-wearing, sunglasses-clad keyboardist who plays all of like 5 notes in an entire song and plays them with such gusto!
