Farewell.
RIP Wi Kuki Kaa, noted Maori actor (Ngati, Utu, River Queen) - probably best known to music fans as the old fella in the Trinity Roots video for Little Things.
And RIP Ray Baretto, king of the hard hands.

... and something for all you Guns N Roses fans, a taster of the new album here...


ADDED- Happy ol uncle Hank Rollins is in doodoo with OZ authorities...

"According to News.com.au, American punk rock icon and writer Henry Rollins was reported to the National Security hotline during his recent Australian tour because of a book he was reading on a flight to Brisbane.

A furious Rollins was informed he was "nominated as a possible threat" for reading "Jihad: The Rise of Militant Islam In Central Asia", writes Kathy McCabe.

The incident happened on a flight from Auckland on the recent Big Day Out tour.

Rollins told Australian fans during his tour that he received a letter from a "nice woman" who worked "in one of those government areas that deals with anti-terrorism matters."

He posted the letter on his website.

"Please tell your Government and everyone in your office to go f*ck themselves. Baghdad's safer than my hometown and your PM is a sissy," he wrote." Source.
John Howard vs Henry Rollins - who would win that fistfight?
