There's nothing that gets us more fired up for an All Blacks Test than the Haka.Whether it's the traditional 'Ka Mate', or the new 'Kapa O Pango', watching the boys lay down the challenge to their opponents sends chills up our spines.The same can be said for the Kiwi league team, although if we had to choose the better, we'd go with the All Blacks - hands down.But there's a problem with New Zealan
Año 1975. Un grupo llamado Budgie edita un álbum de nombre "Bandolier". Suponía su quinto de estudio. Los cuatro primeros habían supuesto el despegue y consolidación de esta banda formada en Cardiff en 1967. Pero mientras que otros grupos conseguían grandes éxitos de crítica y de público, Budgie se ve relegado a un papel secundario, injusto, creo, dada la inmensa calidad de la banda. Afor
Perhaps I am weird and out of sync with the new century. Perhaps I have long repressed homosexual urges but please correct me if I am wrong here. But Does Mr D Beckham of Los Angeles and Hertfordshire appear normal to you? From Goldenballs to ...

Recently the security forces at Ireland's Portlaoise maximum-security prison did a sweep. They confiscated a lot of the usual stuff--some drugs, an alcohol distilling hooch and a budgie.It seems the budgie got there in a Goodie.The reporter explained it this way:"A budgie, believed to have been smuggled into the jail by a female visitor who concealed the bird internally in her body, is understood to have belonged to a prisoner serving a long-term jail sentence" What he is trying to say is a lady stuck a parrot in her Coochie, and snuck the bird in so her bf could have a little pet.I think that's sweet. But I would have loved to see the girl trying to keep a straight face with a tickler like that. And it must have been one roomy Coochie. Nonetheless I don't know who I feel more sorry for-- the lady or the bird.I suppose this is another case of a lowlife creep with an awesome girlfriend.But the story does give a whole new meaning to a bird in the bush.
Budgie - Never Turn Your Back on a Friend(1973)320kbps Originally released in 1973 on MCA, Budgie's third record, Never Turn Your Back on a Friend, was another slab of the band's signature plodding metal sound. Although they were never more than a cult band in the U.S., Budgie's popularity flourished in their native England, yet their influence was eventually felt by many notable American bands (Metallica, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, etc.). The mammoth riffs created by guitarist Tony Bourge are definitely on par with Black Sabbath riff master Tony Iommi, while vocalist/bassist Burke Shelley's voice is a cross between Robert Plant and early Geddy Lee. Drummers came and went (this would be original member Ray Phillips' last recording), but you'd never guess there would be a defection soon, judging from the tightness and interplay displayed on this album. One of their best-known tracks, "Breadfan" (later covered by Metallica), kicks off the album with rapid, almost speed metal, w
