7 down, 5 to go – 2011 Calendar

I'm working towards a dozen postcards for our limited edition 2011 PostCards from Brisbane

desk calendar. The calendar will have cool dual purposes - at the end of each month the artwork can be torn off and used as a postcard.

Seven down five to go. Is it just me, or is Brissy a bit low on icons?

POSTCARDS FROM BRISBANE

Harrisson is honouring our hometown by producing a new series, PostCards from Brisbane.

Sick of the naff 'normal' postcards, we thought our city and its visitors would like a creative take on Brissy's icons. The first 3 fun and colourful cards in the series are Jolly, HQ and True Story by Clare Treston.

We hope you get into a bit of community pride and support the PostCards from Brisbane series (although we admit the one of the Koala riding a surfboard is hard to beat).

CORTEO,CIRQUE DU SOLEIL

Juxtaposing the large with the small, the ridiculous with the tragic and the magic of perfection with the charm of imperfection, the show highlights the strength and fragility of the clown, as well as his wisdom and kindness, to illustrate the portion of humanity that is within each of us. The music, by turns lyrical and playful, carries Corteo through a timeless celebration in which illusion teases reality.

Hohner’s collaboration with Bob Dylan naturally lead to the development of a next-generation harmonica.“It was not easy to achieve the standard that Bob Dylan represents. Among other things, we gold-plated the reed plate in order to achieve the specific sonic requirements.”

BEFORE THEY MAKE ME RUN

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

Worked in bars and sideshows along the twilight zone
Only a crowd can make you feel so alone
And it really hit home
Booze and pills and powders, you can choose your medicine
Well it's another goodbye to another good friend

After all is said and done
Gotta move while it's still fun
Let me walk before they make me run
After all is said and done
I gotta move, it's still fun
I'm gonna walk before they make me run

Watched the taillights fading, there ain't a dry eye in the house
They're laughing and singing
Started dancing and drinking as I left town
Gonna find my way to heaven, `cause I did my time in hell
I wasn't looking too good but I was feeling real well
