Review: Queensland Theatre presents Return to the Dirt
As much as I enjoy attending the QPAC, it was a real treat getting to attend Queensland Theatre this evening. Sitting under the train lines in the semi-industrial end of South Bank, the theatre is surrounded by beautiful graffiti on the walls outside, and it makes me feel like I am part of something special as I sit inside the intimate theatre space.

Every Time I Die: Radical
<p><span><span>- What happens when an author, a bass player, a graphic artist, a goose, and a pro-wrestler walk into a bar? Honestly, Every Time I Die’s extra-curricular activities have made the members sound like the set up to a bad punchline your dad would tell after consuming a few glass pies. Between an already chockas discography and countless tour and studio diaries, you could consume a full twenty-four hours of the quintet’s content with more to keep you going.
