No, the subject head is not a reference to the Bette Midler ballad but I suppose it could be. I took this picture on Friday night at the Big Day Out when Rage Against the Machine took the stage. This is a view from the relatively safe confines of the industry area known as the Lizard Lounge. Aptly named? Yeah, probably. But hey, there's a bar and seats in there. Sign me up!

I for one, would not have been able to breathe down in the midst of that testosterone-fueled, Southern Cross-tattooed mob. But this scene in Sydney was more civilized than the crowd in Melbourne.

I think I'm more of a sit-in-the-grass festival person these days...
