Book Synopsis Pig City by : Andrew Stafford
Book excerpt: From cult heroes the Saints and the Go-Betweens to national icons Powderfinger and international stars Savage Garden, Brisbane has produced more than its share of great bands. But behind the music lay a ghost city of malice and corruption.Persecuted by the Bjelke-Petersen government and its toughest enforcers &– the police &– Brisbane' s musicians, radio announcers and political activists braved ignorance, harassment and often violence to be heard.Since its first publication in 2004, Pig City has become a much-loved cult classic, providing an enduring soundtrack and history lesson for a new generation of fans and musicians alike.This edition includes a special Pig City playlist.
