• Commitment to things inspired and inspiring

  REMO General Store

  19 November 2006

  The original REMO General Store was an oasis of quality in a world awash with feculent ephemera. As a student I went there to find inspiration as much as any product. That kernel of commitment to things inspired and inspiring continues in their online presence. I go to the REMO site and feel like someone has tapped into my brain and brought together just the things that I might enjoy. Tthe epitome of the Lovemark.

  Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

  19 November 2006

  Nick’s music has been a constant since discovering it at 13. The first time I saw him live was the Coogee Bay Hotel in Sydney, late 1985, supported by Screamin Jay Hawkins and The Stems. Best - Gig - Evaahhhh. Mick Harvey is also a favourite, particularly when channelling the spirit of the late Serge Gainsborough.
