After a two year break, international touring artists The Waifs returned to the local spotlight for an amazing year back behind the mics.Their current record Sun Dirt Water rocketed into the ARIA charts at # 2 week of release and every show they played sold out, reigniting the fires that burn within Aussies for their favourite folk rockerhttp://www.thewaifs.com/news.php

  1. runobodyii says I like the word. Really like this; there's nothing like a good story and then there's those guitars and the mouth harp. Wonder if there's more.

  2. inrumford says Vermilion, also spelled vermillion, when found naturally-occurring, is an opaque orangish red pigment, used since antiquity, originally derived from the powdered mineral cinnabar. Chemically the pigment is mercuric sulfide, HgS. Like all mercury compounds it is toxic. Today, vermilion is most commonly artificially produced by reacting mercury with molten sulfur. Most naturally produced vermilion comes from cinnabar mined in China, giving rise to its alternative name of China red. As pure sources of cinnabar are rare, natural vermilion has always been extremely expensive. In the Middle Ages, vermilion was often as expensive as gilding. As of 2007 a 40 ml tube of genuine Chinese Vermilion oil paint can cost £51 (US ~$100) [1]. Quite fascinating, wouldn't you say?
