The Brisbane Hard Ons

- BEFORE THE HARD-ONS EXISTED THERE WAS THE HARD ONS -


Brisbane produced some of the grittiest and roughest punk bands to come out of Australia back in the day. (I would say you could thank the Joh Bjelkie Peterson led National/Liberal coalition government for that)

So check out a bit of forgotten Brisbane music history with the original Hardons!!

Thanks to Mark for sending over this great selection of old Brisbane music memorabilia.
