THEME FOR THE DEVONSHIRE STREET TUNNEL: Dust 4 Eyes.

Something to drop before going out tonight. A bit more of a personal connection this one, after the Mixer For Hire effort that was the crunk mix.

A 100% Aussie effort apart from an NZ ring in (What would an Australian mix be without one?

Walking from the train down the Devonshire Street tunnel is part of my life. Not a special part, not the worst part, but a part of my daily routine. At Central Station I walk from the train, head through the ticket gates at the southern end of the station (sometimes even with a valid ticket) and veer right - just like a few thousand other people every day.

Hilltop Hoods - All Stations
"On the way home . . ."
Just before you get to the actual tunnel there are a couple of junk food shops. "The Best Bacon and Eggs in Sydney," one of the shops boasts - inaccurately.

You can't get scallops though. You need to go to the other side of the station for that.

The Herd - Scallops
"Trusted trains departed . . ."
I find myself often walking against the tide. As I walk west though the tunnel, the masses are going east and vice versa. They head towards me like a wave - A surge flowing through an old vein.

What are they thinking? Some are nervous; some will be famous for repeating themselves. Some are second-guessing your every move, some will never learn, and some just need to get over it.

Stellar* - Nerve and Consequence
"When will I learn to just play the game?/When will I learn it's only a name?"
Once you reach the west-end of the tunnel you reach Henry Deane Plaza where there is a bar. You see people congregating there on a Friday afternoon getting an early start on their Friday night. The mood is relaxed and it a great temptation to swing over there.

Resin Dogs - Daily Trouble
If you make it past the bar you are at UTS and the Tech. Sydney University is also not too far away down the road. That means that there are lots of students about.
Where there are students there are campaigners and protesters. What are they protesting today?

Space - Eye Spiral
"Politicians lining up . . . Black hearted killer, cold blood swiller."
The beggars, blind buskers, beat boxers and bastards who are in my way - along with everyone else - make up what the tunnel is to me. Even when the tunnel is empty all these memories are still with me.

Tzu - Train Song
"Let's savour our travel."
The tunnel goes underneath Broadway. As the night becomes later, the revheads come out to fill this street.

Downsyde - Street Machines
"Thoughts filled with sin I'm a speed freak."
That's the Devonshire Street Tunnel - A part of the Sydney public transportation system. Is it a great system? Is it even a good one?

Well it's the system that I live with.

Good Buddha - The System
"Sydney's got the system.You can put it to the test."
