Skatt Bros.
The Skatt Bros. (or Skatt Brothers) were a band from Los Angeles, formed in 1979.

Strange Spirits
''Strange Spirits'' is a 1979 album by the Skatt Brothers. Casablanca supported this release with a single release in the U.S. of "Dancing' for the Man" backed with "Walk the Night." A video was also created by Polygram Records (Australia) for "Life at the Outpost" which was deemed a total misrepresentation of the Skatt Bros, as it contained none of the band members, but actors performing choreography. Nonetheless, the song was released as a single in other markets, notably in Australia where it was backed with "Midnight Companion", and reached gold record status. The KISS connections continue on this album, apart from the obvious Sean Delaney one: a KISS pinball machine features on the album's rear cover photograph. Release details In 2010, European music company Premium Series reissued ''Strange Spirits'' with a bonus track: ''Walk the Night (12 inch version)''. The reissue claimed to be "24 Bit Digitally Remastered From Original Master Tapes". Track listing 2010 bonus trac ...

North Queensland Stadium
North Queensland Stadium, commercially known as Queensland Country Bank Stadium, is a multi-purpose stadium in South Townsville, Queensland, Australia, primarily used for rugby league. History As part of Australia's 2022 FIFA World Cup bid in 2010, an analysis of Townsville's existing Willows Sports Complex suggested a total redevelopment of the site and outlined key issues including the growth rate of the surrounding suburbs and incompatibility of hosting major events in an expanding residential centre, with limited public transport access. In August 2011, the Bligh Government released a concept design for a new inner-city $185 million sporting stadium in South Townsville. The concept plan identified a 17.28 hectare parcel of land bounded by Saunders St and owned by QR National, as the ideal site for a new international standard stadium. The 30,000-seat stadium would include 100 open-air corporate boxes and 25 enclosed corporate suites. North Queensland Cowboys cha ...
