  • Introduction
    Introduction In January 1997, two Sydney Morning Herald journalists produced a brief account of what they perceived to be the most important rock and roll sites in Sydney.1 Their sense of the city's rock histories extended to places of local mythology well beyond popular music's production and consumption: five star hotels as frantic sites of adoration of the Beatles ensconced within; psychiatric hospitals where career paths merged with psychosis; and migrant hostels as sites of cross-cultural ambitions. The article was a rare acknowledgement of the spaces and places of performersand fans' interaction. This thesis constitutes an extended response to the article's implicit desire to recognise alternative accounts of Australian popular music connected to broader city narratives. In analysing the rock music venues of Sydney as sites of interaction between musicians, fans and government, I am principally concerned with three interrelated themes: • The social construction of live performance venues from 1955 amidst the parallel construction of the performer and fan as an 'unruly' subject; • The industrial development of live performance: the live rock venue within commercial/economic structures; and • The dialectical tension of the above in reconciling the state's desire for manageable 'cultural citizens' with broader cultural policy (support for live rock and roll within arts policies). A more detailed explication of these strands is undertaken in Chapter One, in providing a theoretical overview of relations between popular culture and the state, and specific media/cultural/popular music studies approaches to cultural practice and policy. My personal interest in the histories of live rock venues parallels an increased 1 Jon Casimir and Bruce Elder, 'Beat streets - a guide to Sydney's rock and roll history', Sydney Morning Herald, 9th January, 1997, pp.29-30.

  • Harry Clay: Career and Personal Chronology, 1865-1925
    HARRY CLAY: CAREER AND PERSONAL CHRONOLOGY, 1865-1925 From "It Only Makes Me Love You More and More (A Heart's Confession)" Courtesy of Clay Djubal Table of Contents Personal Details ................................................................................................................... 2. Miscellaneous Information ..................................................................................................... 3. Chronology ........................................................................................................... 4. Songs Known to Have Been Performed by Harry Clay ......................................................... 24. This chronology is an updated and expanded version of Appendix K, which appears in the 1998 MA thesis, "Harry Clay and Clay's Vaudeville Company, 1865-1930." Much of the information in that Appendix was drawn from the primary sources located during the course of the research undertaken during 1997 was presented primarily as an additional research aid. Many of the details are included within the body of the thesis, although some extra information which relates to Clay, but not considered necessary to the thesis itself, has also been included. This AVTA version, first published on 6 March 2012, includes details located since 1998, and serves as additional resource to the Harry Clay biography. In some instances details have been added to that biography (and can be identified by PURPLE font). NOTE: Within the "Chronology" section are addresses where Harry Clay and his family are thought to have resided each year. During the early years, when he was often known as Henry, there appear to be at least two people by the name of Henry Clay living in Sydney. As I have not yet been able to establish which one is the subject of this thesis I have included both addresses. Furthermore, it must be mentioned that the addresses given during this early period, even when only one is included, must be treated with caution, as I have been unable to prove beyond doubt that such abodes were in fact lived in by Clay.

It includes stories of individuals, families and communities living near one another and links between adjoining suburbs, regions and countries. How important were class, the economy, gender, governments, the media, race, religion and sport in the formation of ideas regarding neighbours? How have attitudes regarding a nation’s geographic neighbours determined defence, foreign, immigration, refugee and trade policies? Did new types of communication and transport from the nineteenth century onwards radically alter how neighbours and neighbourhoods were perceived? As the success of the Australian television program Neighbours shows, the theme has long been a significant component of popular culture.

[1] From the beginning of the Great War, Sydney women, mostly conservative, founded and joined Red Cross branches and sewed, knitted and raised funds for the war effort. They also worked in Voluntary Aid Detachments both locally and overseas. By 1918 the Red Cross effectively owned the story of the war effort at home.
