| Ben Coady is the epitome of what Oldies call a hippy. He is five foot six inches tall, has green eyes and 18 inch long brown hair. He wears a ragged beard and moustache liberally sprinkled with colonies of lice and nits. He loves surfing the big tubes when he is not downing a cold one or blowing a joint with his equally unkempt mates. He has a knack for getting into all sorts of strife and usually comes out of it by the skin of his smoke-stained teeth. He spent eight years in jail for a diamond heist. Set in the 1970s when petrol was leaded and cell-fones weren’t even a dream, The Can was written while Ben was jail. It tells the story of how he came to be there, following a series of crazy, hippy, larrikin events with his equally crazy mates, that will keep you incredulous and laughing… A chance for you to get away from the PC and know what it was like 40 years ago on the NSW Nimbin-vego north coast. |
