๐ค Vale Rob Hirst (1955โ2026) ๐ค
ARIA is deeply saddened by the passing of Rob Hirst: drummer, songwriter, founding member of Midnight Oil, and one of the most influential figures in Australian music.
As the rhythmic backbone of Midnight Oil, Rob helped create a body of work that reshaped Australian rock and carried our stories to the world. Across their career, Midnight Oil have been recognised with 11 ARIA Awards, a testament to their cultural impact and musical excellence.
In 2006, Rob was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame as part of Midnight Oil, cementing his place among the most important artists in our nationโs music history.
Beyond the awards, Rob stood for integrity, activism and collaboration, using music as a force for change and connection. His influence continues to echo through generations of Australian artists.
Our heartfelt condolences go to Robโs family, bandmates and all who were moved by his music.

@FishChips1@A_Mendelawitz@cooltechtipz The problem with heaps of players being giants is that they all play defense too. It's a lot tougher than "run at the rim and drop it through the hoop"
@FishChips1@A_Mendelawitz@cooltechtipz The highest career PPG average in NBA history is 30.12 and it belongs to Michael Jordan. There wouldn't be an NBA by that metric
