Spinner.com is reporting that Nick Cave has plans to give back to his hometown of Victoria, by giving them a semi-nude statue of himself in which he is riding a horse.  It doesn’t detail which part of Nick would be nude, but if he is riding a horse we hope for his sake that he is wearing pants.  In most cases this would be completely bizarre but this is Nick Cave, so we will accept it as normal. Apparently Nick is looking for donations toward the project which could cost at least $50k.
