  1. 100% correct with Good Times. Ah Jesus, we need to go for a pint. Noiseworks are fab also. Another was the Hoodoo Gurus who I shared a flight with from Brisbane to Cairns that my liver regrets to this day.
  2. Not sure if you have heard of Cold Chisel but they became Oz legends. Worked with their lead singer Jimmy Barnes for a while in Port Adelaide. Was at one of their first gigs at the Flamingo Ballroom in Christies Beach. Next time was as support to Peter Frampton on his Comes Alive tour.
  3. Love Icehouse but never seen them. Remember them early days when they were known as Flowers. Watch them a lot on YouTube also. Great Southern Land is an all time classic. Did you give me a wave at Wembley ?
  4. Live Baby Live is a DVD I never tire of. Kirk Pengilly always says he regrets they didn't include Don't Change on the CD / DVD. Try and find the YouTube accoustic version as it really is amazing and very different. Also, saw AC/DC in the same pub around the same time. The good old days. Found it !!
  5. Great track. One of my absolute favourites. There is a version on YouTube that they did which is accoustic after MH died and is fantastic. Went to see a band in the Largs Hotel, Adelaide back in the late 70's. They were called The Farriss Brothers. Went out on the batter with them after the show. They later changed their name to INXS. My claim to fame !!
  6. Listening to them as you write. They were popular in Australia when I lived there. They are doing the Cognac festival here in France this year it seems.
  7. I for one am rapidly falling out of love with football and the bollox it creates
  8. I think the way forward is that you invite us all around to your place one day to sample your creations so we can give you an unbiased and collective opinion.
  9. Done but doubt i've added anything intelligent. Either way, good luck.
  10. Thank you Sir Phants, your kindness without doubt exceeds you good looks. I thought it was a game played while polishing the furniture.
  11. Hi Alex Just for old & almost fossilized fans like myself please can you explain what Pledgeball is.
  12. Condensed Version Sheffield Wednesday: They boast one of the most unusual names in English football, thanks to their Wednesday. Quite simply, the name goes back to when it was originally a cricket club that used to play their games on that day of the week. 1 all draw COYR
  13. The only time i saw Gary Sobers was at an Ike & Tina Turner concert in Adelaide
  14. Always sad to hear of clubs like this in the poop. Hope they can work something out.
  15. Those I know at Millwall all think it's a backward step
  16. Remember having a beer with Richard Hadlee in a pub in Nelson, NZ a good few years back. Nice guy. The whole day was memorable though with the Aussie & NZ teams all in the bar at the same time.
  17. We lose games we should win
  18. I knew a girl with the same problem. Her name was Eileen. Also had a friend in Oz who was a Policeman. His nickname was SCUD because if he was having a bad time it was going to be "Some C***s Unlucky Day"
  19. I have a T Shirt with exactly this on it
