Purplehazes comment from 3 yrs back sums it up!This modern lot came together quickly to the rescue of the wave victims & they are to be commended. But,if you are older like me and remember the 79 Rocktoberfest show you know how good the two Hammond sisters were ,back then at holding the vocals together. They did a letter-perfect vocal harmony-the glue in the song.Its on YT> Go and have a look and listen & enjoy!!!
Davey Lane on guitar. How fucking good is that man! Everyone else is amazing too, but noone seems to have mentioned the guitarist from the greatest band in Australia in the posts that I have so far read.
and also i hate it how when they get to the guitar solo the director goes...ok lets get some abstract shots of the crown and the bass player...and just ignore the person performing...they dont do that when the singer is doin their thing...its like if someone sang to you and you went...hey look a squirrel! ...oh no im still listening...continue...ok vent done now
i think its the bass player whos from dallas crane...but i do know at one point they switched him with the guy from jet for some reason...but i cant tell here...it looks kinda like the dallas crane guy
Agree with the comments below.If I was there I would have been doin back flip 10' of the ground.Awesome that these muso's paid homage to one of the best Aussie songs ever.
What moron got those chicks to sing the backing? That just absolutely fucked that song. Totally. Completely. Jesus christ what a waste. The rest was so good too.
yeah chris and davey lane agreed that they would share the guitarist roles, with chris playing lead on part 1 and davey playing rhythm, and then davey on lead and chris on rhythm for part 3
waht's amazing is that it took 3 singers of great talent to even cover one signers work, and he was probably drunk when he sung it, that is the whole reason the song was sung by steavie wright, his brother wanted him to geet back into the music scene so he could make money and turn his life around, poor bugger r.i.p stevie great song though
I worked on this show and in my brief 12 years in this industry it was probably the best performance I have seen by any band ! Dunny
