Ollie Olsen, used to work in a record store called 'Collectors Corner' on Swanston St Melbourne circa 1989. Quiet guy, hippy looking. He would come to my fathers cafe on his lunch breaks, 3 doors up just like a normal customer. I only learnt he was in Max Q through friends in high school who would talk about this 'new band'. When i asked Ollie next time i saw him, he just smiled and nodded. No rockstar reply or big noteing himself. That was Ollie. Pity, they dont make music like this anymore.
my parents were frequent attendees at the Tiger Lounge and the Crystal Ballroom. They knew the 'stars' of the scene and supplied/used junk with many of them. They are now the 'good corporate workers' - conservative and tight lipped about this period. I can't get them to watch this documentary and they refuse to have Rowland S. Howard, B-day Party and Nick Cave, played at hearing level. If it wasn't for this documentary, I wouldn't have what found out my parents looked like in 1979/80. Thanx
Na m8 can't forget alannah :-P Yep, Stuart's looking good for sure but I'd rather bury my face in her tits than in his mo atm. Will see how I feel after the gig at the lansdowne tho!
forget allanah hill...how hot does stuart grant look?! that mo!!! oh, and if yr in sydney, the beef tornadoes will be doing their annual bollocks gig, where they play the legendary sex pistols' album in its entirety, from holidays in the sun to emi. lansdowne hotel, sat. aug 8, 9 pm sharp. free!

[This was the band with Sam Sejavka & Mick Lewis on which Dogs in Space was based] It's a one off show with special guests Ollie Olsen, Hugo Race, Steve Kilbey, Brian Hooper, Sean Kelly, Nick Barker, David Bridie & Greg Fleet.

Good to see Rowland again.
