Some people are plumbers, truck drivers, auto mechanics etc... Why the hell didn't my parents by me a guitar when I was a kid. Music would be a cool gig.
Ha!!..Guns & Roses??..They did pinch stuff from the Tatts..and Pete Wells could outplay that gnome 'Slash' any day..Tatta always 'delivered'..G&R were pretty fukd up,from what I am told..A lot of Aussie Bands were better than the ones they Supported...the Angels & Ray Davies and the Kinks..He treated them like crap..coz they were better..Our Bands slogged it out..no X-Factor,Scar Search,etc back then..KOTS were a great band.in my opinion..
@witchyliLL23 Even Slash would concede that Pete Wells kicked his arse.How many bands were asked to reform to play on the same bill as G`n`R at their peak when bands were scrambling to play with them?
I did not know, that this song was around in publ circl.., nice to see the magic
Maybe Tom Boy next? I have been know to end a DJ set with the cry of :( Nothiiiiiiiing aaaaat aaaaaalll, at 06 in t morn. Only because they HAVE to learn about you guys ;-)

Amazing song... So bought their first 2 albums off of ebay when I heard this... I first heard this song in an old episode of Home And Away - Episode 358 (i think) playing in at scene in the Bayside Diner... Had to check it out!! HELL YES !!!
GAWD DAMN!!! Man, is it good to hear this song again! Wow, these guys were so good. A buddy of mine way back in the day recommended the debut album and I loved it. I still have the album, just haven't played in it in a long time.
Yet another awesome Aussie band !!! Got both albums when they came out !!!
I believe they gotten kicked off the Guns n Roses tour coz Jeffery Hoard slagged Axl Rose off saying he nicked a load of his ideas from Rose Tattoo !!
@JohnnyCocksnott - There's four albums out now, the 3rd was the brillant RESURRECTION and the 4th just released is the raw and raucous DADDY WAS A HOBO MAN. Check out their new website at .....
.....thekingsofthesunband....... or see my channel uploads for new songs
I don't know what exactly happened to these guys, they came out in '88 I believe it was, there wasn't much good going on otherwise except for g'n'r and for whatever reason they didn't really make it huge. I bought the CD immediately upon hearing this single and loved the whole disc start to finish and everyone of my friends did too. It's funny how the ball bounces sometimes but glad to see the video again, the power of the internet eh?
well said they did miss out and it worries the same will happen to airbourne another band that is doing well in europe but not here where they should have the support of australia have a listen to (running wild by airbourne ) what a brilliant song
i was talking to jeff hoad recently they grew up near me at a place called greenmount just outside toowoomba the new band they got going now the rich and famous sound pretty good as well ,there was alot more to the GNR story than most people know its just ashame australia didn't embrace kings of the sun like we should have there sound was brilliant
@fatjam71 - the music buying public in australia totally blew it with these guys, the best band of their ilk anywhere in the world at the time and even now in their current guise - the hoads, including their gorgeous sis, are talented beyond most peoples conception and when you combine that with self belief you never let yourself get walked over or have some no talent bum seppo record executive try and prostitute your vision - read em and weep australia and america - you missed out . . . . Dog.
@DMSProduktions . . . cheers buddy, a little biased as they are dear friends but they were, objectively, the shit !!! Got to play with Clifforis for a glorious 18 months in Collective Dogma, an eclectic, freakshow covers outfit, even that brief flirtation is one of the highlights of my near 30 year singing career. It's shameless plug, but if you are bored senseless check out Dexter Pendleton's Trainwreck "Last Chance' . . . yeah, it's me and the big bloke on the left knows the lads well also.
i saw them open for GNR in sydney, axel kicked them off stage by pulling the plug on their show, i think Axl heard the singer was dissing GNR, btw the singer brown eyed the crowd, just a fucking ugly arse hole
Hey ya all faithful fans, if you would like to connect, touch base, & keep up to date with Clifford Hoad Kings of the Sun/ The Rich and Famous, he now, has his own Facebook page up.

Another good band that fell by the wayside or through the cracks. Yes, in the late 80's/ early 90's rock was fun and so was MTV for that matter,

I love this song; they supported Kiss when this album came out, and they stood watching Kiss afterwards near me! I very much fancied the lead singer!
