I saw them open for the Psychedelic Furs and thought they would be HUGE! Chrissy stalked the stage like an angry schoolgirl, more Angus Young than wet dream, her lips the only thing showing of her face. The band cooked like Hell. I thought, "A star is born!".
Afterwards, every female I talked to who had seen them said some variation of this; (Insert whiny voice) "She was soooo weird!".
@SupernalOne she kicked cancer... i dont know about the rest of her health, but considering she kicked cancer... you gotta consider there is something good out there
Fantastic song, and they've nicked a bit of Lene Lovich's "Lucky Number" for good measure. I'm glad that Chrissy survived breast cancer - she's one of the few true Aussie battlers in the music biz. :-)
May ALL Wish Their sincere thoughts of Utmost Respect, Peace, Comfort n any Support Possible, to the Talent n Gift that is Chrissy Amphlett n to Her Family n Friends at this very difficult time in Chrissy's Personal journey, Our Prayers Always...Much Peace, Love N light X
I had the opportunity to speak with Chrissy at length recently and she is still as sexy and edgy as ever! She has so much to say about life even in her illness. She's truly a wise intriguing woman.
WAAAAAAY ahead of her time. The Divinyls are one of the all-time great bands. Generations of girls, from Chrissie Hynde to Alanis Morrisette and on are Chrissie Amphlett's kids!!! She rocks!
@nzoz1982 Is there a place to send emails?? I know that with other musicians who have been sick that there is a way to send messages of hope and support.
@nzoz1982 dear nz Oz, how ru? I just read ur message about chrissy, had NO idea whatsoever about her health... What can I do to help? how can I connect with her family to help, etc'? yhanx for u r kindness of sharing everyhting good and not such good news as this, hugs, Bibiana prixy
@Prixyparis if you want to help, try contacted her on the Divinyls facebook page... besides that, I really do not know what you or anybody else (other than people in the profession) could do.

Aussie music one of a few things that I love about Australia. I'm a Melbourne girl, so my point of view of the rest of Australia is somewhat indifferent. Good to see a Geelong girl (Chrissie) do well in the male dominated field of Australian rock!
heh heh Cool to see this. I remember clearly the first time I heard it was at 18 years of age driving thru Perth city as a new immigrant passenger in a car. It was on the radio it was 82. It impressed me. love your work Chrissie*
I saw them when they were in their in their prime at Bombay Rock then a few years later at the Old Fishermans Wharf where I worked and she past out on satge to much sniffin op's** love ya Chrissy true Aussie Rock Chick
chrissie, along with tex (perkins) were 2 of the best people to photograph...live on stage...always giving 200 % everytime!! absolutley love the woman! xx
So happy Chrissy is healthy again!
Bless her soul! even if she bullied me at
George St studio where her mum taught
singing. 1978ish? Little Pattie had groomed a legend
that Australia is so proud of!!
Mothers know best!
And I'm still doin' the Maroubra stomp!
