Why didn't they just name the band "Nick on Heroin and Some Guys" ?

[nzoz1981]

@dancefloorkid so, in other words you know fuck all about Rowland S. Howard, Tracey Pew and Mick Harvey and their individual talents and contributions. Pretty dumb comment.

[nzoz1981]

@mothbits If you think drug-fucked 23 year old guys running around in nappies is sexy than knock yourself out...

[nzoz1981]

@danielnelles Thanx for the word... I've already seen it... I just hope the DVD has extra's with the entire interviews.

[nzoz1981]

@77AWAKE77 I set the DVD up and got it recorded... I liked it, very good documentary... however, there was a lot more revealing stuff on the first trailer that Ghost Pictures posted on YouTube a couple of years ago. I hope the DVD release includes the entire interviews.

So much love for The birthday party, Crime and the City Solution, The Bad Seeds and These Immortal Souls!!! R.I.P R. Howard xxx

[77AWAKE77]

I forgot how much I loved this music. I need another dose of it. I dont listen to much popular music now there is no soul, it is mass produced garbage. This is gold.

[77AWAKE77]

@nzoz1981 Go to ABC iview. It might be saved on there. Otherwise maybe someone will record and upload here. Have you got someone that can record it for you.

@dancefloorkid Also, this is awesome!

[jdkynard]

@dancefloorkid HAhahaha! I was thinking almost the exact same thing.

[GabloFX2]

If we launches this into space. Aliens would shit themselves they would never dare touch earth.
