G'Day Nzoz,

Love your work as my 10 year old does.As a life long Angels FAN, can you tell me what is the meaning of 17,28,59. I've always wondered. Cheers

LOVE IT!!!!!

It comes so much great music from Australia which the rest of the world never heard of!

[nzoz1978]

@strixq

Most of the popular Aussie bands were mere contenders for international success. They were tried and tested and even heavily promoted. However, they would disappear from view after a few years and spend the rest of their careers catering to their own home audiences. There are Americans and Canadians who remember this band, from around 30 years ago.

They had the talent, but not the patience.

How the times have changed, in 1978 we were getting shit faced at Maroubra Seals, or Selinas, or the Stage Door, beer was $1 admission was $2, the angels the oils and a host more rocked my world, one ounce of dope was $30 and lasted a week.

NOW, I garden, work in a sensible job, happily married and go on cruise ships for holidays. hahahah!
