This was a great night !!!!

My favourite was .....



Greg...........you'll have to do Forgotten Years.

I'd like to see that

Thanks Shane, we're glad you enjoyed the night.
We've been booked to play a return gig at the RSL on the 26th of this month.

the Aussie Crawl songs don't seem to be working for us, so we've gone with The Angels, Split Enz, Rose Tattoo, Sunnyboys and the Hoodoo Gurus. Add The Beatles, Cheap Trick and , of course AC/DC and we have a fairly good setlist at present.

nice to see Rose Tattoo gettin' some love!! but what about Midnight Oil???

Thanks Craig,
Check out the video posted by Shane below. There's some Midnight Oil for you!
We were jamming one night, when the Rose Tattoo riff appeared, so we kept it. ("Bad boy for love".)

Another return gig at the Mentone RSL on October 23rd.
"Halloween Night", (a week early!)

Hey now, ...bookings are starting to roll in! We must be doing something right down here.
A local Cricket club has booked us for their club functions over the next few months,
as well as being approached to play an open-air gig for a peninsula community fundraiser early next year!
NICE!!!

We've just created our official website for the band. In it's infancy, but getting there.

Unfortunatley we've had to postpone our recording plans, rehearsals etc. as Trotty has been sent to Brisbane to deal with the thousands of insurance claims expected from the aftermath of the Queensland flood disaster. We're just a smalltime band, the people of Queensland need Trottys' expertise more than we do at present.

Our lead guitarist has just released his new album. For those into surf instrumental rock, this is for you. Well worth your time to have a listen, and purchase. Plenty of Rick content, as he has just purchased a gorgeous FG 360V64.

Thanks Greg. Nice work and I really love what I can hear of "Coast."

Thanks for taking the time to have a listen Peter. I'm awaiting my copy with great anticipation.
Glenn's version of the Clapton classic "White Room" is also a great listen!
'77 Sandman have a return gig at the Moorabbin Cricket club in early March.

Great to hear you and the family enjoyed your Australian tour. LIving here is even better.
