Why drag it down to the level of a B&S ball MO? I knew him when he played the balls with his brother and didn't think he would ever make it past that level. The joys of country service, drinking and playing aussie rules with future celebrities.

Chad Morgan, unfortunately he passed away this year, anyone who can be there own Grandpa must be worth something.

No-one makes ypou want to rock, dance or get involved like The Angels
18
Have you heard the new cover fron tex perkins and the ladyboys?
19
Of the various bands Tex has been in, the Ladyboys I find to be a big disapointment. Bring the Cruel Sea, Beasts of Bourbon or the Combinations with Don
20
Chocolate Starfish, midnight oil, the Misfits, cold chisel, AC/DC.................oh yeah and Slim dusty :-)http://www.travelpod.com/members/bigusredus

Considering all the crap (and, let's face it, most Oz Rock IS crap!) that's been mentioned above, I count my blessings for the existence of TISM
22
Being an old fart my fav bands are Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs (in the blues band incarnation) and Chain. Oh, the Pigram Brothers are a sentimental favourite - make me think about Broome.
23
Living End, Gyroscope, Powderfinger are some Oz bands that I love.True knowledge exists in knowing that you know nothing. ...
24
Another vote for Hunters and Collectors however Angels, Oils and Paul Kelly are close behind.

#19, Tex, Don and Charlie (Sunday Morning Coming Down, great songs of misery even if a cover, JOhnny Cash did a great version, I wish I was such a deadbeat), brilliant. Oils, Hunters, Paul Kelly, Weddoes, Hoodoos, Chisel, The Angels - sob. Hard call. Can I add Choirboys to that? Rose Tattoo. Real music. I remember, back bar of the Price Albert (called the Snakepit) across from Melbourne Uni, 30 teenagers crammed in screaming 'Just one touch, and every thing will be alright, GRUNT'.And Chambers said to Barlow, we are in a foreign land and it is time to die...we will stand and we will fall...I can hear your mother call and it is a long way home

Spiderbait before black betty, from our east islands, split enz and crowded house.
27
Crowded house - one Kiwi, two Aussies. Aussie band.And Chambers said to Barlow, we are in a foreign land and it is time to die...we will stand and we will fall...I can hear your mother call and it is a long way home

IF you want to add Rock bands that no longer play, then add Noiseworks. Diviynls had some good hits but just miss out. For a long suffering pub rock band, I find it hard to believe the Radiators are still going strong but aren't we lucky the Wiggles killed the Cockroaches.
