Funeral service for Claude Nicolas Fowler, age 85 years, of No. Just came across this post doing some research for our band. I then moved to Rockhampton and was so thrilled to learn they were going to play there with Sherbet as back-up. I may have to rewrite the post now and include Doc I was lucky enough to see the Angels supporting David Bowie at the Sydney Showground in November 1978 – they were awesome! I was thirteen years old and my family was walking through the gardens near the Myer Music Bowl, in Melbourne. We are Dead Singer Band/Lost legends showcase. I liked the ‘hooks, but wasn’t mad over them. That kick at the beginning of ‘April Sun in Cuba’ got me every time. It just wouldn’t be the same.I attended a Push Push / Dance Exponents gig, in Christchurch, the day after Steve Gilpin died and Mikey Havoc put a candle on stage and dedicated the night to the memory of Steve.

(See what I did there? His gravestone is now on the National Trust list of heritage places and his gravesite is reportedly one of the most visited graves in Australia.Born: 7 September 1953 (he would have been 60 today – happy birthday, Marc!) It was on a Sunday night and during continuous torrential rain the festival was being threatened to be shut down. I know when I hear their music, they certainly are! I wonder where he is today … ?So you have good taste, too, Suzanne! I then saw JPY, TMG and a few others live on the floating barge moored off Milsons Point at what was probably an Australia Day concert in the mid-to-late 1970s. I still often look up info about Shirl and the ‘hooks – there’s no doubt he was one of our great star frontmen.Stevie Wright needs to be added too Jenny ……legend of Aussie rockThanks for the interest, everyone, and I’m sure our dear departed rockers thank you, too. My greatest memory of Jon English performing a show was at the 1984 Narara Music Festival. I was lucky enough to stay in Australia for part of 1989 and most of 1989.That’s a nice memory, Thom – I’ve heard Ted was a pretty decent guy, so it’s great to hear it confirmed by someone else, from so far away. He came out on stage in hammering rain and performed incredibly. Graeme ‘Shirley’ Strachan Lead singer of Skyhooks. But granted, he really was a mover and a shaker (all puns intended) in helping develop the Aussie music scene.

Thanks Mick, another band to add to my 70s playlist. Whatever happened to? Teds brother steve’ still plays gigs at a lot of venues’ ted was a legend as is the others’ but steve who is a mate’ looks similar and plays the same style as ted used to. We pay homage and tribute to wonderful artists like these who we have sadly lost and have shaped Aussie music and we think it’s important that they are never forgotten. He was an awesome chap with no ego. Rest in peace Ted, I’ll miss you greatly.I saw Mi Sex at St George Leagues Club during the 80s For some unknown reason there was only about 20 people in the audience. But then Garth Porter came on … aaaahhh! Mind you, I can see the attraction with Ted. And you know what, Michelle? and sad to hear he’s been joined just recently by Kevin Stanton.
