I am putting out a call to all old managers, promoters, bands, band members, roadies and fans.
This blog is set up for one thing only.
That is to preserve the music that made Australia... a chance for the punters to relive the live music experiences they grew up with. A way of capturing that one point in time when music was at its best in this country.
We are the generation that can make a difference and do something to save those precious moments.
In a few years where will your old tapes and recordings be... landfill probably.
And that is why I created this site.
That sort of stuff MUST be preserved before it's too late.
You lived and breathed that music scene once and many still do... let others share your passion.
There are more fans and enthusiasts still out there than you may think!!!
Please contact me if you have anything... be it audio, video or photo that can be added here.
Future posts already planned will include...
more Short Story at various venues
Midnight Oil - 1982 The Pier Hotel and The Old Lion
Billy Field - 1981 Brisbane Festival Hall
The Little Heroes - 1982 Toowoomba
Mondo Rock - similcast

and there will be an odd one as it will not be an Aussie artist....
that will be The Motels Live at Sydney Entertainment Centre
Just a quick thank you for all of these. I was born in the late 70s so was too young in the 80s to have much in the way of tapes from back then, but that era has some of my favourite music. It's great to hear some rare live Aussie stuff from back then.
