INXS before Michael Hutchence hung himself on a doorknob while in a drug induced and drunken state in a Sydney hotel while wanking or whatever he did.

technically, this is on their 1981 LP, but it was released as a single in 1980



1980 Aus music didn't get all the way over here, but by ~1982 it was hitting hard. my 2nd concert i attended was INXS shabooh shobaah tour in ~1982, small club venue, maybe 100 people. hutchence ate a rose on stage, i thought it was pretty cool.

i'm pretty sure they were my intro to hard rock, my school friend Mark W. got me into them ~1975/76 ish that TNT LP killed it for me. i don't recall too many of my friend's names from 1975 but i remember the one that introduced me to ac/dc. anyway. off topic.

This was released in the 70's but it made it's way back into the charts during Summer 1980 and again in 1982.

It was filmed down Swanston Street, the main street in Melbourne.

I had the reverse experience, I was into AC/DC and someone introduced me to Kiss - The Destroyer album. I think I wore the fucking track out on Detroit Rock City.

We all thought Split Enz were a pack of poofters, but they went on to Crowded House and made big bucks

you'll prolly think i'm full of shit but i segued from ac/dc to kiss with destroyer. those first 2 AC/DC Lps still resonant with me though, more than anything they've done since, even though they've always been huge and cranking out killer rock. prolly more than any kiss song too even.

it's always struck me as an interesting transition, the no frills ac/dc compared to the over the top kiss.

Darryl Cotton was also a bit of a poof, but you had to pretend you liked him to get in with the chicks.

Kiss were fucking huge here. The MCG was the venue for their concert here when I was 13. When my parents expire all the photos of me going to that concert are going in the fire.

This was 1980



Norman Gunston released a funny track picking on the people going to that concert in 1980

Dugites 1980. The first Aussie band to own a Fairlight CMI (which for music nerds was the ultimate sampling synth of the 80s)

My mates considered this lot poofters also, but had to pretend to like em for the girls.

Air Supply were the biggest grossing Aussie band in the early 80s - go figure

Why does music suck so hard these days?

No one can sing, no one has a distinctive voice, no one can play their instruments. WTF?

Dunno how this got in the charts in November 1980 but interesting trivia is that I rooted a girl who rooted a guy who used to root the lead singer [Apologies to TISM]

The last big Aussie [ok NZ if you must but they came here because NZ sucked in the 80s] hit of 1980.

Split Enz became Crowded House the rest was history.
