I'm pleased to see that posters on this thread see it as unnecessary to spell his name correctly. This is about what the thing deserved.

Just saw a 60 minutes ad, he has done an interview with them in the last few weeks apparently admits to 4 unsolved murders.
Bit of a theme happening there, he murdered people and she murdered music.The final Chopper Read interview screens 8.10pm tonight on 60 Minutes. They also have a Dolly Parton thing happening in the same program - so either story could appear first.
Sammy the turk was a bit of a let down, fairly widely acknowledged he did that one. Not sure I believed the last one and going by Wiki the dates for his Jacko tour don't match up.
Wonder if Chopper's last claimed kill was actually a joke to force the police in to digging up Casino oval or atleast wasting police resources?
I feel sorry for his kids though.
Where did you find the tour dates? Was he touring with Jacko at the time or with others? I doubt he'd do something like that in his presence.Sammy the turk was a bit of a let down, fairly widely acknowledged he did that one.

The Sidney Collins confession came as a bit of a shock and I'm not sure if I really believe it. I think if Collins went missing the same day in the same town Chopper was passing through he would of been questioned a bit more heavily than he did. Would Sid be so stupid as to go to his show alone and get in a car alone with him?
"So when was the last time Sid was seen?"
"Oh, he was just going to a chopper read performance Sir".
I didn't know about the Des Costello murder either. I wonder who he done it with.
...Not sure about Issacs though very possible. Wonder if there were any injuries indentified post mortem that line up with Read's story..

I only went off Wikipedia which says the tour was in 2005 but I found an old article later on that had part of an interview that said he was on a tour in Adelaide in 2002, he also did a book launch around different parts of the country in 2002. There's a thread on here too which backs up that he was on tour in 2002 http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/what-do-people-think-of-chopper-read.42513/ I also watched his movie again last night hadn't seen it for years but can't recall if he had any input, at the start of it when he is in prison there is some references to the Painters & Dockers war.
One of my idols, yeah I idolise crims but that's cause I was born in this ****** up generation.

Well there you have it. Jackson and Mark Dixon said it was bullshit.
You wouldn't put it past him. Last night's interview looked like Chopper just grabbing one more piece of notoriety before the final curtain came down.
The only other possible reason for making up such a fanciful story was if someone he knew had actually done the deed and he wanted to draw attention away from the real killer. Possible, but I think even Chopper would realise that he's story would be torn to shreds within 12 hours and all he'd succeed in doing is drawing more attention to the case. So I would suggest that Dixon is on the money and Chopper hasn't the faintest idea who did it.
