Don't know if anyone else caught their Rock Arena live concert on Rage last night. Reminded me of just what a great band they were, definitely one of the best and most underrated Aussie bands from the 1980's. Unlike a lot of 80's bands their music hasn't dated either and still sounds as great today as it did back in 1985 (when the Rock Arena concert was recorded).
I had the good fortune to see them live for the first time at the UWA Refectory back in the 90's on one of their comeback tours and it was one of the best live performances I've ever seen. Sure the 10 or so jugs of beer I'd consumed prior to them arriving on stage may have helped in my appraisal but they were nothing short of sensational. They reeled of all their big hits and had the crowd eating out of the palm of their hands. Me and a couple of mates were so impressed that we all went out and bought their Best of CD the next day and have been huge fans ever since.
For anyone that missed their live performance on Rage last night, a couple of highlights.

Couldn't find their Rock Arena live performance of this song but one of my favourites anyway.
