Curly:
Grrr. Hey there everyone, raise your bats, raise your glass and welcome to episode 100 of the Unfiltered and Undiscovered podcast. How are we? Let’s welcome our co-host down there in Adelaide, we’ve got Bragi and of course in Sydney we’ve got Rossi. How are we guys?

Tave:
Very good. Very good.

Rossy:
I’m pretty good, Tony.

Tave:
I don’t want to talk about footy though.

Curly:
Okay, I think we’ve got enough to talk about. We’ve been inundated with questions, which is really, really cool. So we’ve got some video questions and we’ve got some viewers who have just written into us, which is awesome. I think Big Stewie, our country music correspondent, sort of missed the brief. He thought the whole show was him hosting. So

Tave:
Fuckin’ hell.

Curly:
I chopped that

Rossy:
Ha ha

Curly:
back

Rossy:
ha.

Curly:
a bit. So, but yeah, it’s gonna be a good chat. Hey, look, one of the common things that we did get through was how did the podcast get started? So I just thought I’d share a little bit of the history of the podcast and how it sort of evolved into what we do today. And fundamentally, the former host, the former co-host, Matt and during the pandemic he was locked down in Melbourne more often than not and his mental health was really quite challenging. So he used to come on another podcast that I had which I sort of shifted into a leadership podcast so you know he wanted to get on a podcast and just talk early unfiltered podcast and just to have something for him, I guess, and for me to look forward to while the pandemic had started off in about, of course, in 2020. And from there, it just sort of evolved. And, you know, we got Braggy on, we got Sean Fraser from the Ritzy Kids on, and we just started to really fine tune what the whole podcast was about. Like all good things and all good bands, there’s always going to be a split somewhere. And unfortunately, there was a split. So the former guy, Matt, went on and moved on. And Bragi sort of was already doing co-hosting at that stage as well. So we just carried on

Tave:
Thanks for

Curly:
from

Tave:
watching. Bye.

Curly:
there. I think that was about episode 29 or 30, if I remember rightly. the early podcast is just talking, talking. It was just me and my conservative conspiratorial best, I guess so. But

Rossy:
you

Curly:
one of the podcasts we did was actually when Matt shared a story about him pashing with a girl with his mask on. And I thought it was the most fucking ridiculous thing I’d ever heard in my life. Anyway, that’s the title of that particular episode. is one of our most listened to episodes of all time, Pashing With Your Mask On. So, you know, a shout out to Matt, he’s got an EP that we’re hoping will come out soon, I guess, but he’s been working on it for the last two or three years. And without Matt, we wouldn’t have had the links that we have with our friends, Alison A. Sarge and Sean Fraser. So of course, we miss, we wish Matt all

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
the best, the former

Tave:
here’s to Maddie.

Curly:
guy.

Tave:
I hope the EP

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
comes out soon and hope it’s killer.

Curly:
Absolutely. So that’s a little bit of the history. And then we started to focus in on the music. And I still remember Braggie’s brother, Mark, sort of having a bit of a dig at us. Because I think every week there for a stage, we were changing the name. We went from

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
unfiltered to undiscovered to unorganized. And he said, can you just get a name and stick with it? So we

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
sort

Tave:
we’re still

Curly:
of stuck

Tave:
fucking

Curly:
with

Tave:
unorganized.

Curly:
unfiltered. And yeah, so unfiltered conversation. course we talk a lot about undiscovered music. So one of our favorite people on Facebook, Cat Gunn sent us a congratulatory message.

Tave:
Aww.

Curly:
She wrote, congratulations on making it to the 100 episodes. All the best things take time and last the distance. While I’ve only recently jumped on the you and you bandwagon, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed tuning in weekly and watching the podcast evolve to the knowledge, the insight and enthusiasm for music from the team keep me tuning in and has helped re-spark my passion for music, introducing me to new artists and reacquainting me with ones that have dropped off my radar. Time to raise your bats, gents. Well done on scoring a century. So

Tave:
Ah, that’s

Curly:
how

Tave:
cool.

Curly:
nice is that?

Rossy:
That’s lovely.

Tave:
Thanks,

Rossy:
That’s lovely.

Tave:
Kat.

Curly:
The only bit of news I really wanna talk about, is the Birdmen are back in the news. And I

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
sort of missed this, but they’ve released a book called When the Birdmen Flew. And it’s an illustrated type, I’m presuming, it’s like a coffee table book. It’s jam packed full of photos, memorabilia, from 74 to 2007. So the band’s archives and scrapbooks have been collected by a lifelong radio Birdmen fan, George Muniz, supplied by other Birdman fans all around the world. So that’s available now, I think. I think the first pressing has sold out. So we’re a little bit late to the party,

Tave:
Okay.

Curly:
but they’re taking orders, pre-orders again for the next lot. And that’s available at highvoltagepublishing.com.

Tave:
That’s going to get your head in one of those shots there. Rossi, you reckon backstage?

Rossy:
No,

Tave:
No.

Rossy:
no,

Tave:
Okay.

Rossy:
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Tave:
Hehehe

Rossy:
Yeah, yeah, they’re an interesting, they’re an interesting band, I think.

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Yeah, yeah, I think that they, yeah, as, you know, as a Queenslander, you had the Saints down

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
here, we had Birdman.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Melbourne had the birthday party.

Curly:
I was listening today to the Saints at Paddington Hall, that famous gig

Tave:
Wow.

Curly:
they did with the Birdman,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
and it’s like 17 minutes of just pure gold. And when Chris Bailey talks about the Hitler Youth because

Rossy:
youth

Curly:
of the

Rossy:
as well.

Curly:
insignia, so

Tave:
Ah yeah.

Curly:
you could sense the rivalry.

Rossy:
That started a feud.

Tave:
Well,

Curly:
Yeah

Tave:
I bet you it did.

Rossy:
The Hitler Youth are up next.

Curly:
Yeah. So the only other news, of course, is I’m heading to Boston very soon to run the

Tave:
Yes!

Curly:
Boston Marathon. Just

Rossy:
Hey!

Curly:
Elliot Kocogi, who is the world record holder Olympic Marathon hero, the only guy in history to ever go under two hours in the marathon, is also running. And by the time my wife and I start the race, which is about 11 o’clock, he’s going to be finished. So hopefully

Tave:
So,

Rossy:
Ha ha.

Curly:
he hangs around

Tave:
but

Curly:
and

Tave:
hang

Curly:
Jesus

Tave:

Curly:

Tave:
He ran the two, under two hours, but he was, had a pacer, didn’t he? He had some, he had guys pacing

Curly:
Oh,

Tave:
him, didn’t he?

Curly:
they had laser lights, they had a team of

Tave:
Not

Curly:
paces.

Tave:
that that makes it any less fucking

Rossy:
Less

Tave:
unbelievable,

Rossy:
impressive.

Curly:
Hahaha!

Tave:

So

Rossy:

Curly:

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
and they set it at the pace that Kipchoge runs these marathons.

Tave:
Yeah, right.

Curly:
And people just thought that they just can’t keep up. So it’s like three minutes a kilometer he’s running. So

Tave:

Tave:
Hey!

Curly:

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Curly:
Braggie’s who am I we need that like an intro for it Braggie

Rossy:
We need

Tave:
I think

Rossy:
a sting,

Tave:
so.

Rossy:
we need a sting. We need a sting.

Tave:
think so. Must be must be your go Rossi. I did the country one. I reckon you might have to do this one. Okay.

Rossy:
Or do you stink?

Tave:
Okay, ready?

Curly:
Yep, go for it.

Tave:
I was born in August, Victoria, on the 29th of January, 1943. My father, Robert, was a farmer from Kenny Ambo near Shepperton, and then a World War Two Army Sergeant who served with the AIF in Port Moresby. My mother, Isabelle, was from August and married my father two months after his enlistment. I have two younger brothers, Brian, born in 46 and Robert, born in 50. up largely with one of my grandmothers in Kwambutuk where I attended the local primary school alongside future country music artist John Williamson. I also stayed with several arts and was raised in the traditions of the Church of England. My father, no longer a farmer, ran a hardware store in Kaianbrim while my mother had periodic hospitalizations for mental illness including some years at the La Rundle Mental Asylum in Bunduas in the mid-60s. During this I developed a musical interest in Gilbert and Sullivan and Verdi.

Rossy:
Oh, he’s got me, he’s got me.

Tave:
Not for long I haven’t.

Curly:
I never have an idea.

Rossy:
That’s very good. I was intrigued.

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
Yeah!

Tave:
okay. Well, you know,

Rossy:
Ehhhhhh

Tave:
it’s probably Australian, at least with all those, with all those city

Curly:
Yeah. Yeah.

Tave:
town names.

Rossy:
I’m one

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
of those pesky Victorians.

Tave:
And a Victorian,

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
yeah, see?

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
OK.

Curly:
I’m a champion. Alrighty, so first part of the who am I? So if you can guess it, good on you because I’ve got absolutely no chance. Now tonight

Rossy:
What?

Curly:
we’re doing a reverse panel. We’ve asked our listeners and our viewers and some of our favorite guests who it’s their time to ask the panel a question.

Tave:
I’m looking

Curly:
And

Tave:
forward to this.

Curly:
we’ve had some really good takers. bit of a heads up because a lot of it is really quite deep thinking sort of stuff and I just don’t have enough deep thinking music sort of so I had to give him a bit of the heads

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
up.

Tave:
lucky Rossi and I have got beads.

Curly:
So we’re

Rossy:
It’s flying time!

Tave:
Oh.

Curly:
going to start with Cat Gunn who’s also, Cat has supplied us some lyrics for the

Tave:
Oh.

Curly:
Servo Pi song.

Tave:
Oh

Curly:
So

Tave:
really?

Rossy:
Ah,

Curly:
yeah.

Rossy:
very good.

Curly:
So keep going Cat. We love you and we love the fact that you’re engaging with the podcast. That’s brilliant. That is beautiful. So, so Kat’s asked a question and it’s a challenging one. You know, the music gods can create one musical event for you to attend. The Beatles, but they’re playing Led Zeppelin songs or Led Zeppelin playing the songs of the Beatles. and why so let’s kick off with Braggie shall we

Tave:
It’s a no brainer for me. I mean, I’m a fan of both those bands, but I’m gonna see Zep playing the Beatles songs because I do love the Beatles, but I reckon they just had a little bit more guts in some of them songs, they’d be fucking unbelievable. So that’s the way I’m gonna go. Zep

Curly:
Okay.

Tave:
playing the Beatles.

Curly:
What about you, Rossy?

Rossy:
to go exactly the same way for a slightly different reason because like Pagie and John Paul Jones played on all those 60s hits anyway, right? So they’ve got it in them. So they would, they’d know it though because Beatles playing Led Zeppelin songs, they just turn them into like a day in the life.

Tave:
Yeah, not gonna work.

Rossy:
Some of those Led Zeppelin songs would go for 15 minutes already, you know? So I think the Beatles songs played by Led Zeppelin would be fascinating because Pagie, like you know, and Donovan and all that sort of stuff. I reckon it’d be a really nice fresh take on that stuff. My take, that’s what I reckon. What

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
about you, Curly?

Curly:
Yeah, I’m probably going to go the same way. I would like to see a bit more guts in the Beatles songs. And yes, I’m not as deep into the Beatles as you two esteemed gentlemen, but it’d be nice to see a bit of like heavy depth into the music. So I think that’s the way I would go too. So that’s

Rossy:
You

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
know,

Curly:
pretty

Rossy:
it

Curly:
cool.

Rossy:
is viewed that Hilda Skelter may have been the first heavy metal song.

Tave:
good well-being.

Curly:
Uhhh…

Rossy:
And it was played on a bass six, which is like a six string guitar that’s tuned an octave lower to be a bass.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
And the month theme was played on one too.

Tave:
Yeah, I mean, I want to hear Pagie playing some of those Beatles riffs, you know, like, you know, doon,

Rossy:
Yeah

Tave:
doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon, doon,

Curly:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
you know, really cranking it.

Rossy:
Oh

Tave:
Yeah, I’m

Rossy:
yeah,

Tave:
talking.

Rossy:
Pavey playing day tripper.

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that’d be,

Tave:
And

Rossy:
cause

Tave:
it’s.

Rossy:
he’s he, well, you look at that. He’s got it going on, right? He’s got that sixties going on.

Tave:
Extended jam in the middle of it, you know?

Curly:
Hahaha

Rossy:
Can you imagine?

Curly:
Made it would be

Rossy:
Come

Curly:
beautiful.

Rossy:
back!

Curly:
Beautiful.

Tave:
John would

Rossy:
It would

Tave:
love,

Rossy:
be.

Tave:
John would love that.

Rossy:
Yeah, Paul would have tried to cut it down to a three minutes song.

Curly:
Ha ha.

Tave:
Yeah. And yeah, and just the fact that

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
you’re replacing Ringo with John Bonham too. Wow.

Curly:
Mmm,

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
excellent.

Rossy:
But would John Paul Jones have to fight Billy Preston for keyboard duties?

Tave:
Ooh, good question.

Rossy:
Oh yeah.

Curly:
Interesting,

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
interesting. Kat sent us another question. She said, what is the best life advice you’ve got from a song lyric? Rossy?

Rossy:
Nice boys don’t play rock and roll.

Curly:
Oh, where’s that from?

Rossy:
Rose Taddu’s song, Nice Boys Don’t Play Rock and Roll.

Tave:
Oh yeah. Good luck.

Rossy:
In the last, I’m not a nice boy and I never was.

Tave:
Well, if we hadn’t written it already, it’d be, I love a servo pie, but can’t be that. So

Rossy:
Hahaha.

Tave:
I’m just gonna be,

Curly:
Hahaha.

Tave:
I’m gonna be sappy. I’m gonna go back to the Beatles. I’m gonna say all you need is love.

Rossy:
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Tave:
Ha ha!

Curly:
Oh, how beautiful. I’m,

Rossy:
Curly.

Curly:
there are so many song lyrics that I could have chosen with this because I think there are so many song lyrics that have just gone through my life. But I’m gonna go with the lyrics that, from a band called The Jam. So some people might say my life is in a rut. I’m quite happy with what I’ve got. strive for more, but I’m so happy I can’t see the point. So going underground

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
by the jam,

Tave:
I like that.

Curly:
it’s just,

Rossy:
All right. I’ll

Tave:
I like

Rossy:
do

Tave:
that.

Rossy:
it.

Tave:
I

Curly:
yeah.

Tave:
like that. It’s really good life advice. You’ve got two choices in life. If you’re not happy, you can either change it or learn to be happy

Rossy:
kept

Tave:
with

Rossy:
on me doing.

Tave:
the way you are. Yeah.

Curly:
Yeah, yeah. You know, you look at some of the songs that Paul Weller wrote, like Shout to the Top, that’s just another one that’s just a magical song if ever you’re feeling a bit down in the dumps. And yeah, so there’s heaps out there. Ups and Downs, Living Kind, man. Even Ups and Downs wrote a song called Moments Away. chorus there and the way it just sort of ekes away and then builds up. So lyrics, great questions, cat and

Rossy:
Okay, bye.

Tave:
Thanks, Kat.

Curly:
awesome. Then we

Rossy:
Thank

Curly:
had

Rossy:
you.

Curly:
the big Stu. Now, I know, Braggie, you’re going to be really horrified by this, but he wrote the questions, didn’t put them on video. He’s

Tave:
That’s

Curly:
such

Tave:
all right.

Curly:
a shy guy, isn’t he? Such

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
a shy guy.

Tave:
Yeah, yeah. It’s hard to get him

Curly:
hahahaha

Tave:
out of his skin.

Curly:
So, if you

Tave:
We’re

Curly:
had

Tave:
good.

Curly:
only five minutes of life left, five minutes of life left, what song would you listen to and why?

Tave:
Who’s going first? Me.

Curly:
Bye.

Rossy:
Here you

Tave:
You

Rossy:
go.

Curly:
Yay.

Tave:
know what I’d do? I’d just go to the Spotify and just put it on random and just leave it up to fate. Whatever fucking comes out, that’s my last song.

Curly:
Wiem.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
Yeah, it’s a really tough question, isn’t it? I’m a little bit like you. I’m just sort of, you know, maybe I’d go for the angels coming down or going down, whatever it looks like

Tave:
Looks

Curly:
it’s

Tave:
like

Curly:
coming down.

Tave:
it’s coming down on me. Yeah.

Curly:
Um,

Rossy:
A Queensland song?

Curly:
am I ever gonna see your face again? That sort of fits in with the last five minutes of life, doesn’t it?

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
I

Curly:
Eh.

Rossy:
would have grabbed, I’d grab born to run.

Curly:
Oh!

Tave:
Baby I was born…

Rossy:
What a song.

Tave:
Oh yeah, okay.

Rossy:
The whole album, everything on that album I love.

Tave:
Yeah?

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
Yes. Fair enough. That’s a good choice.

Curly:
it’s I wonder if the length of your life left would be dependent on the song, because that way I’d

Tave:
Oh.

Curly:
go for bad out of hell bone meat loaf

Tave:
Oh, well,

Curly:
to

Tave:
I’d

Curly:
at

Tave:
go

Curly:
least

Tave:
for…

Curly:
eke out.

Tave:
I’d

Rossy:
I’ve

Tave:
go

Rossy:
been reaching

Tave:
for…

Rossy:
for in a garden to weed out.

Tave:
Yeah, I’d go for Space Truck and my… My Deep Purple. That’s the

Rossy:
The

Tave:
whole

Rossy:
live,

Tave:
side of the album.

Rossy:
the made in Japan version. That’s

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
Hahaha

Tave:
that’s the one.

Rossy:
alright.

Curly:
Oh, but yeah, so that’s

Tave:
Uh, you wouldn’t

Curly:
great.

Tave:
be gone for in that case. You wouldn’t be going for a Ramon song, would you?

Rossy:
So

Curly:
G-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h-h

Rossy:
no, you would not.

Tave:
You’d be out of there quick or a pocket watch song.

Rossy:
It’s right, a minute and a half.

Curly:
Ah, beautiful. All right. Stewie also asked, what obstacles have you encountered with the production of the podcast, giving the distance between you guys

Rossy:
I’m going to go ahead and close the video. I’m going to go ahead and close the video.

Curly:
and very relevant tonight because we had microphone issues with adult, with our Adelaide connection.

Tave:
Well, the problem we’ve come across a lot is that we don’t have got a fucking clue what we’re doing. That’s the main problem.

Curly:
Hahaha

Tave:
So

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
I don’t know.

Curly:
fundamentally, I think most of the obstacles, we, when it’s just us three on, we normally have a pretty stress-free sort of a time.

Tave:
Yes.

Curly:
We’ve got the setup, we’ve got the kit, you know, it’s pretty easy for us to do. I think the biggest challenges that we have is the organization before the podcast. So,

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Font colors.

Curly:
yeah, font colors, yeah.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
And I guess every now and again, we’ll get a guest who

Tave:
Sean from the Rootsie

Curly:
isn’t

Tave:
Kids

Curly:
quite.

Tave:
internet’s been a problem.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Ha ha ha ha ha.

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
I was going to say data links. I was going to say data links are the biggest problem.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
And if we all had a had fiber internet at home, it would have been a better world.

Curly:
Well, it would have been so, but yeah, it’s, um, that’s probably the biggest challenge we have just, um, every now and again, we get a guest that doesn’t or may not have the, the setup that, uh, makes a seamless experience. But overall, I think we go all right every now and again, like sailor, the century, Simon’s episode, someone gets a little bit out of sink and that’s, you know, just purely the platform that we use. But

Rossy:
If I’m

Curly:
you

Rossy:
true.

Curly:
know, I think overall, I think we go.

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Unless of course I’m trapped in the studio.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Yes, that’s right.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Sometimes that

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
doesn’t work. It’s that it’s the Sydney internet. It’s not that good. I feel.

Rossy:
It is.

Curly:
And every now and again, like today was a bit of a check in just to make sure that we’re all on time in respect of daylight saving.

Rossy:
That’s

Curly:
So,

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
right.

Curly:
but overall, I think we make it happen somehow.

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
So,

Tave:
yeah,

Curly:
yeah, but great

Tave:
true.

Curly:
questions, Dewey.

Rossy:
But I will say Tony does do most of the heavy lifting, doesn’t he, Braggen?

Tave:
Oh, without Tony, there is nothing. He’s the man.

Rossy:
No, no, Tony, no show.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
Yeah,

Rossy:
He does all the work.

Tave:
Yeah. Rossi

Curly:
that’s

Tave:
and

Curly:
why

Tave:
I just,

Curly:
I need a credit

Tave:
Rossi and I

Curly:
on

Tave:
just

Curly:
the Servo

Tave:
the pretty faces.

Curly:
Pi.

Rossy:
Curly is all about the leadership.

Tave:
Yes.

Curly:
You guys are all about the Glenn A. Bakers, and that’s why I really want to get the Servo Pi up, because at least then I might get some musical credit somewhere. So

Rossy:
Ha ha!

Curly:
hey,

Rossy:
Thank you.

Curly:
and then Stewie, I gave him three, because as I said, he gave me three thousand questions. If every single musician was available, Who is the one musical artist that you would love to have on the podcast and why? who wants to go first.

Tave:
You’re go Rossy.

Rossy:
Mmm, that’s really, really, really, really hard.

Tave:
It is.

Rossy:
You know who one of my favorites is? I really, really love Matthew Sweet,

Tave:
Oh,

Rossy:
American singer songwriter,

Tave:
yeah, I

Rossy:
fascinating

Tave:
got that

Rossy:
guy,

Tave:
one album.

Rossy:
girlfriend

Tave:
It’s got a picture

Rossy:
with

Tave:
of him

Rossy:
waiting

Tave:
on the

Rossy:
and,

Tave:
front. Yeah.

Rossy:
I would say the one with him on the front as a kid, that’s a hundred percent fun,

Tave:
Yeah, that’s the one

Rossy:
fantastic

Tave:
I got.

Rossy:
songwriter,

Tave:
I love that album. I

Rossy:
great,

Tave:
love those songs.

Rossy:
he’s a great songwriter, singer, interesting bike, I think he’d be fascinating.

Tave:
Yeah, I’d forgotten all about him. Because now I play the vinyl. My CDs are locked away. And I’m, yeah, I’ve got to get that out. Listen to that. That’s killer.

Rossy:
Great

Tave:
I’m

Rossy:
record.

Tave:
going to go with that. I’m going to go back on what Curly just said. It’s unusual you brought him up before, Curly. But I’m going to say

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
Paul Weller, because I want to understand

Rossy:
Oh!

Tave:
how you go from the jam, and then you come out with the style council, which is just so different. And then now, if you’ve listened to his stuff, He’s solo stuff. It’s different again. He’s like a chameleon. It’s I’d love to get him on and and then maybe

Curly:
It’s just…

Tave:
have have Willie Nelson on to supply the refreshments as

Curly:
Hahaha

Tave:
well

Rossy:
Ha!

Curly:
Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe

Rossy:
I bumped

Tave:
We

Rossy:
into Willie out the front of a gig one night.

Tave:
Oh, did you?

Rossy:
He

Curly:
Oh…

Rossy:
said, the Lansdowne Hotel in Sydney, I walked out the front and there he was.

Tave:
Wow,

Curly:
Wow.

Tave:
they didn’t medium-red

Rossy:
I was

Tave:
the back

Rossy:
like.

Tave:
light up. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Rossy:
No, I shouldn’t.

Curly:
There was no smoking ceremony there or anything.

Rossy:
No, not that night, which is what crews do as you know.

Tave:
Yeah, crew’s gotta be.

Curly:
But when you’re talking about Paul Weller, that last album by The Jam, The Gift, I think it was called, it’s got Beat Surrender on it. Beat Surrender

Rossy:
in

Curly:
is an amazing song.

Rossy:
It

Curly:
You

Rossy:
is.

Curly:
can see where Weller wanted was going, where Paul was going,

Tave:
Hmm.

Curly:
and then lo and behold, that pops the style council.

Rossy:
But that’s

Tave:
Yeah, but then

Rossy:
the nature

Tave:
after

Rossy:
of

Tave:
that,

Rossy:
songwriters, is that they

Tave:
there’s

Rossy:
evolve.

Tave:
an album called, there’s an album called Stanley Street that he did. It’s got, change him, it’s got, oh.

Curly:
Okay.

Tave:
And he’s still doing it. He’s like, and he’s like, I don’t know how old he is, 70? He’s still killing it too.

Curly:
I still love going back to Live Aid videos and watching the Style Council with DC Lee. And it’s

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
just such a, just that was just too cool. And what was the keyboard’s player again? Is it Talbot?

Tave:
That was, yeah, Talbot.

Curly:
Yeah, he used to have the rocking keyboard that would move. So that was just too

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
cool.

Tave:
and it was so poppy,

Rossy:
I don’t

Tave:
but there

Rossy:
know.

Tave:
was such political messages in all those songs from the Style Council,

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
which is what I like.

Rossy:
I must give you a link to a San Francisco band called the Mummies. If you like a rocking keyboard, if you like someone who moves their keyboard around, the Mummies are a band who dress up as Mummies. Their keyboard player drives this thing around like this. They played in Sydney

Curly:
Thanks for watching!

Rossy:
and I saw them and it was the greatest night of my life.

Curly:
The mummies, all right. So if every single musician was available, who would I love to have on the podcast? Number one, without any question of a doubt would be Paul Kelly. I would love to just, A, talk about cricket, talk about Norwood, talk about the early days, talk about, you know, because if you talk about an artist that’s constantly evolving, Kelly’s

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
just got his niche. He can put anything out now and people would love it. So

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
now

Rossy:
He’s turned into Paul Kelly now. Look

Curly:
Yeah, and…

Rossy:
like he’s a brand. You know him. You know

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
he’s stuffed

Tave:
yeah,

Rossy:
by

Tave:
he’s Australia’s…

Rossy:
smell.

Tave:
I don’t know, Bob Dylan…

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Just thank

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
God he doesn’t play, I want to be like Billy Baxter anymore.

Curly:
I love

Tave:
Oh yeah,

Curly:
that

Tave:
that’s

Curly:
song.

Tave:
right,

Curly:
He, he,

Tave:
he did,

Curly:
he,

Tave:
that’s right.

Rossy:
I still remember.

Curly:
he bought the rights to that. He was, sorry, he was given the rights and then immediately stopped having, getting it out there. So.

Rossy:
I saw it at an underage show when I was like 15 or 16 with Paul Kelly and the Dots. Must have been the first time they came to

Curly:
again.

Rossy:
Sydney. And that was the only thing we knew.

Curly:
Yeah. Yeah.

Tave:
Wow.

Rossy:
is.

Curly:
But a close second would be Mick Thomas from Weddings, Parties, Anything.

Rossy:
Part of the same thing. Yeah,

Curly:
I’d

Rossy:
okay.

Curly:
love to bend his ear and have a beer with him, to be honest. So and then probably a little bit more of a distant. I’d love to talk to Ignatius Jones. So.

Tave:
Oh yeah,

Rossy:
Oh yes, oh

Tave:
and his sister,

Rossy:
yes.

Tave:
and his sister.

Rossy:
Monica Trappica,

Tave:
I love

Rossy:
yeah.

Tave:
Monica,

Curly:
Mm.

Tave:
yeah.

Curly:
Yeah. Ahem.

Rossy:
I’d

Curly:
Ha

Rossy:
rather get Bill O’Riordan

Curly:
ha

Rossy:
on who’s Joelyne Haremouth in

Tave:
Well,

Rossy:
Jimmy

Curly:
ha

Tave:
look,

Curly:
ha

Rossy:
and the

Curly:
ha

Rossy:
Boys.

Curly:
ha.

Tave:
I think boys, we just need to put these names out there and we’ll get them. We’ll get them in the next hundred episodes. You watch.

Rossy:
Ignatius

Curly:
Let them.

Rossy:
is a raconteur.

Curly:
Yeah, so and like

Tave:
I reckon

Curly:
he’s been,

Tave:
too, I love that word.

Curly:
but he’s been involved in like things like the Sydney, the Commonwealth Games opening ceremonies

Rossy:
Vivid,

Curly:
and,

Rossy:
vivid.

Curly:
mate,

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
so I’d love to understand his journey and really just have a,

Rossy:
I…

Curly:
have a chat to him.

Rossy:
I was sorry, I’m at the men’s room wearing a t-shirt that was made out of tripe.

Tave:
Yeah, there

Curly:
tripe.

Tave:
you go. Wow.

Rossy:
Right, In Arms and Legs was

Curly:
Uh…

Rossy:
his band. But

Tave:
Thanks for watching!

Rossy:
I love Jimmy and the Boys, man.

Curly:
Yeah,

Rossy:
What a great

Curly:
Jimmy

Rossy:
band

Curly:
and

Rossy:
they

Curly:
the

Rossy:
were.

Curly:
boys. And once again, there’s some really good life messages in some of their music.

Rossy:
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Curly:
So

Tave:
Huh. Okay.

Curly:
second part of Who Am I, Bragi.

Tave:
Whee! In the early 1960s, I arrived in Melbourne where I briefly attended Taylor’s College. Then I decided I wanted to become a disc jockey. So I studied at a radio school. When that didn’t work out, I would go to the University of Melbourne without formally enrolling, carry law books, eat lunch with the law students and avoid questions on what course I was taking. Having no stable accommodation, I moved in with the family of my close friend, Ronnie Burns, who became a pop star, first as a member of the Flies and then as a solo artist. What had started as a two-week stay with the Burns family became nine years. In 1964, I saw the Beatles play at the Melbourne Town Hall and later that same year, whilst on a surfing holiday in Lawton and Anglesey, I began my musical career as a roadie from my friend’s band, the group whose keyboardist was Brian Cadd. Curly’s, Rossy’s got it,

Curly:
Yeah, Rossi’s

Tave:
I think.

Rossy:
I’ve

Curly:
got

Rossy:
got it.

Curly:
it.

Rossy:
I’ve got it. I’ve got it. Oh, it’s the ruddy birds that got me. Smiley.

Tave:
Okay.

Rossy:
What a lovely song that was.

Curly:
Hmm. No,

Tave:
Can we?

Curly:
I’m still in in the dark. I’ve

Tave:
Okay.

Curly:
got an idea. But yeah,

Tave:
That’s

Curly:
it’s

Tave:
okay.

Curly:
probably miles

Tave:
I’ll bring it

Curly:
wrong,

Tave:
home. I’ll bring it home

Curly:
miles

Tave:
in

Curly:
wrong.

Tave:
the last section. For

Curly:
Alright, that’s

Tave:
not

Curly:
cool.

Tave:
just YouTube, but for everybody listening.

Curly:
Yeah. So let’s do some video. Hey, we’ve got

Tave:
Oh,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
some people that have shared their videos.

Tave:
I’m nervous.

Curly:
So am I, to be honest, I’m just going to make sure it all works.

Tave:
Ah, are we, is this some of the problems we encounter?

Curly:
Yeah, every now and again we go, whoops, so here we go. So what’s this? just talk amongst yourselves now.

Tave:
Drinking a nice, uh, temperanillo from the Barossa.

Curly:
So the first one is from a good friend

Tave:
Oi, I know

Curly:
of

Tave:
that

Curly:
the

Tave:
face!

Curly:
podcast and Rob Stannia, and this is a question for Tave. Rob Stannia here again. So, I’m going to start with a question for Tave. So, I’m going to start with a question for Tave. So, I’m going to start with a question for Tave. So, I’m going to start with a question for Tave. So, I’m going to start

Tave:
Uh oh.

Curly:
with a question for Tave. First of all, if you were the entity in charge of creating the world and everything in it, and you only had the option to create either the Beatles or the Rolling Stones, which band would it be? Which band would be the one that you, that the world would only see? Secondly, imagine you get stuck into a time warp and the Beatles are recording Sergeant Pepper and the Stones are recording Exile on Main Street at exactly the same time. Brian Epstein calls you and says, and won’t be able to record so pepper can you please come in and put down all bass tracks for us on the same day the stones manager calls and says hey mate bill wyman has contracted aids from a blood transfusion and can’t record exile on main street can you come in and play bass on all the tracks unfortunately due to your rail modem commitments you can only play on one album so my question is which album do you choose to play on and why

Tave:
Fucking hell!

Curly:
All right.

Tave:
So what’s the first one I’ve got to be gone? I can only have…

Rossy:
You either create the Beatles or the Stones and only

Curly:
Thanks for watching!

Rossy:
one of the

Tave:
Well,

Rossy:
two.

Tave:
I’m gonna, well, it’s a no brainer. I’m gonna create the Beatles because there’s probably no stones without the Beatles. So that’s easy. Go, I’ll create

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
the Beatles. And then they write the first song for the Stones anyway. First

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
hit. So that’s easy.

Rossy:
Second one,

Tave:
What’s second one?

Rossy:
second one you play sessions for the stones or the Beatles.

Tave:
Oh, I’m gonna play, I’m gonna play McCartney’s. I’m gonna try and play those, that shit. I don’t wanna play Bill Wyman stuff.

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
Although, plus I

Rossy:
I

Tave:
don’t

Rossy:
just…

Tave:
want to be, where were they in France, when they did Exile on Main Street

Rossy:
Yes.

Tave:
with lots of heroin? I don’t want to be there. I’d rather be

Rossy:
I’d

Tave:
with

Rossy:
just

Tave:
Sergeant

Rossy:
pick up my

Tave:
Peppers.

Rossy:
phone, I’d pick up the phone, ring my mate Lemmy Kilmister and send him over to the Stone’s session because I want to hear that.

Curly:
Hahaha!

Tave:
Yeah, that’s a good I will have to do a thing once I think

Curly:
Ahem.

Tave:
that’s a good idea You know,

Rossy:
Thank you.

Tave:
I’ve been thinking about this. We have to do a show once it’s you have to pick take someone from one band And put them in another band. What what who would you do?

Curly:
Oh,

Rossy:
If you

Curly:
what would happen?

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
yeah,

Curly:
You

Tave:
so there

Curly:
could,

Tave:
you go

Curly:
um, you could put Curly in any band in the world and there would not be one iota of difference because

Tave:
I’d put

Curly:
all

Tave:
you

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
he’d

Tave:
up

Curly:
do

Tave:
front.

Curly:
is just,

Tave:
I’d put you

Curly:
I’d

Tave:
up front

Curly:
stand

Tave:
and died

Curly:
there

Tave:
pretty.

Curly:
and, um, yeah, I’d do something.

Rossy:
You can be out in front of Don Pretty. That’d

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
be great.

Tave:
it’d be perfect!

Rossy:
I can say it now.

Curly:
Yeah, me and Ron disconnecting. All right.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
So next question, this one is for me. All right.

Tave:
Weee.

Curly:
So this is

Rossy:
Oh.

Tave:
This is

Curly:
once

Tave:
still

Curly:
again,

Tave:
Robbie. This

Curly:
Rob.

Tave:
is still Stan here.

Curly:
It’s still Robbie. Let’s get, let’s get him out of the way. He had the biggest questions. He had

Tave:
Okay.

Curly:
like, when you, when you see my video, you’ll see that it’s actually written. So he

Tave:
Oh

Curly:
actually took some time with it. So that’s always a positive. Here we go.

Rossy:
Mm-hmm.

Tave:
Huh? Wow.

Curly:
Okay, yeah deep

Tave:
He…

Curly:
multifaceted questions

Tave:
He’s assuming a lot about you.

Curly:
I’m not a nerd, Rob. So.

Tave:
No, I would not have put you

Rossy:
It just

Tave:
in that

Rossy:
plays

Tave:
category.

Rossy:
one and you don’t play one on television.

Curly:
So,

Tave:
No.

Curly:
all right. So, what shifted in my life? So, fundamentally, leaving school was just eye opening for me. I was a league and a cricket player, and depending on what time of the year it was, I was there. And then all of a sudden, coming out of school, you certainly weren’t as involved in sport. And I made a conscious choice. So I met a girl and, you know, I’d signed a contract to play some higher, higher level footy, but just never showed up because I’d met this girl. So another English Rose from a type person. So, so coming out of school, I started then just a tune into to music. I was a training manager in the retail world. that conservative type style. But I was playing up like a busted watch on a weekend, going to see as many bands as I could. I had a good core of friends. It was just a tremendous time. And then I guess where I am now is that a lot of it’s through us, I think. So you climb a corporate ladder wherever you are. And at the end of the day, if you’re there long enough, seeing you and give you the next job up. But what ultimately was the big shift in my life was meeting my wife. And that just changed who I, not who I was, but what I then wanted in life. And all of a sudden those things that Rob talked about, those being secure and being safe and trying to convert my wife into some of the music. You know, that was, that took center stage. And yeah, Rob, it still fires me up. I’ve been, I was talking to Rossy pre podcast saying, I’ve been listening to the Cosmic Psychos all week, you know, just drilling it in because, you know, I unfortunately didn’t know a lot about them, you know, and when Rossy called them the chats with the love child of the Cosmic Psychos, I said, I got to tune into these guys. I got to find out. bit about them but not a lot but I’ve I love their music and you know it’s it’s a lot of fun there’s a little bit of piss takes there’s a there’s a whole issue about what Australia is all about and once again there’s a lot of references to pubs and drinking and yeah it still moves me I there’s nothing better you know that I remember when Rat Cat brought out their what was their

Rossy:
Don’t go now.

Tave:
Don’t go

Curly:
but

Tave:
now!

Curly:
And I remember hearing that on commercial radio. And I was in Townsville at the time. And it still impacted me because I didn’t mind Rat Cat. They

Rossy:
Pop,

Curly:
told me

Rossy:
great

Curly:
that

Rossy:
pop.

Curly:
you’re really bad news. And all of a sudden I’m just going, wow. So it still impacts me, Rob. And I still love it. So did I answer the question, guys?

Rossy:
Yeah, very good, very succinct too, I

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
must

Tave:
that

Rossy:
say.

Tave:
was perfect. That was good.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
Well done,

Curly:
All right.

Tave:
Ross.

Curly:
So yeah, great questions. Robbie Stannia. Our next question is from a great friend of the show and our very first international artist, if I remember rightly, Braggie, a gentleman called Shane Sigro from

Tave:
Oh,

Curly:
Blind

Tave:
I love Shane.

Curly:
Season. And he’s got the pup

Tave:
He’s got his

Curly:
Comet.

Tave:
how dog. Look at him. He’s a gentle soul. I love him.

Curly:
And once again, it’s a great question. So he’s Shane. very succinct, but very deep.

Tave:
I say something before? Curly, I love the way you’ve put the number that episode that they are on, on the little thing. I don’t know. That’s

Curly:
Yeah, go

Rossy:
It’s

Curly:
back

Rossy:
the

Curly:
and

Rossy:
details.

Curly:
check it out. Yeah.

Tave:
so cool.

Rossy:
It’s the details

Tave:
Thank you.

Rossy:
that matter.

Tave:
Yeah, that’s good.

Tave:
Who’s up here for this one?

Curly:
Who wants to go first? Well, I’ll go first because

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
I, one, and this may surprise just about everyone out there, but when I was a kid, I was a surfer, we were living at Maroochydore. And one of the big sounds that I remember, and you know, this was late seventies, I guess, late seventies, early eighties, was the California beach sound, you know, and

Tave:
Oh yeah,

Curly:
you

Tave:
yeah.

Curly:
would be tuning into movies like Gidget.

Tave:
Yeah, yeah.

Curly:
I have no idea how those people surfed in California in just shorts because I don’t know if you’ve ever been to California, the water is bloody freezing. But I would love to live in California or San Diego or San Francisco in that time that the surfing music and the

Tave:
early

Curly:
buzz

Tave:
60s.

Curly:
was just sort of, that

Rossy:
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Curly:
would have been awesome. Big Wednesday style movie, that would have been just, that’s me.

Tave:
Thanks for watching!

Rossy:
Mmm.

Tave:
Um,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
I’m going to go new Orleans in the twenties, the birth of jazz, Louis Armstrong plan on the river boats, the fucking bed. And because I think that’s

Rossy:
Yeah,

Tave:
the spark

Rossy:
that’d

Tave:
of

Rossy:
be

Tave:
everything,

Rossy:
great.

Tave:
you know, and just that,

Rossy:
Meh.

Tave:
ah, eating the gumbo and whatever else is down there and that the food and yeah, that’s where I’m going to be twenties. Like, you know,

Rossy:
Mm.

Tave:
it was free living. It was like, there’s like the twenties is like the sixties.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
you know, stuck in between the wars.

Rossy:
And I’m eating a donut.

Curly:
Was that prohibition during that time?

Rossy:
Yeah, 20s, 30s was prohibition.

Tave:
Yeah?

Rossy:
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Tave:
Yeah, but you’d get around

Curly:
Oh, you

Tave:
it

Curly:
can…

Tave:
with the jazz band in New Orleans, surely. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Rossy:
I believe they’d have their smoking ceremony.

Curly:
Hahaha.

Tave:
Yeah, that’s where I am.

Rossy:
Yeah. In a shocking development, you’d find me in the late 60s, early 70s up in Detroit,

Tave:
You ready?

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
following around the MC5 and the Stooges,

Curly:
Hahaha!

Rossy:
a little bit of early

Tave:
Kick

Rossy:
Alice

Tave:
out the

Rossy:
Cooper.

Tave:
jams, motherfuckers! Ah,

Rossy:
And

Tave:
heheheheh.

Rossy:
then maybe

Curly:
Ha ha.

Rossy:
just bolt across to New York when CBGB’s opened.

Curly:
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Rossy:
I tell you, that’s where you’d

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
find me.

Tave:
how unusual.

Rossy:
I know, it comes as a shock doesn’t it?

Curly:
We would never have picked that one, so.

Tave:
UGH!

Rossy:
I want to see Sonic’s Ronde, I want to see Sonic’s Ronde Vuvan play live and doing city slang. That’s what I want to see.

Curly:
So

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
that’s Detroit.

Rossy:
Detroit, yeah.

Tave:
Garnet, Garnet,

Curly:
where Shane’s

Tave:
the

Curly:
from.

Tave:
CBG,

Curly:
So,

Tave:
yeah, there you go. CBGB’s there in

Curly:
there

Tave:
New York,

Curly:
you go.

Tave:
and Garnet the Dunny there, and Rossi was here.

Rossy:
where Sydney actually is a suburb of Detroit.

Curly:
Hahaha!

Tave:
Yeah, fair enough.

Curly:
Yes, it is. Yes, it is.

Rossy:
Plus you get all the Motown stuff as well. Yeah, I

Curly:
And

Rossy:
like-

Curly:
Detroit’s,

Tave:
Oh, yes.

Curly:
and Detroit had

Rossy:
Ted Nugent.

Curly:
rap.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
So Detroit’s just this musical melting pot that they just keep throwing different styles in and different inspirations.

Rossy:
Chicago is just around the corner, so there’s all the blues stuff.

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
yeah,

Tave:
and it was

Curly:
so.

Tave:
Motor City, so you could have been driving, you know, here and there in your Chevy or whatever, you know. Oh, fuck yeah.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
That’s

Curly:
So there you

Rossy:
Here

Tave:
it.

Curly:
go,

Rossy:
we

Curly:
Shane.

Rossy:
go.

Curly:
One of the one of the panel would go to Detroit. So that’s that’s pretty cool. All right. Next up, we have our friend from sale of the century, Simon Fallon,

Tave:
Oh.

Curly:
who was on our podcast with five songs of meaning. He.

Rossy:
I believe he’s our carryover champion.

Tave:
Roasty’s on fire.

Curly:
Hey, and he is, isn’t he?

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
And

Rossy:
Eh.

Curly:
knowing Simon as well as I do, he has gone deep. So

Tave:
Oh.

Curly:
here we go. Sale of the century, Simon.

Tave:
Jesus Christ.

Curly:
Yeah, I’m glad that’s for you guys.

Tave:
I’m just going to let that go through to you, Rossy, first.

Rossy:
I just suspect there’d probably be some activism going on.

Curly:
GAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Tave:
Yeah, okay.

Rossy:
Yeah, that’s what I’d be doing. I’d be out rabble rousing and causing trouble.

Tave:
Okay.

Rossy:
Eh, that’s right.

Curly:
which is only slightly different to what you do now.

Rossy:
Agitating for change.

Curly:
Yeah, positive

Rossy:
Yeah,

Curly:
change.

Rossy:
positive change, that’s right. Incremental change as soon as practically possible.

Curly:
Hahaha!

Tave:
Oh wow. Hang on a sec. Incremental change as soon

Curly:
Ha!

Tave:
as practically possible.

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
Can we get that in the

Curly:
okay.

Tave:
Python? Uh,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
um,

Curly:
What

Tave:
I’d probably

Curly:
about you, Braggie?

Tave:
be, I reckon I’d probably, it’d have to be something to do with my hands, like, I don’t know, being a bit of chippy building furniture or fucking pottery, I don’t know, something like that, I think.

Curly:
Okay, because you

Tave:
That’s

Curly:
are

Tave:
it.

Curly:
quite skilled in that area too, aren’t you?

Tave:
I think I am I try

Curly:
You

Tave:
to be

Curly:
used to,

Tave:
but I’ve

Curly:
you

Tave:
got

Curly:
used

Tave:
no

Curly:
to,

Tave:
training

Curly:
you

Tave:
but

Curly:
used

Tave:
that’s

Curly:
to.

Tave:
yeah if there

Curly:
Sometimes

Tave:
was no

Curly:
that’s

Tave:
music

Curly:
best,

Tave:
and I

Curly:
training.

Tave:
did that yeah all right I don’t know I’d be a washed-up cricketer or something I don’t know

Rossy:
Sportskommentar.

Curly:
Because you have you ever, you know, have you ever scored a century tape?

Tave:
Yeah, I could have scored a few of those. Yeah.

Curly:
Oh, the most I ever got was a half century

Tave:
In

Curly:
on

Tave:
junior

Curly:
a very

Tave:
cricket.

Curly:
small ground. And you Rossi,

Rossy:
now.

Curly:
did we, you’re a cricketer.

Rossy:
I was excited to get into double figures.

Tave:
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I’m out.

Curly:
Alright.

Rossy:
I just get out there and just want to hit everything.

Curly:
Hahaha!

Rossy:
It would be like 16 or 0 for me.

Curly:
All righty. So our next video question is from someone who hasn’t been on the podcast yet. So,

Tave:
Huh?

Curly:
but from Mick and Ursula. So we’ve had, of course, Mick on the podcast, but we

Tave:
Yes.

Curly:
haven’t managed yet to get both Mick and Ursula. This is a question from Ursula, and it’s to the panel, but it’s probably more aligned to you guys. So let’s see what happens.

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Curly:
Um, the product placement, the Miqmadu and mesmerize

Tave:
Beautiful.

Curly:
the shirt. So beautiful. And.

Rossy:
There was a post-it behind and he’s wearing one of my t-shirts in it too.

Tave:
Ha ha ha ha ha

Curly:
So we cannot wait to get Mick and Ursula on

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
the podcast.

Tave:
we’ve got to get them

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
on. It’s going to be awesome.

Rossy:
there. It’ll be great fun, good fun.

Curly:
lots of fun. So who was your inspiration? Who did you see on Countdown TV or? Whoever wants to go first, don’t fight boys.

Rossy:
Look,

Tave:
I just…

Rossy:
I’ll go first.

Tave:
yeah, you go first.

Rossy:
I was 14. I saw Richie Blackmore’s Rainbow at the Horton Pavilion in Sydney. And there was a petrol strike on, so you couldn’t get petrol. And what happened was Richie came out for the encore, but didn’t set fire to his guitar. And there was a riot in the Horton Pavilion and they were pulling chairs over and doing everything. And I thought, that sounds like fun. That seems like fun. I’d like to do more of that.

Tave:
Cool.

Rossy:
you

Curly:
Ehhhhhh

Tave:
I think I was probably

Rossy:
Ronnie

Tave:
a bit…

Rossy:
Dio was singing for me that night.

Tave:
Oh, wow. Yeah, that’s gonna be cool. What a voice. I reckon I was about eight or nine because I had an older brother, he was already into music and he had a fair final collection. And one of the ones I really loved was status quo on the level. And then I remember seeing them on countdown. And then I didn’t have a guitar. I didn’t have a guitar until I was about 10. But I did have my brother’s, remember they used to do tech drawing, had the old T square?

Tave:
He

Rossy:
Yep.

Tave:
said, a big, like a big

Rossy:
Yep.

Tave:
wooden, big wooden T square. So I used to grab that and

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
stand in front of the mirror. And then when I saw it, status quo, and I saw him doing that. You know, together. Oh fuck, that’s fucking, that’s what I wanna do. So I’d stand in front of the mirror with the T-square. Yeah.

Curly:
So for the audio listeners, imagine Tave just doing the old status quo

Tave:
When the bass player and

Curly:
movement.

Tave:
the guitar player two or three of them are all going

Curly:
All

Tave:
back

Curly:
in

Tave:
and forth

Curly:
unison.

Tave:
the same in unison.

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
Yeah

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
And then they are doing that Coles ad.

Tave:
Yeah, hey, you know what,

Curly:
Ehhhhhh…

Tave:
Rossi, I saw them at Byron Bay at the Byron Bay Rism, Blues and Roots

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
and they were came on before everyone was there because San Tarnama and Paul Simon. Anyway, there was a big night and I would stand the credit was packed inside, it was raining outside as usually does it. Byron was packed inside this

Curly:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
tent and there was these two young fellows next to me who said as far as about come on, they were doing the are down down prices. down, well they came out and they just took the roof off that joint. They started with down down and they just

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
ripped it up. I loved it.

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
Hehehehehehe

Curly:
Yeah. It’s still and I mentioned live aid videos earlier

Tave:
Yes.

Curly:
and that was the only way you could start live

Tave:
Rocking

Curly:
aid with

Tave:
all

Curly:
status

Tave:
over the world.

Curly:
quo rockin’ over all.

Tave:
Ah.

Rossy:
Yeah, well, we did a festival in Spain, they were on the bill and they came out on stage, it was in the Basque country

Tave:
Yep.

Rossy:
and he came out and he spoke to them in Spanish and they didn’t receive it all that well.

Tave:
Yep.

Rossy:
Then he just goes, well, it’s the last bit of fucking Spanish, you’ll get out of me tonight.

Tave:
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Rossy:
But they were just fucking working class

Curly:
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Rossy:
rock and rollers, man. It

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
was great. They were great.

Tave:
I kind of relate them to ACDC. They just, they didn’t want to do, I just want to play rock and roll. Nothing out of the ordinary. They didn’t want to dress up. Wear my denim

Rossy:
Nice.

Tave:
and just play rock and roll.

Rossy:
No.

Tave:
You got to admire that.

Curly:
you

Rossy:
Yeah, look, you know what

Tave:
You

Rossy:
you’ve got. You’re not gonna get a ballot out of him.

Tave:
Nah. Ha ha ha ha

Curly:
Mind

Tave:
ha. Nice guy.

Curly:
you,

Tave:
Nah.

Curly:
Living on an Island on whatever album that was. Living on an Island. It’s

Tave:
Oh yeah,

Curly:
just a beautiful song. That’s

Tave:
maybe.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
beautiful acoustic songs.

Tave:
Yeah, you’re not getting

Curly:
All righty.

Tave:
George Martin to put any strings on one of their records,

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
are you? Ha ha ha ha ha.

Rossy:
Oh

Curly:
Alrighty.

Rossy:
no.

Curly:
Another good friend of the podcast is a gentleman

Tave:
Bye.

Curly:
we know as Waxey. So

Tave:
Oh

Curly:
he’s

Tave:
my

Curly:
a…

Tave:
best mate, here he comes.

Curly:
He sent us a question and as for the want of Braggie’s mates, they’re all extra deep. So here we go. This is Waxey.

Tave:
Fuckin

Curly:
You gotta love

Tave:
hell.

Curly:
him. Gotta love him.

Tave:
Oh god, I don’t know what you guys are thinking but we got Who’s,

Curly:
Hahaha!

Tave:
well, there’s two bass players. You playing bass Rossy?

Rossy:
It’s up to you mate, I’ll have a crack at guitar if

Tave:
Uh,

Rossy:
you need me to.

Tave:
okay, okay. What do you want, Kelly?

Curly:
triangle or something.

Tave:
I’m thinking

Rossy:
He’s

Tave:
we could…

Rossy:
singer, he’s the front man.

Tave:
Yeah, you got definitely the front, man.

Curly:
Can I just say Waxie, I think if there’s going to be the occasional song in the set that would resonate with all three of us, it’s potentially the Sunday session style music.

Tave:
See,

Curly:
Maybe

Tave:
I’m thinking a bit of…

Curly:
sitting around a campfire, smoking ceremony, maybe having a couple of cold beers, tuning out to some acoustic stuff.

Tave:
Oh, but yeah, but…

Rossy:
Dillonish.

Tave:
I don’t know what you reckon. I’m thinking

Curly:
Outside of that, it’s grunge.

Tave:
like Mick and Ursula like punk country.

Curly:
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Rossy:
Yeah,

Tave:
Country

Rossy:
we could do

Tave:
punk,

Rossy:
that!

Tave:
country punk I’m reckon.

Curly:
Like a

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
bit of, like the Johnnys?

Tave:
Yeah,

Rossy:
Ooh,

Tave:
maybe

Rossy:
what?

Tave:
yeah.

Rossy:
Yeah, I like

Curly:
They

Rossy:
the Johnnys.

Curly:
tell me you’re pretty good. Don’t you know you’re in now neighborhood?

Tave:
There’s…

Curly:
Ha ha ha

Tave:
Yeah, yeah.

Rossy:
Gotta be

Curly:

Rossy:

Curly:
Ha

Rossy:
throw

Curly:

Rossy:
down.

Curly:

Rossy:
Oh,

Curly:
ha.

Rossy:
I’m actually seeing Hoodie on Friday night,

Tave:
Listen,

Rossy:
actually.

Tave:
we’d cut each other down to size. Something’s been missing.

Rossy:
Oh, yeah. You see?

Tave:
What’s that song? That’s

Rossy:
Bit

Tave:
my

Rossy:
of

Tave:
favorite.

Rossy:
cow

Curly:
Ahem.

Rossy:
pun.

Curly:
Ahem.

Tave:
Kale Punk.

Curly:
Side-

Rossy:
Yeah,

Tave:
Kale Punk,

Rossy:

Tave:
Waxy.

Rossy:

Tave:
Kale Punk, Waxy.

Rossy:
Cow punk waxing. Yeah,

Curly:

Rossy:

Tave:
Yep,

Curly:

Tave:
I’m

Curly:

Tave:
in.

Curly:
down strikes. And

Rossy:
All dance strikes. All dance strikes.

Tave:
Or down

Curly:
so,

Tave:
strokes.

Rossy:
I’m sorry.

Tave:
Hey, actually, clearly

Curly:
so.

Tave:
that’s, that’s one of the problems we encountered me upsetting the guests.

Rossy:
Hahaha!

Curly:
No,

Rossy:
Oof.

Curly:
I think Chris enjoyed his time on the show. So

Tave:
I think

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
so too.

Curly:
I think he was more upset about Hush thing than you.

Rossy:
HAHAHAHA!

Tave:
Thanks for watching!

Rossy:
Oh, how obituary he was!

Tave:
Oh

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Curly:
We were listening to shit like Hush.

Tave:
Oh yeah.

Curly:
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Tave:
Ha ha.

Rossy:
And he would say, there would be a disdainful look you would get.

Curly:
Yeah, no, we loved our interview with Chris and hopefully we can have a chat to him when he comes back to Australia. That would be awesome. I think we’ve grown since then, Bragi, would you

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
say?

Tave:
yeah, I think so. Yeah, a

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
little bit more confident.

Curly:
we were so nervous, Rossy, talking

Rossy:
But

Curly:
to

Rossy:
yeah,

Curly:
someone like Chris Mazowak.

Tave:
Oh,

Rossy:
Maz,

Tave:
Mazowek,

Rossy:
yeah.

Tave:
yeah. Yeah.

Rossy:
Look, it can be a bit intimidating.

Tave:
Yeah, he’s just

Curly:
I

Tave:
so

Curly:
just

Tave:
smart.

Curly:
think he’s knowledge.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
He could talk about, he was talking about European history and,

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
you know, all these people massing

Rossy:
Damn.

Curly:
on the borders in ancient ruins. And I’m just sitting here thinking, this guy stands on stage for the Screaming Tribes when he’s one of the best guitarists I’ve ever seen.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
And here he is talking about Roman history.

Rossy:
Yeah, yeah, it’s always a free ranging discussion with our mate, Maz.

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
Oh, absolutely. Sorry. Absolutely. So Waxie, I hope that answered your question. One of our favorite little segments that we’ve had is with a band called Pocket Watch and we love

Tave:
AHAH!

Curly:
these guys. And they’ve got a pretty in-depth question for us. So…

Tave:
They got the

Rossy:
Hahahaha

Tave:
fucking attitude, haven’t they? Already. You know what I mean?

Rossy:
Oh yeah,

Tave:
That’s all you need. Ha

Rossy:
oh

Tave:
ha

Rossy:
yeah

Tave:
ha.

Rossy:
I know.

Curly:
You can’t.

Rossy:
Now my guess is my favourite band at Punchbowl can’t be the hard-on so it might be the Ramrods, Paul Keating used to manage them, he was our local

Tave:
Oh,

Rossy:
member.

Tave:
well, like I had to

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Tave:
actually,

Curly:
I actually do.

Tave:
you go, Curly.

Curly:
Yeah, you go. No,

Tave:
I said

Curly:
you

Tave:
I

Curly:
go.

Tave:
had to look it up to see what other, and I think actually I do remember somewhere on the line, I think Rossi might’ve said that the hard ons came from there. So I’m gonna say

Rossy:
Good dude.

Tave:
at the moment it’s the hard ons, but soon to be replaced by pocket watch.

Rossy:
I’m going

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
to

Tave:
Once

Rossy:
go ahead

Tave:
that EP

Rossy:
and close

Curly:
And

Tave:
is

Rossy:
the

Tave:
out.

Rossy:
video.

Curly:
look, and once again, I did some Googling around best bands that come out of Punchbowl. And unfortunately, there’s not a lot of to choose

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Curly:
from. But one of the things that I found was this legacy that the Hard Ons have, like Punchbowl stayed high.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
There’s bands that are coming through there all the time, and most of them are named after the room of their music teacher, I think they’re

Rossy:
Yeah, 320.

Curly:
called, yeah that’s it.

Rossy:
320.

Curly:
So,

Rossy:
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Curly:
and there’s a real history and a legacy that the Hardons have left with that school and I think that is such a cool thing.

Rossy:
They went back there not long ago, actually.

Curly:
Gah?

Rossy:
But I will say that of the bands I’ve seen in Punchball, I actually saw XTC play Punchball.

Curly:
Okay.

Tave:
Wow, okay.

Rossy:
and the Romantics, the Romantics, who did

Tave:
Oh,

Rossy:
what I like about you on that tour,

Tave:
yep.

Curly:
That would

Rossy:
and

Curly:
have

Rossy:
they

Curly:
been cool.

Rossy:
were a Detroit, Detroit rock and roll band.

Curly:
Alright.

Rossy:
And sadly, I do think currently, yeah, the Hard Ons haven’t been to Punchbowl for a while, so Pocket Watch are still actually playing here.

Curly:
So just for our listeners, the odds that the closing song this episode might be one of the best bands that came out of Punchbowl. So

Rossy:
Hehehehehehe

Curly:
we’ll

Tave:
Woo!

Curly:
see what we can dig up. So do we agree? It’s the hard-ons, it’s not the ramrods.

Rossy:
Yeah, it is. No, no.

Tave:
Only

Rossy:
Yeah,

Tave:
for a

Rossy:
it’s

Tave:
little

Rossy:
a hard

Tave:
while,

Rossy:
answer.

Tave:
only for a little, their time is limited, I think.

Curly:
Yeah, absolutely. We’re going to see

Rossy:
I was

Curly:
that.

Rossy:
actually, they’re doing some more recording. They’re in the studio on Saturday and Angus was doing some guitar guidelines. And he played them. He said, what do you think? I said, well, I think, you know, what I think is yeah, yeah, yeah. When we do, when I track the actual line, it’ll be all downstrokes.

Rossy:
Thanks for watching!

Curly:
Oh my god. All right. We’ve got two more questions to go. And these are from absolute favorites of ours on the podcast. The first one is from a great friend of ours who is in Nashville, Tennessee.

Tave:
Ah.

Curly:
And Braggie says she’s the hardest, one of the hardest working ladies in country music,

Tave:
Absolutely.

Curly:
you

Tave:
She

Curly:
I

Tave:
is

Curly:
love

Tave:
just…

Curly:
the way she says, is it, was it someone I’d know or someone back in the day? Was she having a dig at our age there

Tave:
I think

Curly:
at all,

Tave:
so.

Curly:
Braggie?

Tave:
I think so. But how? She’s just always positive. She’s always up.

Curly:
Yeah, she is. So before I’m going to Rossi, how would you answer that? If you saw yourself on stage with a country music band, which band would that be?

Rossy:
I’d want to play with an outlaw country band I reckon, but I wouldn’t mind having a crack with Dwight Yoakam. Eh.

Curly:
Yes, yes, you’re a man after my heart, Rossi.

Rossy:
Good tell us in Cadillacs, man.

Curly:
One of the best albums ever. So, yeah.

Rossy:
It is, it is.

Curly:
All right.

Tave:
Um…

Curly:
So who are you going for, Braggie?

Tave:
You know what? I looked at this question yesterday because you sent them through. So I can’t, it’s not off the top of my head. But this is one of the few that I just straight away, bang, the Dixie chicks without

Rossy:
Good.

Tave:
a problem. They got, they’re politically

Curly:
Why?

Tave:
aware because they’re politically aware for a country band for a start, which I really like and

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
great harmonies. I just love them. And they got a good sense of humor too. die.

Rossy:
They’re

Tave:
Have

Rossy:
good.

Tave:
you heard

Rossy:
Those

Tave:
that song? I love the Dixie

Rossy:
women

Tave:
Chicks.

Rossy:
are good. They’re a good band, man. They’re great

Tave:
Solid ass

Rossy:
players,

Tave:
man.

Rossy:
aren’t they?

Tave:
They’re all great musos as well, not just singers. And

Rossy:
Yeah. Yeah.

Tave:
yeah, without a doubt Dixie Chicks. I’m there.

Rossy:
Nice, nice answer.

Tave:
Thank you.

Rossy:
Yeah, I’ll join you.

Tave:
Okay.

Rossy:
What would be the rhythm section?

Tave:
Two

Rossy:
Do

Tave:
bass

Rossy:
you want

Tave:
players.

Rossy:
me to drum? You can play bass. Now you play bass, old drum. Old drum country’s just two and four in it.

Tave:
That’s it,

Curly:
So

Tave:
man.

Curly:
there you go. There you go, Alison. The two boys are joining up with the Dixie chicks. So that’s pretty cool. Our last question, and you may have noticed for those watching on the video that we’ve had Alison three times on the podcast.

Tave:
Yes,

Curly:
And

Tave:
I saw that.

Curly:
no doubt we will enjoy her company again. The next gentleman that we have, and this is the last question, the final question was, believe outside of Braggie was the first person we had musically on the podcast, a gentleman called Sean Fraser from the Ritzy Kids. He’s also been on the podcast three times.

Tave:
Shawnee Bear.

Curly:
And the man with the worst internet in the world.

Tave:
Hehehehehehehehe

Curly:
And here’s his question.

Rossy:
Hey!

Tave:
Ah, good boy.

Curly:
He’s curious.

Tave:
Who’s going first here?

Curly:
I was just

Rossy:
You

Curly:
going

Rossy:
got

Curly:
to

Rossy:
this.

Curly:
say, I was just

Tave:
All got

Curly:
about,

Tave:
this.

Curly:
my top

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
three would be Bragi, Rossi, and whoever was the bass player in the cure. So no, that was my initial thought. But anyway, back, we’ll go to Bragi first. Top three, mate. Top

Tave:
have

Curly:
three

Tave:
to say

Curly:
bass

Tave:
I

Curly:
players.

Tave:
have to say the inflictor from the psychic

Rossy:
No.

Tave:
like turnbuckles would have to be no

Rossy:
I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Yeah.

Curly:
and

Tave:
I tell

Curly:
no

Tave:
you what

Curly:
one knows who any of those

Tave:
no no

Curly:
psychotic turnbuckles are.

Tave:
that’s my number four that’s my number four I started from four look

Curly:
He was too close not to mention.

Tave:
This is a hard question. I had to really think about this as I’m glad you sent this

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
one through first. So I’m going to go with one, probably a lot of people, place players would, cause I’m originally a bass player. I’m still there. I can’t play guitar for shit, but I’m James Jameson the way he moved around and all those Motown hits, uh, just,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
just incredible, just melodic. And I think even he influenced McCartney as well. It made McCartney instead

Rossy:
We

Tave:
of playing.

Rossy:
talk about him

Tave:
You’re gone.

Rossy:
at work a fair bit because he’s famous for saying, so what sort of strings do you use on your bass? He goes, they were on it when I bought it.

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
Wow.

Tave:
there you go. So yeah, so

Rossy:
Ehh

Tave:
he’s in the top three. There’s another guy, I

Rossy:
Oh

Tave:
don’t

Rossy:
yeah.

Tave:
know if Rossi might know, but I don’t know if other people know, it’s a guy called Jerry Schiff, who played with Elvis when Elvis was doing the Vegas time, not when he was

Rossy:
Mm-hmm.

Tave:
really fat, but when he just going Jerry Schiff, just he just move, he had walking bases. When Elvis was doing covers of like Proud Mary, I just love that sort of shit. He’s an amazing player.

Rossy:
Yeah. Oh yeah.

Tave:
And I think he played with Chicago. Was that his son? Not sure.

Rossy:
Yeah, I think so.

Tave:
Yeah. Then I don’t know if you guys into jazz much, but there’s a piano player called Oscar Peterson and he had a bass player called Ray Brown, upright bass player. And I love him as well. Listen, the people listening, check all those three guys. I’m gonna throw one more in. There’s a band called Vulfpeck and Joe Dart. He’s only recent,

Rossy:
Mm.

Tave:
he’s fucking amazing. So type in Joe

Curly:
Mmm.

Tave:
Dart, have a look at him.

Rossy:
Yeah. As a bass player again, I’ve got a few. Now, of course, I can’t not mention Sir Paul. Sir Paul McCartney

Tave:
Thanks for watching!

Rossy:
is, you know, did it all, invented stuff and

Tave:
Yep.

Rossy:
wrote stuff and did stuff. You just got to have Paul. Paul’s got to be in my list.

Tave:
Yep.

Rossy:
Another one, I really like it. It’s funny you mentioned, you know, the I love Stanley Clark.

Tave:
Aw yeah.

Rossy:
Like man, like he was an 18 year old prodigy. He was just Billy Cobbins playing for him and John McLaughlin and everybody in the world just blew his mind.

Tave:
Yes.

Rossy:
But then you just take a complete sharp, hard turn left. And my number one bass player is Ian Lemmy Kilmister,

Tave:
Tá que?

Rossy:
King of Motorhead, King of Motorhead,

Tave:
Yeah!

Rossy:
ex-Hawkwind, the greatest bass player of all time. Do not. that was not rock and roll without Lemmy. Lemmy said about the Rolling Stones, he said, I don’t know why you run thought they’re hard men. I grew up with the Beatles. The Beatles were Ringo’s from Dingley, which is like the Liverpool’s version of the Bronx. The Rolling Stones were just poses and moved to London and went to art school. I know who I’d want to have in a fight with on my side

Rossy:
and that’s the Beatles. That’s why I love Lemmy. But in my honorable

Tave:
Yes.

Rossy:
guy called Phil Hall, who was in the Drop Bears,

Curly:
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Rossy:
the

Tave:
Oh.

Rossy:
Lime Spiders. He’s playing with John Kennedy. If you’ve heard of John Kennedy,

Curly:
Yeah

Rossy:
who, yep, he’s my favorite Australian bass player

Tave:
That’s what

Rossy:
is

Tave:
I’m gonna check out

Rossy:
Uncle

Tave:
then. That’s

Rossy:
Phil

Tave:
what

Rossy:
Hall.

Tave:
I don’t know.

Rossy:
Filthy

Rossy:
Phil Hall played the Lime Spiders and the Drop Bears and he is, I love him. He’s my favorite. He’s got the best collection of basses I know.

Curly:
Mmm,

Tave:
Okay.

Curly:
excellent. Well.

Tave:
I reckon Lemmy’s got a lot of down strikes in his base plan.

Curly:
Hahaha

Rossy:
Oh, boys, let me go down the strokes. Oh, I know a chick. I know a chick went to the rainbow in LA where he kind of had a, he had a spot at the bar. She said she was stealing there and there was this smell

Curly:
Hmm.

Rossy:
and she went, what hell is that? She turned around. It was him.

Tave:
Ha ha! Oh, Levy. Has

Curly:
Ah,

Tave:
anybody

Curly:
it’s beautiful.

Tave:
got a statue there at the rainbow? He’s got a statue in front

Rossy:
He

Tave:
of

Rossy:
has

Tave:
the rainbow.

Rossy:
got a statue of the rainbow, yeah,

Tave:
Ah,

Rossy:
yeah.

Tave:
it’s so good.

Rossy:
He

Curly:
So.

Rossy:
was so rock and roll, so rock and roll.

Curly:
So when I thought about bass players, all I could really think about, because I’m not as in tuned into it as to you guys, the bass line in Primary by The Cure is just one of my all

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
time favorites. So I have no idea who the bass player was that laid that down. But it’s great.

Tave:
I don’t even know

Curly:
The

Tave:
that.

Curly:
scientists in Swampland, there’s a

Rossy:
and

Curly:
reoccurring bass line sitting in there. know if I’ve got to name three people I’d have to go one of my favorite bands, Screaming Tribes, and Bob Wackley who’s a Townsville boy I believe.

Tave:
No.

Rossy:
He is, Bobby.

Curly:
So we’ll go Bob, we’ll go for Paul Simonon from The Clash,

Rossy:
Yes, stop it.

Tave:
Yes?

Curly:
and we’ll finish the the list with Bruce Foxton from The Jam.

Rossy:
Yes, three very good choices.

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
you know

Curly:
so.

Tave:
what you’re doing. You know what you’re doing, Kelly.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Curly:
Without as much depth as you guys and you guys get into the intricacies, I just love to see these guys.

Rossy:
You’ve got a style. There’s a certain style that weaves through those three guys.

Curly:
Yeah, yeah. So,

Tave:
That was fun.

Curly:
who am I?

Tave:
Oh,

Curly:
Here comes

Tave:
fuck.

Curly:
the final part.

Rossy:
One more.

Curly:
Oh, you’d forgotten. Ha ha ha ha

Tave:
I

Curly:
ha

Tave:
did,

Curly:
ha.

Rossy:
AHHHHH!

Tave:
I did. Okay, you’re right. Where do we leave off? Oh, he just become a roadie for the band called The Group that had

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
Brian Cadden.

Curly:
Yep.

Tave:
Early in 1966, I walked into the office of Tony Schaubel, the editor of GoSet, a weekly pop newspaper, and asked for a job. I began sweeping floors. Eventually, I was asked to contribute, and my first printed interview was with Johnny Young, a singer-songwriter from Perth. Soon, I was writing a weekly gossip column and regular features. My writing style was free-form ramblings, always in the first person and nearly always concerning aspects of the music scene Later that year, when the group landed a record deal with CBS, I followed them to Melbourne’s Armstrong Studios where I learned record producing and engineering techniques from studio owner Bill Armstrong. In January 1968, I relocated to London reporting for GOSET and extended my networking contacts by meeting Apple Corporation’s executive Terry Doran, who introduced me to my idols Lennon and McCartney. In September, I became the manager and the producer of Russell Morris and produced Morris’s single,

Rossy:
real

Tave:
a

Rossy:
thing.

Tave:
Johnny Young composed song, The Real Thing. Returning to Australia

Rossy:
What a ripoff.

Tave:
in the early 70s, I continued writing for the music press and producing, eventually making the best career move of my life by taking up an offer from the ABC to be the talent coordinator and subsequent host of pop music show Countdown. My name is My name is…

Curly:
Molly Meldrum.

Tave:
Yes.

Rossy:
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEE Yeah!

Tave:
Well done, Kelly! That’s two in a row.

Curly:
Mate,

Rossy:
Eh.

Curly:
it was only bloody the last bit. I had no idea about the rest, so.

Rossy:
The real thing is a piece of art.

Curly:
Gay!

Rossy:
It was

Tave:
Yeah.

Rossy:
anti-Vietnam. But

Tave:
Look.

Rossy:
Ronnie Burns. I’m like,

Tave:
Is that

Rossy:
great.

Tave:
where you figured it?

Rossy:
Yeah,

Tave:
Ross,

Rossy:
Ronnie Burns,

Tave:
yeah.

Rossy:
I got it.

Tave:
Look,

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
I get my info from, most of it’s from Wikipedia, right? But other places, but

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
I had to cut out, there was just so much, it’s such a fascinating read. If you go to Wikipedia and read about Molly’s.

Rossy:
He’s done so much

Tave:
Oh, it’s

Rossy:
stuff that guy.

Tave:
mind blowing.

Rossy:
He has done so

Tave:

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:

Curly:
Wow.

Rossy:
Yeah.

Tave:
produced Colleen Newitz. Yeah, fuck it’s just, yeah. Incredible.

Rossy:
day by day.

Curly:
It is a huge legacy to Australian music in

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
Molly Meldrum.

Rossy:
He’s been a booster, although he did sign in Decent Obsession.

Curly:
Yeah, yeah.

Tave:
Yeah, but it’s alright. And

Rossy:
Hey,

Tave:
super naught,

Rossy:
that’s

Tave:
and super naught.

Rossy:
my point. Everyone makes mistakes. That’s right.

Curly:
Do yourselves a favor.

Tave:
I just like his balls.

Rossy:
Ah, yeah.

Tave:
I just like his balls. With everything he did, he just went, I can fucking do that. Just walked in and go, yeah, I can do it. You know,

Rossy:
Oh

Tave:
I

Rossy:
good.

Tave:
just, that’s what I love about him.

Rossy:
It reminds me of the story, yes, of Robert Heltman, the

Tave:
Yes,

Rossy:
dancer,

Tave:
yeah.

Rossy:
ballet dancer, right? He’d had three, count them, three dancing lessons before he set up his own dancing school.

Tave:
There you go.

Rossy:
He was teaching them in the fourth lesson what he learned in the first. Like,

Tave:
There you go.

got through it!

Curly:
Well, and thanks

Tave:
Thanks for watching!

Curly:
to Rob Stannia, what a great

Tave:
Yes, that

Curly:
idea.

Tave:
was his idea. That’s right, we should

Rossy:
Eh!

Tave:
pay some respects there.

Curly:
Yeah,

Tave:
Well done, Robbie.

Curly:
respects to Rob. So your thoughts? Diving

Tave:
Uhhhh

Curly:
deep into some of those answers, gentlemen.

Tave:
Look, my thoughts, I’m just looking forward to another 100 episodes. And I think we just need to make these things come to fruition. Paul Kelly and you know,

Curly:
Yeah.

Tave:
we need to make that happen

Curly:
Yeah.

Rossy:
Make

Tave:
somehow.

Rossy:
a new issue out.

Curly:
So if there’s links out there in the audience and friends of a friend of a friend of a friend, just let’s make them happen. Put it out to the universe. It’d be awesome to get. I’d love to. As I was saying, Ignatius Jones would be just awesome. So I think his story. So.

Rossy:
Thank you. I love Ignatius.

Curly:
Yeah, he’s considering what he was like on stage with Jimmy and the boys to

Tave:
Yeah.

Curly:
who he is now is just incredible.

Rossy:
I’m just not sure he’s changed much.

Curly:
Yeah, I think probably deep down there’s, but still anyway. So episode 100, we’re gonna take a little break because I’m running the Boston Marathon. So 101 will be more towards maybe the end of April. So please

Tave:
Okay.

Curly:
dig into some of those episodes especially if you’re watching on

Rossy:

Tave:
Yeah,

Curly:
it,

Tave:
awesome. Made the show.

Curly:
yeah, it just really, it humbles me when you reach out and you put out a request the next day you’ve got a video there from someone that you just enjoy interacting. It’s amazing. So don’t forget our community song. It’s on our Facebook page. We really want to drive a great Australian classic, about Australia, a great Australian classic, the servo pie. Any ideas whatsoever, you just send them through and somehow we’ll get them into a song We’re not going to make anyone rich out of the song. I might just throw that out there. But

Tave:
Aye, you never know.

Curly:
you never know. But you may at least be able to say, check this song out on Spotify and check out the song credits on it, because my

Tave:
