And still they play. The band that introduced us to Texas Blues and “Sharp Dressed” Men are off to Chile to play a benefit concert on May 26th. Be there.
I saw ZZ TOP in Australia back in the 80’s and was simply blown away. 3 guys and what a sound. A power trio of immense proportions and skill. Billy, Dusty and Frank (he’s the one without the beard, last name Beard!) will certainly blow Chile away with their seemingly endless list of hits from their ever lengthening list of albums.
ZZ Top rock and roll with the best of them and seem ageless as they roll out hit after hit. Rarely pausing to take a breath Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill will once again hit the stage with Frank Beard ( he has no beard! LOL) for the Chile gig.

Midnight Oil the great Aussie rock band from the 70’s 80’s and 90’s spawned the Labor Politician Peter Garrett. not surprising really as the majority of their songs were political in some way or other.
I never saw Midnight Oil live in Australia. I guess the whole Midnight Oil politics thing didn’t grab me then. I like a lot of their songs. As songs. Not as political statements.
These days Peter Garrett from Midnight Oil is a Labor Minister for something. I hope that he is doing what he protested about via his music for 3 decades.

Bon Jovi certainly made an impact back in the 80s with their “Slippery when wet” album. They have hardly stopped since. Different Jon Bon jovi projects and ritchie sambora projects intertwine with Bon Jovi the band. This creates a body of work that is certainly more than respectable. Its power pop, stadium rock, call it what you want there are some great tunes and great rock over the last over 20 years..
Touring right now so Bon Jovi Tickets as low as $50 at StubHub!

When they told us back in 1974 that the band coming to our school dance was a band called AC/DC we had no idea what we were about to experience. The beginning of one of the all time great Rock bands. The beginning of one of the great Heavy Metal guitarists career. We had no idea that this is what we were seeing! 35 years later people are in awe when I tell them about seeing ACDC in concert at our school dance.
AC/DC rocked us and rolled us. Angus Young wore his shorts and school uniform and Bon Scott was the lead singer. What a night at the Avalon Community center in Sydney Australia. This was the only time that I ever saw ACDC I was about 16 years old and it was 1974 at my school dance.( Actually the S.A.P.A dance for the Students Association of the Pittwater Area)
AC/DC is touring right now with their BlackIce tour. Visit their website www.ACDC.com to find out details. Here are some reviews of the AC/DC gigs

It seems like a lifetime ago that we all headed out to the Sydney showground to see KISS live. I have no memory of who the support band was but I do remember being disappointed when the soundcheck track of Whole Lotta Love by Led Zeppelin was cut short for KISS to come onstage. Oh well.
The KISS gig was good. As expected with lots of glitz and glam and Rock’n'Roll. Main memory was ACE shooting his guitar rocket or fireworks high into the air.
A great gig. And they are still doing it. What a great band.
