I still remember on one of the Rifles tours in QLD when I and Damo went to get the money from the Promoter and went into this building and Damo looks at me and says with his fingers in her pocket, This look like a gun? and at that moment kicks the door open and ask the boss for the payment for tonights show the guy says no, so Damo lets him have it with the old finger in the pocket trick and screams out give us our money a few times and waves his fingers around the room, the guy gives up the cash and Damo says to run for your life to the van. we got to the van and made a great getaway and the band and crew can eat tonight. RIP Damo.
Excellent, one of Australia's finest. - The living room makes a great set for this - gotta love the strategically placed copy of "Raw Power" on the turntable. Thanks for posting.
Great song. I first saw the video when I was about 12 or 13, back when you could turn the TV on at midnight and expect to hear some good, varied, and unusual music. I have never been into vocals that much as a rule, but the way in which this vocalist got his point across then shut up and let the rest of the band convey the mood between verses meant I remember this song long after I have forgotten many, many others I saw at the time.
Not just the song but the Beatbox intro brings back a lot of memories of growing up in 80's Australia. I used to like the interviews between songs and I'm sure if you watched them now, it would provide an interesting insight into society back then. I remember that everyone was a something, whether a headbanger, lemon, trendy, punk, wog (like me), wesite or some other label.
