I know quite well my comment will be removed. The current lineup and franchise of this band using the name LRB have not written any of the original hits. They might own the name but not the original vocal and song writting members. To me this lineup is just a cover band. I'd like to see you try and tour Australia. The original line up were an all Australian lineup until the American legal system allowedcthis to happen
Tribute band only - fake band Real band members who are the founding members and main songwriters / harmonies are Beeb Birtles, Graeham Gobles and Glen Shorrick are Australian No John Lennon No George Harrison No Beatles Wayne is a fine musician and excellent on Night Owls but is not Little River Band This USA cover band is just that Living a lie
A pertinent name for these blokes would be the American LRB similar to the most well known Pink Floyd cover band are called the Australian Pink Floyd Show that tour all over the world.
First off I am a boomer and a classic rock fan. This video demonstrates exactly why I don’t attend classic rock shows anymore. They are brands nothing more. As a musician I personally find it distasteful when this is done. If they identified as a tribute band (which they are) I wouldn’t be. The Grass Roots, their recorded introduction talks about their gold records etc… then the tribute band walks out. They had nothing to do with it, but they have no shame doing it.
If only, an American Promoter takes it upon himself to promote Beeb Birtles, Graeham Gobles and Glen Shorrock and EDUCATE the NEW FANS on whom these people are and what these people mean to the real LRB,Nelson and crew will disappear very quickly.The way I perceive it is, America know and love The Little River Band. Unfortunately, MOST PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW THE NAMES OF THE ORIGINAL BAND MEMBERS. Beeb Birtles, Graeham Gobles and Glen Shorrock are still performing and at the highest level may I add, in Australia and selling out concerts. Yet these fraudulent wanna be's continue to cash in on the hard work and talent of Birtles, Shorrock and Gobles.Of this I am sure, that should the trio and their band tour America,they would truly explode. Let the American public/fans get a taste of the real SOUND OF THE LITTLE RIVER BAND.
Those guys? They have names Nelson, you are so shallow that you can't even call out their names, you don't even allow the original guys to come to America and perform, no respect for u at all sir
Fake LRB just stop , you will never be the real LRB you robbed the other members , I wouldn't go to see you if it was free and across the road from my house ( wannabes)can't believe someone would even interview you this channel just lost a person who loves music because of this .
That’s not the little River band BSG is the little River Band Wayne’s right- it’s about the music That music was not written by him or anyone in that current band The real writers of those beautiful vocal & guitar harmonies are Birtles, Shorrock & Goeble
How can this guy interview him in good faith when - unless you’re pretending- you know the band history. Have you heard BSG vs this cover band? Saw them Minnesota 2 yrs ago It was a free concert & should have been. Not a good purveyor of LRB music
Impostors, you are going to be always a Tribute Band

Not fit to lick Goeble, Shorrock and Birtles boots

Not even a good cover band, stretch out the tunes with mindless solos.
That’s not the little River band
BSG is the little River Band
Wayne’s right- it’s about the music
That music was not written by him or anyone in that current band
The real writers of those beautiful vocal & guitar harmonies are Birtles, Shorrock & Goeble
Fakes
🥱 Did I miss anything, I've just woken up in the second row?

Saw them Minnesota 2 yrs ago
It was a free concert & should have been. Not a good purveyor of LRB music
