Shame these guys ain't on Spotify so I could check them out easier, all I've got is some old promo vinyl's from mum back when she worked at Festival Records in Melbourne in the 80s. My mum used to be good friends with these blokes, they were mental when all together but individually all of them were pretty sweet guys apparently.
Oh yup i was a junkie then but worked kpt a flat uo from the House on Ackland(?)st..where fred N.plus others lived.st kilda in them times.."A 1/2 Weight=$110.roughly 4+hits Vs.A w hit $50.cap..no brainer..met those guys ISOYG.recall the movie poster on wall there "I Spit On Your Grave'..gave them boxes of Wine frim my Job @'Vic.Railways..Was a perk mustve been 20 boxs of 'Oven Valley Shiraz'..etc..great times.Always recall them..olus great to see a recent comment of Fred n The Band..still goin..Also They were crazy together but regular people usually @'the house.Fred was A great Graphic Artist Some of the Handbills i saw very funny.×The Gig/s..!😅
I was there aged 16 at the Nard hotel St Kilda. I got my mum to act as my girlfriend ahe punked right up and bought me beer. Id been into the punk scene/ music for about 2 years leading upto this. Pedition was the other band. I remember going for a piss and seeing junkies lying in the cubicles out of it. That was my first live punk bank experience and ill never forget it. I got into the crowd and did the pogo and smashing into them all, It was the best night. What a great crowd of people to be with no fights or bullshit just all having fun. I gotta say my mum looked hot as a punk im supprised no one even tried to hit on her at the table whilst i was out on the floor. Really shows how respectfull they are dispite the stigma attached to such groups. They was all really cool even the messed out junkies in the cubicles just doing their own thing. It didn't effect me just mind ya business and have fun.
I was at this Gig- and many more of them. The days of Slammin. The POW and The Espy were our loungerooms 🤣🤣🤣Vodkas Alright Graffix :) If you know, you know.
@@spiderfernandez Pretty sure its the POW- although I saw them in a few diff venues. Even caught them in Sydney once. They are old friends of mine- They were at my wedding :) We always kept away from Fred on stage cos he was always throwing stuff hahaha. I still sing this song in my head occasionally.
@Misinfotainment Naaah, not Borgy. Though that was a tragic loss. This is even sadder. I'm not going to go into it. Like I mentioned- if you know, you know. RIP.

Saw them again last Friday at a gig in Melbourne no Scotty stix but Fred Negro and Jason on lead was awesome.
I spoke with Scotty just before- my mate said she bumped into him- I assumed it was the Gig. I will ask him.

Epic Australiannn puNk. Hary hart fruit loop. I don't even know if there's any punk bands playing at pubs these days. $8 for an awesome night.
StKilda was a 'colourful' place in the 80's.
