Spot the famous bass player!
Hey guys - can you pick the most famous bass player! Kath & I saw Midnight Oil play at manly Leagues, a warm-up gig for their stellar Wave Aid performance on 29th January 2005. We had a bit of a chat with the guys backstage afterwards. They were all very excited about playing Wave Aid. Obviouslt Kath and I chatted with Bones about how hard it is to actually play bass - harder than it looks! ;)

The highlights from the show were Lucky Country, Brave Faces and Blue Sky Mine. It was geat to catch up with old mates John, Ribman, Luke, Jo, Andrew, Nathan, Deslea, funny bald guy, crazy french Miron, Seweryn with beard, Justin, Terry and all you other guys.
Oh, I almost forgot, another highligh was getting to east some of the crew's Thai food (that way I could avoid scary RSL type food from downstairs)

Sweet log Miss Krustification.
"Funny bald guy" was possibly my erratic band-junky friend also from brissie - Dave "Spy V Spy is my life" Floyd.
It was just fat being there absorbing all that Oil over the years, from 10-1 to their signoff. The only thing that could be better is doing it all again.
I'll have to just sing and play their tunes myself to keep the midnight oil burning in my own little corner of the world ... for a grand audience of 3.
Thanks for your kindness KF, not the least of which was an otherwise impossible introduction to the band, which will remain a 16 minutes moment for me.
