One of my first gigs in a pub was I think 1980, 17 years old at The Fairfield Pub standing down the front on the same floor as Iva Davies.
I seen Icehouse recently at Evans theatre in the riff.. they are still great.. they are actually playing there again soon.. I thoroughly recommend it..

One of my early first gigs too, albeit a little later - Man of Colours era at the State Sports Centre at Homebush - long before anything was built for the Olympics. I met Iva several times in later years with a music charity we were both involved in - really nice guy. Classical music was his true love, the pop stuff was much more about making a living, which still pays pretty well today.

Year i had my first holiday job making donuts and kababs
Never gets old.
I met Mark Gable a few times through a music charity we were both involved in. Really nice guy. This song was about life on Sydney’s Northern Beaches in the 80’s and still pays some pretty decent royalty cheques more than 30 years later.
