Even the early INXS stuff is truly terrible.Bands with the most hilarious names,yes jimmy barnes I'm talking to you! but this morning I was unfortunate enough to see on Sunrise a snippet of whats in store for the poor b*****ds who have booked tickets for the 'Countdown' reunion tour (some 70's/80's sunday nite music showcase thing) Even my daughter who is 10 stopped in astonishment at how appalling it was, I think even koshie was just being kind to them when he applauded at the end. Did any of you guys see it?

Is JW still having probs with his cancer or is he clear now? I presume this is why he left?
