I'd love to go - I was in Australia when the album came out and saw them live on two occasions: the Venue, Dee Why, the Enmore Theatre. But it's a long and expensive trip from Blighty for a gig! |

I wish Robert would participate in these things. |

Maybe one day he will, even just for curiosity sake. But that would require getting someone to fill in for Grant. Maybe Steve Kilbey could do it. Or a mix of different singers, which is what that Brisbane show is using, and also did a few years ago when I saw the show in Sydney. |

It would mend some wounds I think. For Grant's part I'd choose one of the many young Aussies whose music reflects the love of the Go-Betweens' music. One very good possibility would be Ben Chamie of Restless Leg. His debt to the Go-Betweens is worn with pride. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDohqeOI cZY&list=OLAK5uy_k_6Q3Nha271qrj2x0pZEmwJ y_nkaTfTKc&index=8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-4MHnQ7 rjA&list=OLAK5uy_n1Q7H4gBTX9u0LhJfAdp2uu TasiWb96hQ&index=5 |
