Ian Moss played for the Aussie troops in East Timor 13 or 14 years ago, just him by himself. Some young ones only knew him as the "guitarist from Cold Chisel" but after his show that night he got plenty of new fans of his own. Great experience.

Many Australian bands have been great, even tour in U.S.A but seem to be ignored, I've shown several people in U.S Australian songs and they loved them. Cold Chisel John Farnham Australian Crawl Crowded House Screaming Jets Grinspoon There was earlier Johnny O'Keefe Sherbet and Skyhooks Off the top of my head, and probably about a dozen more rock bands of such quality...we have our own metal and rap ect.. But going by 70s/80s Aussie Radio or Pub classics there's a few to start you there.. Obviously don't need to add AC/DC or Bee Gees...they made it

@@campinatorxbox1610 Your so welcome mate. It's sad to me that other countries missed all this stuff...esp that 70s-90s era. We get most of U.S and other worldwide hits, but I can't imagine my childhood without the hundreds of bits these bands have had. It's a priviledge to share. I remembered a few afterwards that fit the same categories.. Midnight oil Johnny Diesel...just known as 'diesel' the angels men at Work Rose Tattoo Hoodoo gurus Australian Crawl (couldn't remember if I already did that one). To go with 90s/00s alternative rock era 'grinspoon' there's also Regurgitator Spiderbait Eskimo Joe The living end (pop punk). Jebediah You am I Killing Heidi Magic Dirt 60s (again). Masters apprentices Kylie Minogue (pop) Seekers (60s..kinda folk,melody). Lead singer of Seekers and Olivia Newton John we just lost in last few months, died...both women are Australian legends. Judith Durham of seekers, not my thing, but was widely known as a big voiced singer. 00s metal Sunk Loto Bullet for My Valentine ??? ?? Truth is there is plenty more,but I haven't heard in so many years I've forgotten. I've actually heard several decent Aussie metal bands but that's only one I can remember. I don't listen to rap,but know hill top hoods used to be popular.. There's actually alot of popular Aussie rappers these days. I think I already said, but J.O.K (Johnny O'Keefe) was as far as I can see our first big, quality artist in 50s/60s, died really young...I'm born in 81 and just love it still. Definately reccomend. I mostly only put bands that seen decent amount of success, exept maybe magic dirt (grunge)...
