My older brother took me to see crime and the city solution in London when I was a kid...probably because I played his copy of The Birthday Party release the bats all the time.....loved Tracy Pews ngarly bass playing

Aw, I love them both. Mick Harvey is still a musical genius and follows many genres of music himself. A Christian minister’s son, a hippy, a punk, a post punk, a composer, an extraordinary Australian artist. Humble, courageous and anything but a loser. I don’t have time to indulge to much in music as I did when a kid. He’s a serious musician, that’s his nature. I’ve seen him live w TBP & JP Shiloh. Phenomenal performance, perfection. His film scores are fabulous too. I’m sure he admires Nick’s huge success, and feels sadness for the loss of his son, he knows all of them and their circle of artists family and friends. He’s compassionate and caring, not just entertaining like Nick. That slows him down perhaps.

I jumped off my tram when I was a tram conductor in Acland Street one day to accost him and shake his hand, tell him what a genius he was...that was some fame right there! lovely fella, held them all together for so long onya Mick!

I think he was shocked someone even recognised him hehe, it was in about 88 on a grey Melbourne day and I was obsessed with the Birthday Party of course...at the time

I would have done the same. And theres not many artists I would do that. He IS coming to Spain now. Got the ticket!!!

Well said Mick, i love the collateral damage line. 🏴

That's why we love and admire you mick!

Great artist. Big fan of his work. He seems a pretty down to earth man, indeed.
