Just listening to this song you want to get out on the highway and blow this town. This song is really that exciting. It was my second radio win as I also wrote to the station about this being one of the greatest songs ever. This time they had a go at my English accent! No prizes for migrants.
I bought a Telecaster after seeing those early Bruce filmclips. Actually my girlfriend bought me the Telecaster. I originally got a 12 string electric guitar but the tuning was crap so I took it back and got my Tele. A bit more money but a real guitar. I bought it at Clement's music store in Russell Street.
In the early 80's Bruce came Melbourne. He played at the Showgrounds. It was the first time in Australia and I went there with a few mates. We were all drinking a lot before the show and when Bruce came on the crowd really did go wild. he played for 3 hours with all the people packed on the showgrounds oval. And there wasn't a boring minute. But it was long time and the toilets were far away through a hell a lot of people. My friend had to go. He didn't want to fight his way out and then in. He was desperate. So he went in the middle of the crowd hoping the darkness and the crush of people would cover him.
I couldn't believe it!
A group of guys to our right started to get really angry. So we moved far away.
