Michele to the rescue! So much great stuff there, very cool. I think the Divinyls one of the most underrated Australian bands in that they should have been huge. I did post them Michele but I wasn't game to post "I touch myself"...glad you did. I always thought it would make just a fantastic wedding waltz.

OK little bit of trivia with this one. If you care to watch, you may think that the singer bears quite a resemblance to a world famous guitarist. And you would be right.

Guys I went to see Diesel at the Governor Hindmarsh in Adelaide on Friday night. Right in the front row and he put on such a great show. He plays with great energy and gives his all, great guitarist. The clip I'm posting is not from Friday but it's to give those you don't know him a feel. The guitar he is playing is a Diesel Maton Mini, an awesome, solid blackwood and spruce guitar made for him and now a production line offering. (yes I have one). In my humble opinion this guy never achieved the fame his talent deserved, but I guess he's not alone there. Please take a look.

That's a nice little guitar, must be handy for practicing. I like the stained finish. I think that my next but one guitar may have a sunburst finish.....it's definitely growing on me.

Michele, that John Butler is definitely amazing and quite innovative: slide and wawa on a 12 strings? That is a very good song, Thanks for introducing him. I will check him out

Karma for you

Hey Tovo not sure which guitarist you refer to, but I think the singer looks like Tim " the tool man" Taylor.

mmm I'm not seeing the resemblance Marc. I doubt he would be thrilled to hear that! I take that to mean you didn't like it?

Really liked this. Hadn't heard him before - though i did read an article on him in a mag here in the UK a few months back.

For the techies out there who consider such things interesting - he plays his 12 string as a 11 string, removing the high G because he doesn't like the highest string on the guitar ringing with the mids.......kind of the opposite of Roger McGuinn.

Apparently he used to make $300 a day as a busker - $300 an hour at Christmas! But you can see why.

Tovo, I like him , I just thought he looks like Tim Allen with no judgement on his performance.
