Commentpart of the Intimate and Interactive series of shows the Oils did in Australia. Peoples names were drawn and they got to come sit on a couch on stage with the band and some song requests were taken, this usually meant that the show spawned some rare songs and this one is no exception.

3 Red Sails songs were played is the biggest highlight for myself. Many rarities -
Minutes to Midnight, Helps Me Helps You, Land, and Burnie rarely get played with 'Burnie' and 'Helps Me' being extremely rare. Tin Legs made a resurfacing as they did more acoustic sets in shows in later years but had been on a virtual 10 year hiatus from setlists. Add the unique song arrangements used with guests Chris Abrahams and Charlie McMahon and you have a rare Oils show.

CommentHere's someting that's REALLY Different. It's INXS with their (then) new replacement singer Jon Stevens.

Anyone who lives in Australia knows how Jon Stevens became lead singer for INXS after the demise of Michael Hutchence.

Jon, originally from New Zealand, started his singing career as a solo singer , then member of another great aussie band , called Noiseworks, and also played Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar.

Jon was invited to sing in the band temporarily in 99, but was offered a permanent position and toured in Australia in 2000.
