Midnight Oil

[GreGorGy]

Seriously, why is nobody talking about this? Garret has been tied up as a cabinet minister in Oz for years and now, four years since he held office, the band is back and touring - they're playing Emmerentia on 29 july R500 a ticket.

Did Lucky Dube play at the DBN concert too? There were a bunch of bands at the JHB concert.

Because
1. The Biebs is more popular amongst current youth
2. Because this band was controversial and kind of associated with the dying days of apartheid

...unlike Steely Dan, who are eternally relevant and a great listen any old year.

I'll be honest, I never heard of them before. So I just went on to Google Play and listened to Beds are Burning and I know that song gets played a lot on the regional radio. So I know that song but never the artists
