[@catharineorellana3522]

Such a great band. How I miss those days. RIP Damo.

[@dalakerdaniel9240]

Yep me too the best years of my life RnR 🍻💊🍻

[@Shallhallan]

Get over yourself! No one will ever do it better than Patti but the Rifles rule and I think they did a dam good job of covering an awesome song. Damien is the king.

[@Scotty-P]

Of course they're 80's brilliant, but it's amazing how '90's' The Celibate Rifles are!

[@meggarippleeffect8098]

RIP Damo. Best OZ rock band EVER!

Hi st65ar. This was a program called Blah Blah Blah hosted by Andrew Denton. For me this performance was life altering, being a headbanger I hated 80's popular music & thought metal was all there was. This turned me onto alternative & was the precursor to grunge. I saw some great music live, all because of this performance.

[@Scotty-P]

No. No. "Grunge" was made up to copy 80's 'Alternative'.

[@dalakerdaniel9240]

​@@Scotty-P I agree Scotty for me old punk 62 Grunge was a nightmare 'music the world don't need' the rifles are a proper band like many more from Australia The Saints (live at the Roxy Club 77 give it a try) Radio Birdman and fav Cosmic Psychos booked them early 90s and we spent the night at Red Light District in Amsterdam don't remember much of anything 🍻💊🍻

[@johnno1711]

Can remember watching broadcat uni days...some abc show...this band will always have a place

[@BigJulieWasDead]

Saw them tonight...man...26 years later !

[@1Devilwolf]

Such killer guitar work!! Whew!

[@MegaRockgirl7]

The Celibate Rifles Rock!!

[@martinhim5585]

I saw them in Denmark at the Roskilde festival and they blew my mind. What a band and they finished the set with a sex pistol cover if I remember correctly. Fuck life was great back then!

[@dalakerdaniel9240]

What year was it? CR are one of the best Aussie Bands ever got Cosmic Psychos tattooed on my calf and spent one night with them at the red light district in Amsterdam end 80s and still suffering that I never saw The Saints and Radio Birdman live - been to 3000 gigs or more but never made it til now me 61 🍻💊🍻

[@mickeymousebiker1]

This is king tone. This is a great cover of Patti Smith's tune. Oz has the right clicks, baby. Dig The Urges ("I Gotta Wait").

[@paolamelissareyesramos8891]

siempre con mi buena musica !!!

[@MegaRockgirl7]

You're right, Mickey! I like that song by The Urges, "I Gotta Wait"! It's kicking! Love that psychedelic sound, going on with them! Has that 60's flavor going on! Nice!

[@janisnan]

fantastic!

[@MegaRockgirl7]

YEAH!! I AGREE! I LOVE IT!! "AUSSIES ROCK"!!!

[@mickeymousebiker1]

Kind of like an Oz amalgam of The Plimsouls and The Urges. This is bruisin'!

[@doctornick03]

Nice! Never seen this footage before.

[@MegaRockgirl7]

Hi bma109! Thanks for telling me this, because I am a big fan of the Goo Goo Dolls, also! I'm going to check their version of "Million Miles Away" out. Keep Rocking! :-)

[@RAMLIA1]

Love it!

[@vaspers]

congratulations. today this video was selected by the NYC Punk Rock Evolution Foundation. good job.

[@KidsPlanetTV]

Nice video!

[@MegaRockgirl7]

Yeah! I really like The Plimsouls! They're rocking that song, "A Million Miles Away"! Has any other artist done that song? Seems like I've heard it done before, by another group. Just wondering.

[@st65ar]

What show was this played on in 98? Recovery? A nice 60's surf/ psycha' take on that 70's moody classic by Patti.

[@Bietel]

@Larsbolander Point is that you need a huge garage if you want to let in everyone who wants to come and enjoy what you're doing there. Suppose that's how clubs started :-)

[@punkisuprimo]

que buena

[@bma109]

"Million Miles Away" was covered by New York power pop band the Goo Goo Dolls.

[@rohanambrosius131]

how start out red hot, and go to blinding white

[@written12]

I wouldn’t say that, but I think it’s just as good. They definitely approach it differently. This psych- garagey container works nice,y

[@kprecoda]

dio buono.

[@kerrykelaher2607]

20 year " train wreck !"

[@manuelkatsos5104]

Better than the original ABSOLUTE RIPSNORTER

[@dalakerdaniel9240]

[@MrAnarchris]

[@markcook-long1365]

[@katinasvenska]
