Fact. The song had been on the radio for a while, and fans had bough the album, and us Aussies being what we are, created this audience addition. First live performance of the song, the Angels knew nothing about this, and initially thought the audience thought they crap, and wanted them off the stage. By the end of the song, they realised that nope, the audience LOVE the song, and we just like to add inappropriate but perfectly placed stuff in to favourite songs. We also added to “Living Next Door To Alice”, and created a line dance to “Nutbush City Limits.” It is 100% required to retain your True Blue Aussie card to sing the additions, and do the dance at any opportunity.

The Angels formed in 1976 and the singer "Doc Neeson" died in 2014 at the age of 67. He was the main song writer along with lead guitarist Rick Brewster and his brother John Brewster. They had originally formed in 1970 as an acoustic blues band calling themselves The Moonshine Jug and String Band. In 74 they changed their name to the "Keystone Angels" and in 76 on advice from Harry Vanda and George Young (The Easybeats, and later of Flash in the Pan) shortened their name to The Angels. George Young, one of the greatest musical artists and Producer's in Australian history was the older brother of Angus and Malcom Young of AC/DC.

'Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again' (1976) is an adaption of Status Quo's 'Lonely Night'. Members of both bands being friends. The song, although a crowd pleaser, is not typical of The Angels. I'd highly recommend hearing more of their music. The call and response, crowd interaction is always popular.... When Smokie first toured Australia they were surprised to find Aussie fans had added a question to the song 'Living Next Door to Alice' (Originally by Aussie band New World) (Alice! Alice?

After British band Status Quo discovered numerous similarities between the song and one of their own ("Lonely Night"), the two bands reached an agreement in lieu of a lawsuit that saw Status Quo receive royalties from "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again".[11] Status Quo bassist Alan Lancaster was friends with members of the Angels at the time of the incident, and lived next door to John Brewster. In 2015, Brewster recounted having asked Neeson whether the song could've been based on "Lonely Night" and recalls a non-committal response: "I might have heard it at a disco".

It is a dark song. Someone started yelling 'No Way, Get F**ked, F**k Off' after Doc asks 'Am I ever going to see your face again'. And it is the worst thing that ever happened to the song. Several times I have stood in the crowd shaking my head as people around me screamed out the profanities. Doc would look at me and sing towards me because I understood what the song was about even in the days before the internet and before I could afford to buy music magazines. For some reason I just understood it from the beginning when I heard the original slow version. Anyway, for those wondering why it is a sad song, here is a couple of lines from Wiki. Neeson said that the song was originally written as an acoustic ballad about grief and loss. The girlfriend of Neeson's friend was killed in a motorcycle collision, and the two friends were discussing life after death. The conversation inspired Neeson to write the lyrics.

One of the best aussie bands ever I saw them at thebby theater in adelaide south australia back in 86 I reckon and still have a piece of the stage decoration doc threw out into the crowd. Still crank up their tunes everyday.

Look at that older guy in the crowd halfway through the video with the moe and beard and glasses turned around looking at the crowd shouting "NO WAY GET FUCK OFF" He does look impressed 😂

The song was actually written as a tribute to a friend who died. The opening guitar riff is mimicing an ambulance siren. A slowed downed acoustic version is just as good. RIP Dic Neeson, you were one of the best!!!

This song was actually ripped off from a Status Quo B side " Lonely Night "

I first saw the Angels in about 1978 at Cabramatta(?) Them and the oils were the best pub bands to see back in the day.

Saw the Angels in venues right across Sydney many, many times. The pub shows were the best.

Saw the angels twice at the Charles Hotel in Perth , it was awesome !
@carolinelane95998 ай бұрын
Wasn't there some great pub bands that went through The Charles Hotel. I was so excited to find The Charles when I moved to Perth from Brissy. Loved going to watch pub bands like Cold Chisel, INXS, Jo Jo Zepp and Falcons. Even Frankie J Holden. These days I love Foo Fighters as do my neighbours lol I just love music. Nothing like blaring rock music. My adult son, shit Mum can you turn it down lol

Can't help but crack a grin. Brings back memories from the late 1980's going to see the Angels at the Old Lion in Nth Adelaide a number of times.

Still love this song. It came out when I lived on the streets in Queensland in my teens. If it came on anywhere at all, I didn't care, I always sang the additional crowds response out loud 😂. Aussie cult classic.

He asks the question - "Am I ever gona see your face again?" and the crowd answers him "No way, Get F@cked, F@ck off!"

The bass is, I believe, a Steinberger Bass. This is an anthemic song. Any Aussie from that age who hears the song name knows the proper response. It basically became a reflex action.

As an Aussie I can tell you if this song comes on anywhere in Aus it still gets the crowd reaction of " No way, get f'd , f off.. They had some great albums.

"No way, get fucked, fuck off" that is what they are saying, The Angels were an Aussie Pub band and the crowd started saying this at one of their gigs and it stuck, you won't hear it in the recording though. Unfortunately Doc Neeson the lead singer of The Angels has passed away. Peter Garrett is the bald guy from Oz who fronted Midnight Oil.

4:42 The bald guitarist is Bob Spencer.... originally from a band called Finch. He joined Skyhooks (another legendary band you should check out). Over the past few years he was also in Rose Tattoo (ex-AC/DC Bass player Mark Evans also joined Rose Tattoo to play bass.). Bob is an all-round nice guy and has even released his own music during the down times. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3m4oGyarsuaes0

Another great Angels song featuring Bob Spencer is Dogs are talking kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooS7ipyQqMadnas It's such a shame The Angels (they called themselves Angel City) in the US market never managed to get the US following they really deserved.

These guys played in my high school gym/hall. I had no idea how significant that was at the time, how huge they were. It was Angels + Angry Anderson / Rose Tattoo (I know, right?). Free entry, I mean, we were what, 12? 13? Something like that. Everybody knew the chant, I had never heard it before, but I remember yelling it as loud as I could. It's just so simple and rhythmic. I have no idea how my regional high school in the middle of bumfuck nowhere got these guys to do a show. I'm just grateful to have seen them

G'day folks. As a teenager growing up in Melbourne I saw them at a pub that is sadly no longer here. Sweaty, loud, confronting, and the beers were an absolute steal! I always thought it was, "no way, get stuffed, fuck off."
