One of the absolute great Sydney (Aust) bands of the 80's RIP Damien

I'll never forget going to Sandy's Records in Dee Why in 1982 to buy the latest indie records that I'd heard on Radio JJJ FM. I said hello to Nigel and Jenny, then went to the 7" vinyl section and flicked through the records when I came across a copy of "But Jacques, the Fish?" I grabbed it with the excitement of youth. Nigel gave me his usual 'background' story about the artist I was purchasing. At the time I didn't know I was buying an important piece of history. One of my treasured vinyl Singles is "Sometimes" "Sometimes when I get home I just wanna go out again" One of my favourite gigs was at Bryant's Manly Vale in 1983 where I saw The Scientists and The Celibate Rifles. I always got a laugh when Couvret wore his Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles footy jumper on stage. Another great memory is seeing The Rifles at The Strawberry Hills Hotel, SurryHills back in the hazy 80's when Damo told the crowd they were going to attempt a new song. Damo then proceeded to read the lyrics from a sheet of paper. Damo asked the people in the crowd "how do you like it up the back?" "There's a lot of people in Sydney that like it up the back!!" We loved Damo for many reasons and his dry humour and high level of applied intelligence were just two of them. Oh and he wasn't a bad frontman for a great Rock Band either. Remembered forever, the great Damien Lovelock.

[@dallashayes4421]

True Mate? Is it him?

[@N0R3M4C]

surely not?

[@timbucktoonotforyou.8442]

Doubtful. He's more a gay mardi gra type guy.

[@Robbo766]

@@timbucktoonotforyou.8442 No, he wasn't. He was seeing Celibate Rifles, The Saints, Radio Birdman and stuff like that in the 80's. It was one of his selling points when he was looking for public approval.
