The Southern River Band - Stan Qualen - The Charles Hotel - Oct 2023

[@davidbrown8517]

In my ever so humble opinion The Southern River Band are the best rock band to come out of Australia since AC/DC

[@michellequee9714]

They certainly rock hard and have some great tunes!

[@265TEE]

Wow! Great band, so many influences here ACDC, Lizzy, ZZ Top, even Quo, all skillfully done, need to check out more. Awesome.

[@michellequee9714]

They are awesome! There's more videos from the same night on this channel. I'd see them again in a flash!

[@michael5089]

​​@@michellequee9714Absolutely loving this band I only discovered yesterday through Justin Hawkins on Instagram!! I'm a massive Classic Rock fan and love Classic Quo so what's not to love here? This gives me hope for new rock music along with bands like The Struts. Thank you for uploading ❤🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@ponzo1967]

They got chops and attitude I love this.

[@segomatu7063]

I just discovered this band, that's good Rock 'n' Roll Big Balls ! But to me it sounds much more like English Hard Rock from the 70' than Aussie Hard Rock ! Sounds very much like Thin Lizzy on this song ... Rock on !!

[@janeckert221]

Cheers from Germany! WOW!!!!! What a blast! Fantastic!

[@michellequee9714]

Yeah, pretty awesome!!!

'kin 'ell. Haven't been to the Charles for like 40 years. This mob might just change that!

It was my first experience at the Charles (being an east coaster) but if I see another show as good as this one in Perth again I might have to move there!

🤩Fuck! My blood was already circulating through all the corners of my far from young body, where she had apparently already forgotten the way... The whole hair stood on end, the balls curled up with delight, and the legs under the table mercilessly began to beat the rhythm for themselves, and they are ready to start dancing! IT SHOULD BE LISTENED TO LOUDLY! ALTHOUGH NO, VERY LOUD! Guys! How I would like to be your neighbor in retirement! And listen to your (or rather, our) music like this, and do it EVERY DAY so that the whole neighborhood is finally cleared of rats, cockroaches, fans of rap, hip-hop and other shit! WELL DONE! KEEP IT UP!

[@Lionheartsm]

Great rock n roll moment to enjoy there and people have to get their crappy phones out.

[@michellequee9714]

You might say that but I couldn't possibly comment .... because that's how you watched this video :)

[@monmixer]

This band has a lot of character for sure. I just stumbled across a video last night and watched it thus this showed up on my feed today. I haven't seen anything aside of this song though.

[@michellequee9714]

There's a number of other videos of them on this channel from the same gig. They sure put on a great show! This song is their latest single but they have lots of great tunes :)
