[@predaytor]

OMG!

[@moonstriders]

Excellent stuff. Evil Town is my personal favourite. Checkout Hamish's ride beats at Electric Ballroom gig. #spaceship1969YT Never seen a drummer play with such precision and get that sound from a Ride cymbal.

[@spaceship1969]

Evil Town! One of my favorites when I was 15. Link to the show you mentioned kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5eceXqin56sb9k

[@VizkoJoga]

I love evil town too

[@matthewdavis8811]

Hamish must've been beside himself coming on this show.

[@theindieminers]

Haha ... It was a really good chat! He's a good bloke

[@lukeingham7252]

Great interview

[@victorpawelleck4367]

What a great interview! Love It! Did Hamish give any hints off-camera when this new record will be released?

[@tonyhall3365]

is Hamish finished with Wolfmother permanently?

[@spaceship1969]

He said in a podcast ("What a Great Punk" by These New South Whales) last year that he had left Wolfmother at the end of 2022.

[@laneylazarus207]

Has Craig been kidnapped?

[@BigRedxx94]

No, he’s very anti-technology and he’s a bit of a hermit these days. Guy doesn’t have social media or even own a phone.
