I was privileged enough to be at this gig, side of stage. A good friend works at the J's, he recorded this. At the time I was 46, and I'm a trucker. Got to hang in the broadcast truck before driving it back to ABC at Ultimo. I have to say that performance blew me away.

[@gasser5001]

I love how Briggs and Trials pop outta nowhere at the end for the final hurrah. Aussie hip-hop is honestly where I find most of my music. It's been a good 15 years. They kept the oldschool 80s/90s hip-hop going once the US scene died down.
