For the past three weeks, Clairsy & Lisa revisited the Perth pub scene of the late 1970s and ’80s.
The days where you’d scan the Daily News and catch a gig every night of the week at places like The Shents, The Overflow, the OBH, The Wizbah, The Underground, The Charles, The Raffles, and The Nookenburra (famous for its Nookenbusters shows).
We spoke to the local legends of the time:
- Alan Simpson (V-Capri)
- Mark Donohue (The Frames)
- Michael Parks (Perfect Strangers)
- Neil Randall (former owner of the Shenton Park Hotel)
- Dave Crosby (Ice Tiger)
- Dom Mariani (The Stems)
- Gary Dunn (The Night After & Hooker)
- Jody Bell (The Jam Tarts)
- Grace Knight (Eurogliders)
- Dave Warner (Dave Warner’s From The Suburbs)
- Jamie Mercanti (Slim Jim & The Fatts)
- Dave Eamus & Dick Haynes (Loaded Dice) (Dick Haynes left Loaded Dice to form Dick & The Dames)
- Tim Farriss (The Farris Brothers which evolved into INXS)
- Mark Lizotte, aka Diesel (Innocent Bystanders then Johnny Diesel & the Injectors)
If you missed a couple of chats, or want to relive the whole series, they’re now all in one place, on one podcast.
