[2012-05-01 04:26:15] nzoz1979 - with one synth ...with one synth player? hardly. this is just a new wave band made up of ageing pub rockers from new zealand. kraftwerk and their ilk touched upon techno more than these guys.

[2012-04-25 05:59:26] gym5kids - check out what they ...check out what they are viewing....the computers...back then......OMG havn't we come a long way, but the message remains.......how many people do you know who are hooked on computer games!!??

[2012-04-19 14:57:32] sbottig001 - So was Dragon, ...So was Dragon, Split Enz, Jenny Morris, Jon Stevens and and a few other's, people thought were Aussie bands but weren't. The market in OZ allowed kiwis to earn a better living if successfull and prepared them to crack the US and UK markets with Crowded House having top 10 success. Overall between OZ and NZ, OZ produced a shit load more and were far more successfull in both US and UK with bands like INXS, Men at Work, Sherbet, AC/DC, in 60's Bee Gees, Olivia Newton John, Peter Alen, Easy Beats
