Seeing Garret struggling with the upper register stuff Barnes came out to help. It was nice to see. This was done shortly before Marc Hunter died to help raise funds for his cancer fight. RIP Marc.
@Hawkman1116 Here what really happened. Garret found this song was a little high for him, but was committed to do the song as it was a tribute concert. Barnesy came out half way through the song to help out as he could see Peter was struggling. Have a look at his face when Barnes comes out. A look of pure relief. Props to both of them for their professionalism.
Mason yep Garret certainly smashed the song. Nearly obliterated it, jimmy saved his skin, just, a lot of damage had already been done for him to mop up
I remember watching this live and thinking it was a powerful performance. Sure, it stretched him in the upper register, but it added to the emotion - you gotta admit this is straight from the heart.
Was this Midnight Oil or just Garrett and Hirst? That is Mark McEntee on geetar, from Divinyls and Rick Grossman on bass, from Hoodoo Gurus, Persian Carpets and Ghostwriters.
Thanx muchly for posting this, I was at this concert at Coogee Bay Hotel, it was awesome, sad that Marc passed away not too long after. Have you got any more, plz post.
pretty typical of garret it seems these days , maybe he payed of the mixer , as barnsey may as well of sang without a mic has showed him up no doubt, pull the finger out peter!
