I was at lakes high school in Rotorua when the girls signed a petition for push push to come and play at the school. we won... or lost, depending on who you talk to... it was still fun to go to tho lol
Mikey Havoc, singer, was my record dealer in the late 80s in Auckland City, New Zealand. Bought so many awesome metal vinyls and cassettes back then. Best little underground music store.
In an era I was rocking out to Ugly Kid Joe, Guns and Roses, Metallica, AC/DC, Mortification et al this band was played Saturday mornings for about 6 weeks on Australian RAGE. I really liked it but never caught the bands name or heard the song again. October 2021 I finally found it again. It is exactly as bad as I remembered it and I love it.
One of my fav songs and the hair was so jealous of them boys having better hair then me lol blastards lol awesome band loved the song... cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers
FUK what a classic song. loved these guys back in the day. NZ band that kicked ass. lead singer used to work in a record shop before he joined the band. ahhh the memories.
I saw these guys live at the Wingatui Race Course (Mosgiel, Dunedin) back in the early 90's and they were awesome!! Had that real G'n'R vibe going on, Agree totally with acidspoodie's call about Slash doing a cover of this!
Go Girls reignited my passion for an already great song and i'm no bogan but this was the 90's for me, i mean it was no 1 forever!!!!! ViVa!!!! makes me proud
I was living in Auckland then when this song came out,still remember it. I've been in England over 25 years now. Anyway check out my latest youtube creation if ya want ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fQi4XHvIaoI.html
I think the singer might nearly have been involved in a fatal car accident in Adelaide in 1992. The rumours flying around were the singer requested to get of the car, sensing things were not right, which happened. The car would crash shortly after. It's a rumour, but it's one that's intrigued me as the guy who passed from the tragedy was a neighbour years before.
Yeah but for NZ in the early 90's it was just SO FUCKING COOL to hear a local band playin' as hard out as overseas, with vocals that wail a few octaves like Havoc's. I was living in Queenstown at the time & was full of pride for the 'fellow Aucklanders' who were ripping up the chartz.....aLl GoOd BrOtHeR...Liana
oh hell yeah, fucken trippin out on this track every day...fucken trippin out on it now...great guitars/drum work on this track...best band to come out of Kiwi land....fucken love it.......Push Push needed more recognition............yeah, cortese is in da nirvana shirt.....
I remember them playing a party over on the shore that us some westies gate crashed and had a few beers with havoc great guys great song compared to the shit these days
Is it just an urban myth that HMV Queen Street got banned from being a "chart store" (one of the shops that sent in their sales numbers each week to the people that compiled the top 20) because Mikey and work mates falsified the numbers Trippin' sold???
I met andy kane in sydney in 1996....after push push had disbanded cos mikey walked out on them.....he reckoned I was the only person whod recognised him....maybe cos it was oz
