I first heard the Rads rehearsing in a garage in Blacktown...might have been 1977. The original drummer Mick, his parents owned a garage on Richmond Road. I saw the Rads many times in local pubs.
The hardest working band in Australian music history. 1978 - Present Fess left in 2013 after 35 yrs, not a bad stint. Brendan Callinan only lasted 10 yrs, 1978-1988, most bands don't last that long. Mark Lucas on Drums since 1989. Brian and Geoff since 1978, wow that's a staggeriing 42 yrs. Outstanding Aussie band with a wide range of songs and styles. The critics can go and get well and truly fuck*d!!!!!
They worked 2 gigs a day 24/7. [ but. Management was bad. They had them playing chartss towers (nth Queensland Australia ) 5 grand. I was. Doing the P.A. 1990 isH. They were really pissed. ... yeah. & what else can u say , but 'i get around "
Mick C Haha same. We moved to the GC in ‘90. Looking for a place to rent, when we drive by ‘The Playroom’, and giant big billboard with upcoming bands. Rads were on that Saturday night. I said we are renting a place in walking distance to this joint, and we did for four fabulous years. It was like Rooty Hill RSL on the water. Fuck I miss those days.
I had my Radiators cassette stolen by an older mate that brought his nephew into the pub as I showing what tapes I had. I walked away to serve other customers to come back and find it missing. I was so pis... annoyed, they never came back in again. Questioning led nowhere, only anger. I bought the CD afterwards, but that was the first time someone blatantly stole from me. I loved that tape, and my faith in other people/friends died a little on that day.
I was at this gig too and a regular in the Chubb Lounge - dangerous nights those ones. After getting smashed while rockin to The Rads on this particular night a group of us then drove home to Letho in my old Morris Minor. There was about ten of us crammed in and fighting with each other all the way back and we got pulled over by the cops after running down the school fence because a female passenger was trying to belt me up while I as driving. We were so pissed and they still let me get back in the car and drive it home, although the others had to walk. Rock On! I was sure I saw The Rads play at the Concert of the Decade on the steps of the Sydney Opera House in 79 but can't seem to find any evidence to support this. Can anybody else recall if they were there? Stevie Wright was there. Vale Stevie Wright.
When I was 16, a Queensland high school called KEDRON stopped a friend of mine wearing a GIMME HEAD T-Shirt to sports. I did not go to school, so I hobbytexted the same shirt design so I had it perfect - on White instead of Black. Stafford Skating 1980's.
I want to see footage of the Rads at the Homestead Hotel, Zilllmere, QLD, BRISBANE, PLEASE, PLEASE,PLEASE........... /MARGARET, mwaaa, xoxoxo (1984 ish) please, I beg you. I was there and homey you loved me and I loved you music, bring it on,mwaa... :)

It was on a rare album release, A Friend gave me the CD and stupidly sold it on. Long story short I grew up in place called Cypress terrace in Palm beach on the Goldcoast ,Queensland, Australia. WHEN I WAS YOUNG I BMXED Over and PAST THIS CORNER ST HOUSE THE EDGE OF CYPRESS TERRACE WHICH WAS TOTALLY PUMPING.I mean BASS , THIS House was a monster ! Swere the radiators where rehearsing the track Shining path. This very day i footpathed along on my BMX. Please share, it will bring this band into a different light.
I use to sell fake raffle tickets outside the club if there were no more coins left in the fountain. I must fess. Had to raise money to go play the pinnies and get 80cent worth of chips. . Pack of Winnie Reds and extra vinigar fanks luv.
+Sheree Honeyflower Yeah maybe in the late 70's & 80's he could reach those high notes but not now..............to be fair though he does look pissed or high in this video so that could account for it.
Suva harbour will never see a better dog paddler and the Korean fisherman never more welcoming so much so they left a few behind to learn Fijian just for youuuuuuuuiii.....go for it in arabic
Yes it's just like the verve bitter sweet stoopid hair wiry pommy tough guy wif attitude..yeah...but not fake as fuk..yeah..a very rich culture that we try to preserve..but fukkin unlike the verve..still .

The hardest working band in Australian music history.

Mark Lucas on Drums since 1989.
Brian and Geoff since 1978, wow that's a staggeriing 42 yrs.
Outstanding Aussie band with a wide range of songs and styles.
The critics can go and get well and truly fuck*d!!!!!
Yeah, but it's about fucking time for a new album.
👍🍺
They worked 2 gigs a day 24/7. [ but. Management was bad. They had them playing chartss towers (nth Queensland Australia ) 5 grand. I was. Doing the P.A. 1990 isH. They were really pissed. ... yeah. & what else can u say , but 'i get around "
Bad management . Yes. Really. Cause. I know
The Blacktown boys done good !
Saw these guys everywhere from Rooty Hill to The Playroom back in the day and they never disappointed.
Mick C Haha same. We moved to the GC in ‘90. Looking for a place to rent, when we drive by ‘The Playroom’, and giant big billboard with upcoming bands. Rads were on that Saturday night.

Wow, didn't know they appeared at the Court House, saw them at the Refec in about 83 and the Powerhouse in 84, great nights.
Love these stories from times long gone 😊
Great memories from times long gone
Go the Rads, one of the best Aussie pub bands Eva!
Cool tune - Love that bass intro, audience loving it
I had my Radiators cassette stolen by an older mate that brought his nephew into the pub as I showing what tapes I had. I walked away to serve other customers to come back and find it missing. I was so pis... annoyed, they never came back in again. Questioning led nowhere, only anger.
I bought the CD afterwards, but that was the first time someone blatantly stole from me.
I loved that tape, and my faith in other people/friends died a little on that day.
I lost a bunch of really precious tapes when me and a partner split .
Why oh Why did I leave those there 😩
Wish I could hear them again
5 bands, $5...Rads ALWAYS were a highlight.
I lived the BEST of days...
These guys are awesome live will never forget them
Accidentally went to 3 different gigs in a row in the 80s. They stalked me.
Kings of the Aussie pub bands! Legends!
no way man they dont beat the angels or maybe the angels were bigger than just a pub band.

Geef me hoofd schat
Gimme head baby
Geef me hoofd zoals je gisteravond deed
Gimme head like you did just last night
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Je laat me op honderd graden stomen
You got me steamin' at a hundred degrees
Elke keer als ik je zie, word ik zwak in de knieën
Each time I see you I grow weak in the knees
Je zinkt me onder, breng me ongedaan
You sink me under, bring me undone
Met woorden die je zei, woorden die je zei
With words you said, words you said
Maar het beste van alles, al degenen die je me hoofd geeft
But best of all, all those you gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Je geeft krassen over de hele lengte van mijn rug
You gimme scratch marks down the length of my back
Je geeft me tandafdrukken in de zijkant van mijn nek
You gimme teeth marks in the side of my neck
Je fluistert lieve dingen, geeft me pak slaag
You whisper sweet things, gimme beatings
Je vernielt mijn bed (verwoest mijn bed)
You wreck my bed (wreck my bed)
Maar het beste van alles, ik hou van, jij geeft me hoofd
But best of all, I love, you gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Dus
So
Ah, zeg dat je me nooit zult verlaten
Ah say you'll never leave me
En beloof me dat je blijft
And promise me you'll stay
Want nu ik in de hemel ben, glijd niet weg, au!
'Cause now that I'm in heaven don't slip away, ow!
ik vind het leuk
I like it
Je laat me stomen op honderd graden (honderd)
You got me steamin' at a hundred degrees (one hundred)
Elke keer als ik je zie, word ik zwak in de knieën
Each time I see you I grow weak in the knees
Je fluistert lieve dingen, geeft me pak slaag
You whisper sweet things, gimme beatings
Je vernielt mijn bed (verwoest mijn bed)
You wreck my bed (wreck my bed)
Maar het beste van alles, ik hou van, jij geeft me hoofd
But best of all, I love, you gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head
Jij geeft me hoofd
You gimme head

he looks a bit like frank spencer here
Forget what yaka
💎🧩🙏🌟🦋🪷🎼🌈🛸
This band is good; however, the name of their band (Radiators) is from a great band in the US. The thing is.... no one really cares.
Both bands formed the same year in the time before internet. Don’t be a typically arrogant yank.
The musicians are great but the singer........doesn't quite cut it.
+Sheree Honeyflower Yeah maybe in the late 70's & 80's he could reach those high notes but not now..............to be fair though he does look pissed or high in this video so that could account for it.
then you just don't get it. The singer seems fine. Maybe you jut can't break yourself out of that elitist American perfectionist brigade.
