*To receive PRIORITY Requests for future videos, head on over to our Patreon or Buy Me a Coffee. Never expected, but always appreciated.❤Links in Description!* This was such a banger!! Jimmy Barnes brought me here, but I'm staying for Cold Chisel!
I was working my way around Australia with my mate in 1987 in an old Valiant station wagon, we were driving north from Perth and my mate bought 2 tapes, the first and second Chisel albums. Until then, I 'd thought of them as just another pop band. Man, was I wrong. I've been hooked ever since. So many of their songs define different aspects of Australia, from Bow River to Sweethearts. It wouldn't be Australia without Cold Chisel.
Don't be so surprised...you are listening to one of the greatest songs ever written and recorded by possibly the best band you'll ever have the pleasure to listen to..
Beautifully said, the ONLY reason they didn't rip US apart was , there American manager was a dick and most of the band, wanted to come home, BUT man you missed out!! If you want to blow your mind, breakfast at sweet hearts and when the war is over, you will be in tears awesome 🤘
Barnsey and Mossy’s voices blend so perfectly it’s ridiculous. Ian Moss is a successful solo artist in his own right. Fun fact: my intellectually disabled brother is a huge Mossy fan and has seen him play in our home state ofTasmania, Australia, at least four times. Ian always says hello to him, happily has photos taken with him, and REMEMBERS my brother’s NAME. That’s a man right there.
Was working with the Army in Timor about 15 years ago. Ian moss flew out and did a private show for a couple hundred soldiers. Lasted about 3 hours and he hung around afterwards to take photos with anyone who asked. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen 👌
Ditto , from Christiano in Straya . Grew up listening to Chisel a bunch of other awesome bands . Would not be surprised if I attended my first concert "in utero"...
"I've been working hard/12 hours a day/ and the money I've saved won't buy my youth again". Cold Chisel is poetry for the working man. A lot of Aussie references but a lot of stuff in there that I bet others could relate to as well. And the melodies and delivery were amazing too.
Khe Sanh, Standing on the Outside, Rising Sun, Choir Girl, Star Hotel, Saturday Night, Flame Trees, Houndog, Letter to Allan, Ita, Four Walls, Forever Now, My turn to Cry, My Baby, No good for you, Best kept Lies, Breakfast at Sweethearts, Wild Colonial Boy etc
I think you'll enjoy "if something is wrong with my baby", soul/blues style, Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham & Desiel.. 2 of the best singers alive & killer guitar... but warning... hearing John will send you down another rabbit hole! There's nothing he doesn't sing well!
was going to say something similar, too much fm airplay back in the day and i did not like /barnsies voice - but a few years back i started to appreciate the songs and lyrics, just brilliant.
Every member of Chisel are extremely talented, they all could sing, wrote their own songs. 50 years since i first saw them and they are still on my daily playlist. Jimmy is still my schoolgirl crush ❤. Check out "When the war is over, " from the same concert 🔥
Chisel are the only Australian band (and probably one of the few internationally) where every member of the band wrote a number 1 hit song. Thats some serious talent in one group!
Nice reaction, as an Aussie, Cold Chisel is an institution down under, first saw them in 1978 supporting Peter Frampton. Check out “Keh San” it’s an Aussie anthem.
Every chisel song is a classic - Saturday Night, Forever Now, Khe Sanh, Cheap Wine, You Got Nothing I Want, Four Walls, When The War Is Over, Choir Girl… and so many more - doesn’t matter where you start you will love them all.
Flame trees, Khe Sanh and Cheap Wine are 3 of my favorite songs of all time. Love Ian Moss’ Tucker’s daughter and sooo much of Jimmy but my faves are Working Class Man and Driving Wheels.
I’m an Aussie and got to see them in Melbourne at pubs back in the day. They were excellent!! Jimmy used to drink vodka straight from the bottle on stage. Oh those were the best times!
@@Eskay1206 OK so I just took your suggestion and checked out wild thing by cold chisel. Why in the name of all that is holy did I not hear about the band before? I am a music fanatic and I never heard of these guys. Weird things do happen I guess. What a fantastic band. Thank you for that suggestion. It was a little life-changing for the better.
@@HabsAndHeavyMetalok you have to check out “you’ve got nothing I want” by Cold Chisel they wrote that song after coming back from the US 🇺🇸as the record label gave them the stuff around while they were there. 😂 it’s a banger. You’ll love it I’m sure. That’s probably why a lot of people from the US haven’t heard of Cold Chisel unless they came over here in Australia.
I totally agree, I love the reaction videos, but so often they don't play the recorded versions which are usually the best versions. Once ya hear them you get a good feel for the songs then the live or acoustic versions sound a lot better. Just my opinion.
@@ChrisAnderson42 I get what you say but I think for people who have never heard a band before, the live concert versions convey a lot more about what a band is /was all about. There’s a dynamic in a live show , where some improvisation may occur that really shows the scope and appeal of the band. Just my opinion too. ✌️
Barnsey = Jimmy Barnes singing “Soothe me “with Sam Smith ; and singing “ When something is wrong with my Baby “ with Farnsey = John Farnham. Saw Mossy recently in an acoustic concert …. Fantastic 🎉🎉
Cold chisel are phenomenal, they have not just 1 but 2 amazing lead singers and all their songs are unique and don’t sound the same. Check out “when the war is over” live from this same concert Ringside 2003
Barnsey and Mossy, Chisel. Aussie legends!! Ian's solo work is also very good, and of course you know about Jimmy. His family are also amazingly talented.
Aussie here, 57 years old. Grew up with Cold Chisel in my formative years and have never stopped listening to them. Saw them in many venues, pubs in their early days, too many concerts to name. Whenever I’d take a date out it would be Cold Chisel playing in the car whether she liked it or not! When the War is Over Flame Trees Saturday Night Breakfast at Sweethearts Khe Sahn Cheap Wine All songs you should cover. There’s a relentless thread of lost opportunities, lost love, melancholy, redemption and bitterness in their timeless songs. One of the greatest Aussie bands ever formed. If you ever happen to be in an Aussie Pub when Khe Sahn starts playing be prepared to hug and sing with your fellow man! Peace.
another fun fact for you - both Mossy and Barnesy are real humanitarians. I have spent many years of my life in remote areas.. so to put on a concert you'll be lucky if you sell a thousand tickets.. basically the size of a football pitch. (and smaller depending on the town). Mossy used to regularly visit a place called Tom Price in the north west of WA and Barnsey also - including playing in Karratha. when they do shows this size, you are all basically in the Mosh pit and the band enters the stage walking through the crowd and these guys are just so unpretentious and down to earth. real legends.
This is an epic song that I never tire of listening to,you can’t go past Cold Chisel….it’s one Rabbit hole you’ll want to go down believe me, you won’t regret it…. ❤
Three great singers - Steve Prestwich (RIP) on drums also released a solo album, and he's brilliant. NEXT - For Jimmy Barnes, "Wild Thing" Live in Last Stand Concert (Jimmy at his absolute WILDEST), then a mellow, older Jimmy "Stone Cold" (with Joe Bonamassa), and for Ian Moss, "Georgia" (beautiful).
20+ year old concert of a 40+ year old song. Glad you enjoyed it. Song is about a sheep station (ranch) where Ian Moss’s brother worked in outback Australia.
One of my favourite Cold Chisel songs will always be Letter To Alan. Ian Moss absolutely shreds in this one. It never get radio play (it comes in at almost 6 minutes) and is an underrated gem. It was the last song on the Circus Animals album from 1982.
Just some more news on the chisel front, they are still playing and they are doing their 50 years tour this November here in Australia. I am going and can not wait, this will be my first time seeing them and I am soooo excited. It should be one of the greatest concerts ever. The first concert here in Melbourne sold out in 1 hour, that's about 60,000 tickets!!!! Chisel is still alive and kicking in 2024!!!
@setonhillstudios it is mate, should be absolutely crazy. Poss the biggest show of the summer here, then I double up with the Dropkick Murphys in Nov as well!!!!!!!!
Love One Long Day! Rosaline, also from their debut album should get a mention as I think it’s Mossy’s best vocal performance and Just How Many Times is sublime.
Cold Chisel is one of my FAVOURITE 70's/80's band.....Aussie Legends. They are always best listened to live, simply amazing band. Some great songs are Flame Trees, Breakfast at Sweethearts, When the War is Over, Khe San, Ita, You got Nothing I Want, Saturday Night - the list goes on. Thanks for video, loved watching you enjoy them.
So many possibilities !!! Flame Trees, When the War is Over, Saturday Night, Breakfast at Sweethearts, You Got Nothing I Want, Choir Girl, Forever Now... Pretty much any song, any album, any era will not disappoint. I suggest putting them on a big wheel and spinning it up !
Best. Band. Ever. It's a shame the rest of the world missed out, but hey, at least you can get it now. They did go to the U.S. to tour, way back in the early days, but the producers/execs over there, wanted them to change everything they did basically, to make them more 'America friendly', (I think you all would have liked 'em how they were), so they said "#@!$ *$&#!!!!", came home, and never went back, lol. I love that you loved them, nothing you listen to, will disappoint.✌❤
Yep, they came back from the US and wrote “You Got Nothing I Want” as an up you to the American recording executives. 🙂 Another brilliant song- ruclips.net/video/-BiJKq7ynms/видео.htmlsi=ysxPNlzPQ2_x_EwO
Cold Chisel, from my hometown of Adelaide, South Australia.. Jimmy grew up here (Born in Scotland).. They did their first gigs here.. Dave Blight, the harmonica player, still plays at blues bars around town. Im glad you call it harp, people look at me strange when I do haha... I play with song with my Gen X band, it goes OFF!
Your hooked lol 👍- "Cold Chisel Live 1983 Ian Moss performs Georgia on My Mind" is an absolute must, along with "Cold Chisel - Wild Thing (Last Stand)" 🎤🎸🔥
Ian Moss was the lead singer of the band originally but wanted to step back from that position and asked the band to find another co-lead singer (as Ian also plays fantastic guitar). That's when Jimmy/ 'Barnsey' joined the band. 'Mossy' wrote this song from his own experience . Bow River is up in the tropical North of Australia. In this same concert, unplanned for and at the end of it, Mossy sings the best version of the American classic, 'Georgia' that you will ever hear ! The cameraman was so blown away by it that he made a special video of it !
As an Aussie growing up on Cold Chisel, INXS, Midnight Oil, Rose Tatoo, Angels and ACDC its incredible that Aussie rock is still being discovered ......but Im happy you are here for it........and i almost forgot Silverchair - Frog Stomp album
Yes Cold Chisel were around from the mid 1970s till they disbanded circa 1983. One of my favourite "Chisel" songs come from their earliest era (1978) (?) and is called "One Long Day" (it's on RUclips you could check it out for yourself). I attended their "Last Stand" tour in, if memory serves, 1983 (ish) They have however re-formed from time to time for certain events. This video is from one of these later events.
When I was eighteen I left home and hitchhiked to Darwin , My inspiration was this album , met many great people we got drunk, smoked heaps of shit. FXXK it was epic , now im 58 and still rockin to CC , cheers .
Song is about the now long closed Bow River diamond mine in the Kimberley's of Western Australia. At the southern end of lake Argyle where the Bow and Ord rivers meet.
Back in the mid to late 80s, me and a few friends went to see Ian Moss at the Forester's Arms in Melbourne and it was a great show. Me and my best mate were sitting on the side having a beer after it seemed like the show was over then we heard the first couple of bars of our favourite song at the time, Bow River, so we made our way to the front of the stage was getting into it, when Jimmy came out to join him. it was totally unforgettable, one of my best nights ever.
@@setonhillstudios seriously you won't be disappointed. Cold Chisel doing "Wild Thing" live from the Last Stand tour has got to be one of the best live rock performances ever. 😁
Love seeing new people finding Cold Chisel. Check out Cold Chisel,Hell broke Lucy Official video. Im suggesting the Official video only because it is easier to understand the words of the song the first time.
We were lucky enough to see cold chisel play in the pubs back in the 70s. Ian Moss, legend, and Jimmy with his ferocious voice. One Long Day, epic blues track of theirs. Cheers mate.
G’Day mate, so happy you are loving some of our Aussie legends. Cold Chisel ultimate pub band. I grew up listening to these guys. Jimmy and Ian Moss absolute fire. Cheers Kev
Welcome to Chisel! Check out When The War is Over, live. I'm in Perth, Australia and have tickets to their concert here in October. Will be my 3rd Chisel concert and I've seen Jimmy about 13 times. Legends! 🤟
One of the best live bands I've ever seen. I used to go to pub gigs around Sydney when they played live as "The Barking Spiders" to keep the numbers down because they loved the intimacy of pub shows.
Welcome to the legend…as a child born down under in the seventies I had the privilege of growing up listening to these guys. When the War is Over is one of my top all time songs ❤️
Mate what a great band. Some of our favourites are Khe San Standing on the Outside Flame Trees Working class man Many more to choose from. Jimmys a good bloke who’s had a few medical issues of late but he’s still getting it done. They formed in the 70’s in South Australia and are fantastic live. I followed them on tour around Australia (they didn’t know I was ther of course 😅) although I had a beer with Jimmy in Northern Territory (best schooner ever). Don Walker was a talent who wrote many of their songs for 10 years one in particular was about a mate of his about his story in the Vietnam war. Thanks for the memories dude.
Love the channel and your reactions. Just saw cold chisel in concert last week. Absolutely brilliant. Check out khe sanh, flame trees, forever now, when the war is over (live), cheap wine and Saturday night ARE A MUST.
Brother. Aussies have been rocking out to this for 50 FUCKING YEARS! You need to find Aussie music my man. So many amazing bands over so man genres. You want to do an Aussie week with two or three songs a day to get you going. Let me know mate I will line the whole week up so you can go from 60’s to now. ✌🏻 peace

This was such a banger!! Jimmy Barnes brought me here, but I'm staying for Cold Chisel!
Check out Way Down for Barnsey's & Mossy's vocal harmonys.
Ian Moss is arguably the worlds most underated guitarist
Just an average bar blues player.
Agree
He's a legend in Australia
@@ep9421 And Frank Gambale isn't.
Philistines.
@@axeman2638 what have you done. Absolutely fucking nothing.
To the Aussies who commented.. how lucky were we as a Gen x having these bands being the song book of our youth!
Oath!
I was working my way around Australia with my mate in 1987 in an old Valiant station wagon, we were driving north from Perth and my mate bought 2 tapes, the first and second Chisel albums. Until then, I 'd thought of them as just another pop band. Man, was I wrong. I've been hooked ever since. So many of their songs define different aspects of Australia, from Bow River to Sweethearts. It wouldn't be Australia without Cold Chisel.
Mum wouldn’t let me listen to Jimmy, Sadie was ok though and ac/dc was purely demonic first taste I got was Midnight Oil.
When I was young I was too kool for skool for barnsey, but now I know he is a once in a lifetime talent. So glad I was there to witness it. Xxx
Great time to be alive in Australia
its criminal that these guys weren't international superstars... Easily one of the best bands Australia has ever produced..
"You got nothing I want" was the reaction to how that fell apart. As I understand, it was an ode to the American music business.
They are the best in the world. What better than that????
Because they wanted everyone but jimmy
Because they stayed true to their hearts. Selling your Soul for fame and going down the dark road isn’t what TRUE AUSTRALIANS are about 🤙🏻🇦🇺😎❤️
Nah.. nice to have them as our secret soul bands.... sometimes going to big ruins the magic...
Don't be so surprised...you are listening to one of the greatest songs ever written and recorded by possibly the best band you'll ever have the pleasure to listen to..
100% accurate 👌
Ahhh no...
Ian Moss Guitar and vocals are incredible on this track. My favourite Chisel song hands down.
Beautifully said, the ONLY reason they didn't rip US apart was , there American manager was a dick and most of the band, wanted to come home, BUT man you missed out!! If you want to blow your mind, breakfast at sweet hearts and when the war is over, you will be in tears awesome 🤘
@@natwally7869he made that who band to be totally honest.✌️
Jimmy Barnes sang on facebook for free during the covid era with his wife Jane playing guitar , just to cheer everyone up. Absolute Legend .
Cold Chisel
"When The War Is Over"
Khe Sanh
You Got Nothing I Want
Breakfast at Sweethearts
How lucky were we Aussies growing up on the Chisel?! 🥰
Barnsey and Mossy’s voices blend so perfectly it’s ridiculous. Ian Moss is a successful solo artist in his own right. Fun fact: my intellectually disabled brother is a huge Mossy fan and has seen him play in our home state ofTasmania, Australia, at least four times. Ian always says hello to him, happily has photos taken with him, and REMEMBERS my brother’s NAME. That’s a man right there.
I love that.
I have never had the pleasure of meeting Mossy. But he is an absolute legend, and now I know he is also a great human being.
He's a true gentleman always, Mossy never ceases to amaze me how good he is with people, his patience knows no bounds.
Cold Chisel Australian Royalty
Jimmy and Mossy are Australian music lengends. Period.
Don't forget the chap that wrote their songs, Don Walker.
The Aussie band rabbit hole is huge, jump on in.
I was gonna say, "welcome to pub rock".
🎯🎯🎯🎯💯💯💯💯👍🇦🇺
Was working with the Army in Timor about 15 years ago. Ian moss flew out and did a private show for a couple hundred soldiers. Lasted about 3 hours and he hung around afterwards to take photos with anyone who asked. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen 👌
Cold Chisel was the perfect "blue collar" Aussie pub band. Absolute legends. This is the great music I grew up listening to 🥰
Ditto , from Christiano in Straya . Grew up listening to Chisel a bunch of other awesome bands . Would not be surprised if I attended my first concert "in utero"...
"I've been working hard/12 hours a day/ and the money I've saved won't buy my youth again".
Cold Chisel is poetry for the working man. A lot of Aussie references but a lot of stuff in there that I bet others could relate to as well. And the melodies and delivery were amazing too.
Cold chisel are Aussie legends, forever now, flames trees, cheap wine
Flame Trees always gets me to my gut.
One of my all time fav also! Always brings a tear to my eyes
Khe Sanh, Standing on the Outside, Rising Sun, Choir Girl, Star Hotel, Saturday Night, Flame Trees, Houndog, Letter to Allan, Ita, Four Walls, Forever Now, My turn to Cry, My Baby, No good for you, Best kept Lies, Breakfast at Sweethearts, Wild Colonial Boy etc
Let's no forget Four walls one of the best underrated chisel songs.
@@darrenshanahan1777 thank you for the suggestions

You Simply MUST play When the war is over !!🙏

Their energy is insane. I absolutely love this band.
Ian Moss, possibly the most underrated voice in rock.
Ian Moss and Barns were one of the best combinations their voices just worked so well together
I think you'll enjoy "if something is wrong with my baby", soul/blues style, Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham & Desiel.. 2 of the best singers alive & killer guitar... but warning... hearing John will send you down another rabbit hole! There's nothing he doesn't sing well!
This song was not even released as a single. Legends!

Flame trees.

Barnsey and Mossy are legends in their own right but together........
My first live concert, Chisel, the Models and the Divynals. Checkout boys in town, the Divynals. Chrissy Amphlett was awesome ❤
And to think i paid $5 a ticket to hear them live in the Sydney hotel circuit - back in the late 70’s and 80’s - we were spoiled !!
Barnsey = Jimmy Barnes singing “Soothe me “with Sam Smith ; and singing “ When something is wrong with my Baby “ with Farnsey = John Farnham.

Whatever this ^ guy said, ditto. About the same age. Saw Chisel 3 or 4 times. Felt alive!

Yep, they came back from the US and wrote “You Got Nothing I Want” as an up you to the American recording executives. 🙂 Another brilliant song- ruclips.net/video/-BiJKq7ynms/видео.htmlsi=ysxPNlzPQ2_x_EwO
Ian Moss!!!! Insane.
For some reason the part where Jimmy goes off, towards the end, makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. It's so intense.
4 great singers and 5 great songwriters...
Cold Chisel, from my hometown of Adelaide, South Australia..
Jimmy grew up here (Born in Scotland).. They did their first gigs here..
Dave Blight, the harmonica player, still plays at blues bars around town. Im glad you call it harp, people look at me strange when I do haha...
I play with song with my Gen X band, it goes OFF!
Saw them at the Arkaba in 82. It was fucken loud!
I never liked them when I was young, and now I can't get enough of them. Jimmy has aged like a fine wine.
Me too😂
I was the same.now in my top 5. Ian one of my fav musicians
Your hooked lol 👍- "Cold Chisel Live 1983 Ian Moss performs Georgia on My Mind" is an absolute must, along with "Cold Chisel - Wild Thing (Last Stand)" 🎤🎸🔥
Ian Moss was the lead singer of the band originally but wanted to step back from that position and asked the band to find another co-lead singer (as Ian also plays fantastic guitar). That's when Jimmy/ 'Barnsey' joined the band. 'Mossy' wrote this song from his own experience . Bow River is up in the tropical North of Australia. In this same concert, unplanned for and at the end of it, Mossy sings the best version of the American classic, 'Georgia' that you will ever hear ! The cameraman was so blown away by it that he made a special video of it !
Just like a jam session with mates. The best rendition also.
As an Aussie growing up on Cold Chisel, INXS, Midnight Oil, Rose Tatoo, Angels and ACDC its incredible that Aussie rock is still being discovered ......but Im happy you are here for it........and i almost forgot Silverchair - Frog Stomp album
Ian Moss had a successful career by himself as well, two songs come to mind, tuckers daughter and my baby
"Barking Spiders Live" is my go to Chisel album when I'm 2/3 through a bottle of Jim Beam Black. Live album loaded with bangers!!!
I recommend everything they've ever done!
Ian Moss did some great solo music too
Yes Cold Chisel were around from the mid 1970s till they disbanded circa 1983. One of my favourite "Chisel" songs come from their earliest era (1978) (?) and is called "One Long Day" (it's on RUclips you could check it out for yourself). I attended their "Last Stand" tour in, if memory serves, 1983 (ish) They have however re-formed from time to time for certain events. This video is from one of these later events.
I am going to see Cold Chisel in October, I can't wait.
Have fun! I’m sure it’s gonna be an amazing show! 😃
SATURDAY NIGHT!!!
Chisel are world class and a rabbit hole worth going down.... try "Wild Thing" from the Last Stand Tour....
That one keeps getting suggested! Definitely have to look into it! Thank ya!
Ian Moss has some great solo material as well. A lot of Aussie based music.
OMG YEAH!!! My fave Chisel song, thanks buddy! I love Ian's voice, check out 'Tucker's Daughter'!
Seeing them live in November!!!!! Yeah!!!!
Let’s gooooo! That’s gonna be a blast!
@@setonhillstudios It will be so good
i forgot how much dancing i did. i am gen x Aussie and i miss my bands. We would see bands four nights a week at pubs.
When I was eighteen I left home and hitchhiked to Darwin , My inspiration was this album , met many great people we got drunk, smoked heaps of shit. FXXK it was epic , now im 58 and still rockin to CC , cheers .
The third vocalist is the harmonica player David Blight!
Song is about the now long closed Bow River diamond mine in the Kimberley's of Western Australia. At the southern end of lake Argyle where the Bow and Ord rivers meet.
Back in the mid to late 80s, me and a few friends went to see Ian Moss at the Forester's Arms in Melbourne and it was a great show. Me and my best mate were sitting on the side having a beer after it seemed like the show was over then we heard the first couple of bars of our favourite song at the time, Bow River, so we made our way to the front of the stage was getting into it, when Jimmy came out to join him. it was totally unforgettable, one of my best nights ever.
Jimmy Barnes and Ian moss in cold chisel
❤❤Cold Chisel were the best going around, everyone of them full of talent, awsome🎉🎉
You should check out “wild thing” from the last stand concert. You won’t be disappointed!
Appreciate the suggestion! Thanks so much! 😄
@@setonhillstudios seriously you won't be disappointed. Cold Chisel doing "Wild Thing" live from the Last Stand tour has got to be one of the best live rock performances ever. 😁
@@MariaBM1yeah Jimmy Drunk he’s phenomenal and didn’t miss a beat 😂😂
@@guccigasbag2780 he's mind blowing! As is Mossy and the whole band.
Love seeing new people finding Cold Chisel. Check out Cold Chisel,Hell broke Lucy Official video. Im suggesting the Official video only because it is easier to understand the words of the song the first time.
We were lucky enough to see cold chisel play in the pubs back in the 70s. Ian Moss, legend, and Jimmy with his ferocious voice. One Long Day, epic blues track of theirs. Cheers mate.
G’Day mate, so happy you are loving some of our Aussie legends. Cold Chisel ultimate pub band. I grew up listening to these guys.
Jimmy and Ian Moss absolute fire.
Cheers Kev
Still one of the greatest songs ever made! still brings a tear to my eye!
Welcome to Chisel! Check out When The War is Over, live. I'm in Perth, Australia and have tickets to their concert here in October. Will be my 3rd Chisel concert and I've seen Jimmy about 13 times. Legends! 🤟
One of the best live bands I've ever seen. I used to go to pub gigs around Sydney when they played live as "The Barking Spiders" to keep the numbers down because they loved the intimacy of pub shows.
Welcome to the legend…as a child born down under in the seventies I had the privilege of growing up listening to these guys. When the War is Over is one of my top all time songs ❤️
Mate what a great band. Some of our favourites are
Khe San
Standing on the Outside
Flame Trees
Working class man
Many more to choose from. Jimmys a good bloke who’s had a few medical issues of late but he’s still getting it done. They formed in the 70’s in South Australia and are fantastic live. I followed them on tour around Australia (they didn’t know I was ther of course 😅) although I had a beer with Jimmy in Northern Territory (best schooner ever). Don Walker was a talent who wrote many of their songs for 10 years one in particular was about a mate of his about his story in the Vietnam war. Thanks for the memories dude.
Cold Chisel are legend’s 🤘
Love the channel and your reactions. Just saw cold chisel in concert last week. Absolutely brilliant. Check out khe sanh, flame trees, forever now, when the war is over (live), cheap wine and Saturday night ARE A MUST.
Brother. Aussies have been rocking out to this for 50 FUCKING YEARS!
You need to find Aussie music my man. So many amazing bands over so man genres. You want to do an Aussie week with two or three songs a day to get you going. Let me know mate I will line the whole week up so you can go from 60’s to now.
✌🏻 peace
