Veruca Salt on ABC TV's "Rage" in late 1997

This is a series of funny ID's that Veruca Salt's Nina Gordon and Louise Post did for when they 'guest programmed' the Australian music video show "Rage" late in 1997.
It was filmed during their first Australian tour (circa October 1997), which sadly was the catalyst for Nina and Louise's undoing :-(
However, you can hardly sense any friction during these clips

So glad they are back. man... I loved Rage back when I lived in Oz. For those that don't know, and from memory, it was like old MTV from midnight to 6am on Sunday morning and played nothing but music video and had on guest programmers who just picked there own favorite songs and videos for hours. Just what you wanted when you come home half cut and plonk on the couch with a couple of friends. And as it was on the ABC, NO commercials. Got introduces to so many cool bands this way back in the 90's.

I second Evan, re: Brisbane and Adelaide.

[@MosheAlvarez]

Ok so how was this Australian tour the catalyst for the original line-up's demise?
I work on Louise's guitars but I've never asked her too much regarding Nina's departure. Some of you here seem to know a lot more.

[@MosheAlvarez]

Yes, I was still wondering. Thank you for your reply, much appreciated

[@louisepost6077]

@@jellieman1 Incorrect. Cheated. I found out. Broke up with him.

[@louisepost6077]

Moshe, you got my number, dude. xo

[@startervisions]

Ribbit :)

[@ColorsBright]

Each song they mentioned I reallly really like YAY Bjork, YAY Lemonheads... Prince ehhh not so much. Nina looks like she wants to scratch Louises eyes out at the end.

[@abortionrock]

hey Prince kicks ass at basketball, you better watch out!

[@ColorsBright]
