The thing I love most about Australia is beating them in the Ashes . . . . that is all I came to say. .................. I'm going now before I get abuse

G'day Alex,
So who beat you guys 5 tests to a big 0, Oh yeah It was the Australian team.
Sorry mate, our turn to gloat,
By the way have you guys heard about Capricorn drums, Google them & have a look. I bought a snare from John, it's my favourite.

At the risk of reviving a slightly old post......... I'd like to say hello to everyone from here in sunny Queensland.
There seems to be a lot of New South Welshmen here, please don't gang up on the solotary northerner!
Hey, welcome to DC Chat's Aussie chapter, I think there's one or two other Queenslanders that come on now and then. I'm not worried where ya from at the least. So long as you've got that Aussie sense of humour, it may be Ocker, it may not, depends, that's all that matters. Mind you, some non-Aussies get it, others don't....just don't give 'em links to Rodney Rude or Kevin Bloody Wilson, and you might get away with it, lol.

AC/DC were originally 60% Scottish:
Angus Young, Malcolm Young and Bonn Scott were scottish immigrants to Aus.
Phil Rudd, Mark Evans (and then Cliff Williams) are Aussies.
Brian Johnson is a Geordie (Newcastle) and i think your man Chris Slade is a Londoner?
However, you guys did produce INXS, Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil and the Cat Empire so well done on that (not sure about Jason Donavan and Kylee Minogue though lol)
Apparently NZ are working on promoting their first singing sheep
If you are going through hell...keep going!

Well, Cliff Williams was born in London and grew up there and Liverpool.

Phil Rudd is Aussie born....but did you know his folks came from Lithuania? His real surname is Rudzevecuis. But you're right, both him and Mark Evans are Aussie born. Simon Wright who replaced him is English, and Chris Slade who replaced him is from the UK as well, although he's Welsh (probably why he worked with Tom Jones for a while in the '60's?). Mark also used to have a share in the ownership of Jackson's Rare Guitars here in Sydney. How I know that is that a good mate of mine, Noel Evans (no, they're not related, lol) bought Mark's share and helped to run the store after Mark left it. They've know each other for quite a while apparently.

New Zealand has more than singing sheep (and Flight of the Conchords, if anybody decides to mention them ), although I have actually heard sheep sound like they were singing, lol
