And I suppose you most like 'Long Way to the Top' for the bagpipes!

Actually the local rag recently had an article pointing out that it was in Wollongong the they had their first success. Apparently they had done about 6 gigs before they were booked at Corrimal (a suburb of Wollongong) Community Hall, earning $50 for the gig. They went down so well that they were booked for another 10 gigs. That was in 1974 and I was living about 1km from the hall but never heard anything about them until a couple of years later. So they aren't my fault!!
