Episode 171: My Friends Sarah Blasko, Johnny Mackay (Children Collide, Fascinator) and Patrick Matthews (Youth Group, The Vines) - LIVE!

After a super-fun first round, the late crowd shuffled in for a second round of Bar Bands banter. This time around, it was a celebration of some of David's formative years in front of the stage and listening in his bedroom. This included Hurstville's own Patrick Matthews - founding member of The Vines and bassist of Youth Group - as well as Children Collide frontman Johnny Mackay and ARIA-award winning veteran vocalist Sarah Blasko. There's a lot of history here - some well-remembered, others best forgotten. It's all a lot of fun, though. Besides, arguably no other podcast this year will take you from lunch at Warren Ellis' house to The Big Banana to The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Special thanks to Kristy Pinder, Betty Fink, Chris Sheppard and Roly Elias. Recorded live at The Vanguard in Sydney on October 25, 2020.
