A friend of mine first introduced me to the music of INXS in 1980 when he bought the album INXS
I was instantly hooked. I was about 17 at the time.
We would search the gig guides to find out what pub they were playing that week and if it was one in Sydney we would make every effort
to go and hear these guys play.
I remember one gig in particular, they were playing The Vicar of Wakefield in Dural and we got there about 4pm just so we'd get the best seats.
When they finally came on around 9pm we were about 5 foot from the front of the band (no stage, just played on the floor in front of us all).
As always they had the place raging and I remember coming out after the gig drenched in sweat and feeling fantastic.
They were some of the best days of my teen years.
I was absolutely shocked to hear the news of Micheals' death and remember thinking that we had lost one of the greatest front men of all times.
I really miss those days and miss Micheal just as much. I know how the family feel and feel for them deeply, as I also lost a brother in 1982, whose
name was Micheal also. He too was great fan of INXS.
Thanks for the great memories Micheal, INXS will never be quite the same without you. But I will always remain a loyal fan
