I MET MICHAEL Briefly!!!!
My Sincere & Deepest Condolences To The Hutchence Family, Inxs, Friends of Michaels & To The Global Community of Fans of Inxs & especially fans of Michaels.
Such a dark & tragic Loss to loose a wonderful front man of Michaels amazing Calabar. The world literally stood still for a moment in shock to hear of this tragedy. I certainly did & still do.
I met Michael briefly in Canberra Australia (My Home Town) back stage at the Canberra Theatre, when i was about 19 . Michael had walked in through the backstage doors. (I was waiting determined if anything to just say Hello to Michael. As he was visiting my Home town after all) Than his Onterage followed him , but not before i had a chance to bravely & very nervously introduce myself to Michael personally. I was so nervous i cant even remember if we shook hands. But we stood face to face , i could have tickled his chin he stood that close to me, looking directly at me, i was taken by surprise as i also could see do clearly a few pimple scars on his plump cheeks the Cameras always cleverly hide. (Thats why the scars surprised me, hes so photogenic!!) . I said to him quickly ‘Hi Michael Im Maira from Canberra a friend of the headlining band !) quickly than he totled off to follow his entourage, as i walked away with butterflies pinching at both my head & stomache. I watched Beautiful & Slim Helena Christianson walk past me following him.
My Housemate at the time (an x kinda boyfriend) s band at the time was opening the Gig for INXS in Canberra Australia. Id previously spoken to the events manager for Canberra to Book this Band to open with INXS.. The Hammonds!!!
I was to shy to follow the group any further back stage or to ask Michael if hed had Dinner or needed anything etc.. We Live & Learn!!
When i was younger between 14 & 16 i saw INXS play at the Canberra Stadium. I was a highschooler attending a Girls Catholic School in Canberra. Amazingly enough Michael was literally the first MAN in the Universe, on the planet EVER to grab my attention.. Unbelievable stage presence..
Thank you for leaving me with such an awesome lasting impression of you Michael.. if only Rock & Roll hadnt taken you to the edge & you were strong enough to fight those thoughts when feeling moments of tragic dispare.
No Mans Stage presence has ever grabbed my attention like you had ever since. Not even Bono of U2 but hes up there..
I was in Cambridge England, where i am now when i heard of your tragedy. So Sad. Rest in peace Michael Hutchence x
