I had been an INXS fan since about 1982 and saw them open for the Go-Gos in 1984 at the Garden State Arts Center in Holmdel, NJ. Michael commanded the crowd to “get off your asses and dance!” and we did. He was and is still the coolest rocker I have ever encountered. I am definately looking forward to the release of the solo album and for now am making due with my old INXS vinyl. Why do the ones we need around always have to go so soon? Somehow, it's just not fair. I miss him. God Bless.
