I was lucky enough to get preview tix to see Thunderstruck.
This is for anyone who has ever HEARD of ACDC and might have had a passing interest in their music. Anyone who has ever SEEN a bogan Anyone who has a smidgeon of exposure to the sterotypical Australian lifestyle. Anyone who recalls what the Foodlands logo looks like.
Its look at another aspect of Australian lifestyle and musical influences of the 1980's. I kinda wished the mullets got their own billing because they were something else!!!
Thunderstruck was about good old fashioned Aussie determination and nasty 80's haircuts.
It was also nice to see some Perth talent. Onya Werzel!
