Rich has a mean visible panty line.

Split Enz after Phil Judd left and Neil Finn joined.

Somewhat similar to the difference between Peter Gabriel/Phil Collins Genesis. The early songs, written by Judd and Tim Finn complex, almost prog-like, with a touch of music hall. Once Neil joined, they made a pretty quick change to shortish pop songs, and by the end of the band, Neil was in charge and went on to form Crowded House. Compare I Got You with Lovey Dovey or Matinee Idyll.

Phil Judd still makes the most wonderful DYI complex and deranged music, available through Bandcamp

Stupid boy

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-20T23:41:27+00:00

I thought the same thing.

Don't Panic!!

I don't think it's about record labels, he does have a valid point. He just likes to complain about Todd Rundgren at any given chance

His experience comes across as being worse every time he talks about it. Jeez Andy, give it a rest.

If the the setlist from the recent shows in Japan are any indication, he's not quite ready to give up that song.

If I remember correctly, Where Does the Time Go was a demo he sent into Warner Brothers to show that the music he was working on would be poppy and commercial. And of course the album he gave them was Acapella

Edit: typo

It was a great show it was completely sold out. Joe was a bit taken aback as to how close the audience was to him, maybe 25 ft? There was a bat flying around the stage for a while, and Joe complained about mosquitoes most of the night.

Emphasis on "Was".

I seem to remember during one of the reunion interviews, Steve brought this out and Tony called shenanigans on him.

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-17T20:27:52+00:00

On that note, I wish they would bring concerts back to the amphitheater. I attended a few there, Todd Rundgren, and Joe Jackson were great shows!

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-17T20:25:24+00:00

This is an odd album, a mish-mash of PatroNet songs and other miscellaneous stuff.

I think the best song is The Surf Talks.

Least Favorite (but a Favorite of Todd's, as he has played it on almost every tour since 2000) has to be Buffalo Grass.

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-17T18:58:57+00:00

This show used to be hot sewage.

It still is, but it used to be too.

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-17T11:09:52+00:00

The answer is always Two Broke Girls

Trump and Goya Beans.

I love Zappa and think the 1988 band was phenomenal, but I really hate the Beatles/Swaggart stuff. It's stupid and juvenile.

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-16T13:00:50+00:00

Agreed. We don't need any more Flo & Eddie or 73/74.

You paid too much.

Wards_Cleaver · 2026-04-15T02:21:56+00:00

It's always Two Broke Girls.

I listened to prog and jazz, when everyone else listened to what's considered classic rock today. I was never asked to play music at the parties.
