The Angels - Re - United Tour ( Doc is Back ) Selling FAST !
Waves presents one of the all time great bands of the 80´s and 90´s
Friday August 1 @ 8 pm
The Angels
featuring Doc Neeson, Rick & John Brewster, Chris Bailey and Buzz Bidstrup
THE ANGELS REUNITE
Yes it’s true…. Rock fans everywhere rejoice…. The Angels Are Back!
It was a decade ago that seminal Australian rock band The Angels decided to call it a day. Their charismatic frontman, Doc Neeson, was involved in a horrific car accident that prevented him from performing for several years but after rehabilitation he went on to form Doc Neeson’s Angels. The rest of the band continued to perform as The Angels Band. In August 2007 tensions boiled over between the two parties and the The Angels court case was splashed across newspapers throughout Australia.
Now, after months of mediation the former band mates have decided to reunite, and to the delight of music lovers everywhere, reform as the original line-up of Doc Neeson (Lead Vocals), John Brewster (Rhythm Guitar, b/v), Rick Brewster (Lead guitar), Chris Bailey (Bass, b/v) and Graham “Buzz” Bidstrup (Drums) … The Angels.
On the 27th of June 2008 The Angels will headline the 30th Anniversary Golden Stave Foundation Charity Luncheon at the Hordern Pavilion. The Golden Stave has raised over $10 million for children’s charities since 1978. The Angels will then hit the road on the Face to Face Anniversary Tour. This 20-date run across the nation will revisit the venues and shows that made them a household name.
To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Face to Face, Albert Music and Sony BMG will be re-releasing a series of classic Angels albums. Scheduled for July is the re-mastered 30th Anniversary edition of Face to Face and The Angels ‘08 Tour EP featuring the previously unreleased song Open That Door, a live version of Who Rings the Bell plus exclusive bonus tracks. Not long after fans can expect re-mastered versions of No Exit, The Angels and Their Finest Hour plus This is it Folks, the DVD of The Angels infamous 1979 concert at La Trobe University.
This classic line-up is the most loved combination of The Angels and had that chemistry that made music history when they became ARIA Hall of Fame members in 1998. The combined song writing talents of Neeson/Brewster/Brewster has proven to be one of the best collaborations in the Australian music industry with seminal songs like ‘Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again’, ‘Marseilles’, ‘After The Rain’, ‘Face The Day’, ‘No Exit’, ‘Take A Long Line’, ‘Mr. Damage’ ‘Comin’ Down’, ‘Shadow Boxer’ and many more.
The Angels live show has always been a tour de force. Blitzed audiences across the world from the famous Whisky shows in LA with Guns ‘N Roses to the ‘riotous’ free concert on the Sydney Opera House steps on New Year’s Eve in 1979, leaving 100 000 reeling fans in their wake.
The Angels have always had their fair share of issues and controversy; it’s probably the reason for the sheer intensity of their live shows which catapulted them to the forefront of Australian music and kept them there for three decades.

Richard Clapton ( 35 Th Anniversary Tour ) Live In Concert @ Waves
Friday September 12 @ 8 pm
Richard Clapton
+ Support
Richard Clapton is one of Australia’s foremost singer/songwriters, with a career unparalleled throughout the history of Australian music. Clapton paved the way for three generations of songwriters to write about the experience of being Australian.
2008 marks the 35th anniversary of Richards debut album released here in 1973. To celebrate the achievement and the fact he is still as relevant now as he was then, Richard is going out on the road again to play live. This tour though will be special, because Richard and his all star band will be playing songs from his full catalogue, meaning that no two shows will be the same, and Richard will be road testing different songs to help decide upon a super set of tunes to be played at a gala performance mid year in Sydney. Richard has hinted that some of the songs have never been performed live before, making it a special reason to get along to one of these shows.
When he began his recording career in 1973, Australia was still in vice-like grip of the cultural cringe. He plunged into the deep water and in his wake followed the Skyhooks and Paul Kelly, Cold Chisel, INXS, Midnight Oil and hundreds of others.
Clapton’s songs are still on the radio. His records chart the political landscape of the nation and the turbulent lives of two generations. Clapton grew up in Sydney in the 1960s. He hopped a plane for London and then later to Germany where he wrote his first album, Prussian Blue (1973). It was the first major “singer-songwriter” album in Australia.
In 1975, Clapton had the critics on side, but Festival Records insisted on a hit single. However, it was the song they picked as a b-side called “Girls On the Avenue” that reached #2 on the national charts and put Clapton at the top of his class. Like Americans Jackson Browne and Bruce Springsteen, Richard Clapton developed a sound based on melodic rock while his lyrics were poetic musings on his state of mind or the state of the nation.
By 1975, Clapton had set the themes he was to explore for the coming three decades. There were frequent escapes to his spiritual second home in Berlin to recharge and get a fresh perspective on Australia; there was Clapton’s love/hate relationship with pop music; his often-tormented sense of growing up and his eye for the political landscape and how it affected Australians.
Clapton mastered that most difficult of show-business acts – the highwire that requires the balance of radio-friendly tunes and candid, from-the-heart lyrics.
These two came together on the Goodbye Tiger album; then Clapton’s most successful to date. The record was a new highpoint and there was significant international interest in Richard as a recording artist. A period living overseas brought forth the sophisticated Hearts on the Nightline. Then back in Australia in 1980 he released the searing Dark Spaces, an indictment on the meanness and mendacity that would blow through the 1980s.
Ten years after his first release, Richard Clapton was a tribal elder to whom younger artists like Jimmy Barnes, INXS and Cold Chisel turned as a mentor.
INXS asked Clapton to produce their second album, Underneath the Colours, and they became firm friends. They, and Cold Chisel, returned the favour on Clapton’s The Great Escape album. INXS drummer Jon Farriss produced The Glory Road album, and few records capture the craziness of the late 1980s as well as The Glory Road.
These albums brought Clapton’s melodic gifts and his love of electric rock & roll into lockstep. There were always the words though. No one better documented the 1980s than Richard. Richard frequently went to the edge — emotionally, politically, financially — and sent back his incisive postcards.
In the 1990s Richard continued to write and record and tour. However, for much of the decade he was plagued with lawsuits. Many of his early contracts were drawn up in the dark ages of the music business and they required untangling. Richard also found domestic harmony with wife Susie and their two daughters. His 1990s songs reflect a hard-won maturity. Indeed, Richard counts 2003’s Diamond Mine as amongst his best albums – and the critics unanimously agreed.
In 2005 he set about making the first acoustic album of his career. Clapton stripped back some of his favourite songs – re-imagining them in a different environment. The result is his 17th album – REWIRED, released in 2007.
This project was never intended to be a greatest hits record – and indeed many of his greatest hits aren’t here. It’s an experiment in hearing Richard Clapton in a new way. This provided Richard with the chance to tour and play his songs in a way they had never been performed before, resulting in another sell out tour across the country & culminating with numerous festival performances around the country including the Day ON The Green concerts and the arena filling Countdown spectacular.
Always willing to reinvent himself and one of the few iconic Australian artists who has managed to maintain a major recording career for the past 35 years, from the release of his very first album to his last, 2008 sees Richard in fine form and ready to get out on the road again and do what he does best.
Check him out at a venue near you…

The Living End Live In Concert
Friday September 26 @ 8 pm
The Living End
+ Children Collide
+ The Silents
The Living End’s amazing live shows have long been a staple in every music fan’s calendar with a fierce reputation for putting on gigs of the highest standard.
The band are now armed with an arsenal of new tracks from their forthcoming album ‘White Noise’ due out on July 19th.
They will be embarking on a national tour throughout September and October taking in regional and capital cities across Australia.
All that you’ve been hearing on the radio lately is ‘White Noise’! That’s because The Living End’s new single has been all over the airwaves as the No. 1 Most Added Track at Radio.
The Living End have already given a few lucky fans a taste of what’s to come with regional shows in Victoria earlier in the year under the moniker of The Longnecks.
The Living End also blew away the crowd at the recent Triple J ACDC Lane event in Melbourne. Despite a fire in ACDC Lane adjacent businesses almost aborting the entire gig, the show went on, moving 50m to Duckboard Place just hours before the scheduled event.
Filmed by triple j tv, the massive event will become the basis of a limited edition bonus DVD exclusively available with the first copies of the album.
The new single ‘White Noise’ is released on July 5th. The new album ‘White Noise’ will be out on July 19th with a limited edition bonus DVD of the ACDC Lane event.
