Perhaps Chris and Buzz were off somewhere rehearsing "Sounds Of Then"?

He's shed all of his 80s puppy fat and is gaunt and a bit spaced out and not quite as eloquent as he used to be. The only casualty from the 80s who looks scarier is possible James Freud from the Models at that Countdown spectacular

Hell Freezes Over Again, The Angels Reunite

After more than a decade, one of the bitterest separations in Australian rock ever has been resolved. Doc Neeson will return to The Angels.

The classic line-up of Neeson on lead vocals with John Brewster (Rhythm Guitar, b/v), Rick Brewster (Lead guitar), Chris Bailey (Bass,) and Graham 'Buzz' Bidstrup (Drums) will headline the 30th Anniversary Golden Stave Foundation Charity Luncheon at the Hordern in Sydney on June 27th.

The Angels will then head out around the country for the Face to Face Anniversary tour.

To coincide with the reunion and tour, Albert Productions will re-issue a remastered edition of the classic 'Face To Face' album, which is also having a 30th Anniversary this year.

'Face To Face' featured The Angels classics 'Take A Long Line', 'Shadow Boxer', 'Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again', 'Coming Down', 'After The Rain' and 'Marseilles'.

In recent years, the band has been in a constant state of legal battles with lead singer Neeson who was suing them over the use of the name.

Saw them as the Moonshine Jug & String Band. Performed at lunch time at our school.

Saw Chisel perform at that underground record shop in the mall (was it a mall then?) infront of about 20 people on a Saturday morning.
