BRISBANE BAND THE SAINTS

Sorry, but I couldn't find a Thread for this great Band from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, which formed in 1973; They were originally called Kid Galahad and The Eternals.

I often post their stuff on various threads about here:

Hello, Nai Noswad,

Thanks for that; yes, they certainly were a "great Knacker Kicking Band"! I like it!!

Hi, sixtiesrocker..may have been mid-1977 i saw The Saints support The Ramones..it was at The Roundhouse...Talking Heads played...they were shit..and most likely on more nitrate than me!
These stole the show...

Nai Noswad: you're a lucky man: seeing The Saints, back in 1977! I was 16 years old, in that year; I've never seen them in concert, sadly.

Probably missed this tour 'cause of skintness..Barbarellas being the nearest...which was a damn fine venue.

 

[Nai Noswad]

Only got the 7"...great B-side.

^ Erics was a class venue..saw a very early Soft Cell and Human League...

I'm Aussie and I must admit I had to reassess this band after many moons.
I remember seeing The Saints' albums in a thrift shop in Sydney, but I was into HR and Blues Rock in that period and didn't care much for this band. Great rediscovery for me
