Today we are set for some Aussie Rock greatness, with Southern Sons reforming after 25 years apart, Vanessa Amorosi, Jon Stevens, James Reyne, and The Voice himself, Sir John of Farnham. So I\u2019m looking forward to it.<\/p>\n<p>With garden seats everywhere, people had staked their claim early and the spot they wouldn\u2019t move from if their life depended on it, standing room at front is where I plonked myself for my most anticipated band of the day, that being the reformed <strong>Southern Sons<\/strong> as I mentioned above. Twenty five years since these guys have played on a stage together and in seeing Jack Jones solo performing the songs of his band he still has it, so for me seeing the band for the first time, yes I didn\u2019t get to back in the 90\u2019s will be a treat. Walking on stage to a big round of applause they get straight into \u2018More Than Ever\u2019 to warm up and this just sounds great, but it\u2019s when they take it to \u2018Always and Ever\u2019 which was one of their big hits that the crowd truly give the band a big welcome back, I say welcome back but I mean for now\u2026 or do I? This song just full of hooks and catchiness is a perfect way to start the day and hearing it with the band is just right. \u2018Something More\u2019 followed by \u2018Which Way\u2019 keep things rockin\u2019 along before the band leave Jack on stage with an acoustic guitar to play arguably the band\u2019s biggest hit \u2018Hold Me In Your Arms\u2019 solo and hearing the crowd join in and seeing the smile on his face is a testament to a brilliant song. Then they pull out one of my favourite Southern Sons tracks, \u2018Lead Me To Water\u2019 from their second album and I\u2019ve been waiting a long time to hear it played this way and boy howdy what a treat. This song should\u2019ve been a much bigger hit than it was. \u2018Sometimes\u2019 is another catchy ditty as is \u2018Waiting For That Train\u2019 which was prefaced by Jack saying he\u2019d keep the chit chat to a minimum which I know is tough for him, so well done in getting us some extra tracks in, Jack. \u2018The World Is Mine\u2019 allows the band, and I mean all of them, Jack, Reggie, Geoff, and Virgil to shine as musicians as they all absolutely kill this one, but the closer \u2018Heart In Danger\u2019 is what so many here were waiting for and it was perfection. The one that started it all for them finished things today and I get the feeling many were here early to make sure they saw this set. Welcome back, Southern Sons, let\u2019s hope this may be an ongoing thing\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vanessa Amorosi<\/strong> is up next and \u2018Absolutely Everybody\u2019 starts as an intro and an almost medley into \u2018Freedom\u2019 and starting that way got people remembering exactly who she is. Just releasing a new album she gives us a song from that before Vanessa throws on a guitar and rocks things up a bit. My friend Kat on guitar stays up on stage with Vanessa to play &#8216;Shine&#8217;, a song originally called &#8216;Die&#8217; she tells us which turns it much morbid as we sing it that way and with a 4 \/ 3 count the crowd joins in. \u2018Hello Me\u2019 then \u2018Mr Mysterious\u2019 mashed up a little with &#8216;Sweet Dreams&#8217; was a nice touch. \u2018Perfect\u2019 is a killer rock ballad and made me happy as you know my love of a good rock ballad, so this was an easy win for her in this set. An interesting beginning to her cover of &#8216;Dancing In The Dark&#8217; was actually damn good as it built into a big rocker, she did that well! Then \u2018Fire&#8217; and another Eurythmics cover with &#8216;Would I Lie To You&#8217; suited her voice so well and the band nailed it. &#8216;Who I Am&#8217; and its catchy as all get up chorus steals the set for me and I actually almost forgot this was part of her catalogue, this one was a big hit and live it turned into much more of a rocker. Closing the set, she bookends it with &#8216;Absolutely Everybody&#8217; again, but the full song this time and it was the only way for her to go out. A powerhouse of a voice and some great songs made this a surprise set for me and with what\u2019s coming up next things are about to get even more lectric.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jon Stevens<\/strong> has fronted two of the biggest bands in Australia, Noiseworks and INXS and today he\u2019s celebrating both of them, so we are in for a treat! Opening with \u2018Suicide Blonde\u2019 he smashes it out of the park, well, off the island in this instance before alternating bands and into \u2018Touch\u2019 from his band Noiseworks, even with keyboard issues you wouldn\u2019t have known and his powerhouse voice just takes charge. Back to INXS with \u2018New Sensation\u2019 then \u2018Noiseworks\u2019 with \u2018Love Somebody\u2019 it\u2019s just hit after hit, but as \u2018Devil Inside\u2019 takes its place the crowd love it and how can you not, it\u2019s songs like this that make you remember just how good INXS are. \u2018Miles and Miles\u2019 keeps the tempo on the same level and then \u2018What You Need\u2019 starts an INXS double with \u2018Need You Tonight\u2019 following, this one allowed the band to shine as he introduces the members and they showcase their talents, for me though Tony Kopa in his band is a treat, he was in his own band \u2018The Truth\u2019 back in the 90\u2019s and he still has that magic voice, so when he sang a bit of The Rolling Stones \u2018Miss You\u2019 and the band joined in, that sounded sweet. A special treat next with Stevens\u2019 Noiseworks bandmate Steve Balbi joining them on stage and seeing the way they interact is awesome, they belt out \u2018No Lies\u2019 which got the crowd singing and then I wasn\u2019t ready for two of my favourote songs in a row, not just of this set I mean of all time. INXS\u2019 \u2018Don\u2019t Change\u2019 followed by Noiseworks\u2019 \u2018Take Me Back\u2019 was a hell of a one, two punch as both of these songs were huge for both bands and the crowd let him know just that. As Jon says &#8220;Aussie pub rock is still alive it&#8217;s still kickin&#8221; it couldn\u2019t be more truthful, look at this turnout to hear these songs that everyone grew up with, nostalgia is great but when these songs are still part of everyone\u2019s everyday playlists you know you\u2019ve done something right. Closing the set with \u2018Hot Chilli Woman\u2019 the set went out absolutely rockin\u2019. That was outstanding. All killer, no filler.<\/p>\n<p><strong>James Reyne<\/strong> starts with a solo track where there&#8217;s \u201cno way out at all\u201d and as that fades &#8216;Beautiful People&#8217; kicks in and we&#8217;re now in full gear. We took a ride on a Train and some early sound trouble is rectified and yes! &#8216;Slave&#8217; I wasn&#8217;t sure if this one would get a run, then &#8216;Hammerhead&#8217; keeps that mid tempo perfect radio rock going. Back into the Aussie Crawl with &#8216;Downhearted&#8217; and then &#8216;Reckless&#8217; that got a big cheer as it should. Such a timeless song. Just perfect. As the crowd joins in from where I&#8217;m standing towards the back it just sounds awesome. &#8216;Motors Too Fast&#8217; takes it back to his solo work and live this always takes on a different vibe. It&#8217;s so good. &#8216;Errol&#8217; is up and the crowd truly love the Crawl stuff. The set continues with \u2018Water Water\u2019 and &#8216;Oh No Not You Again&#8217; which keeps things going smoothly. Oh yeah!! \u2018Fall of Rome\u2019!! which of course rocked then with only one more to go and it could only be &#8216;Boys Light Up&#8217; and it is still such a classic. Oh a sneaky one more &#8216;things Don&#8217;t Seem&#8217; is a perfect way to close this set.<\/p>\n<p>Here we go!<\/p>\n<p>The drums are thumping as <strong>John Farnham<\/strong> walks on stage and &#8216;We Will Rock You&#8217; is the opener. Bloody hell what a voice and what a band. From that into &#8216;Hearts On Fire&#8217; which is still catchy and a staple of a Farnham set. Yes! &#8216;Age Of Reason&#8217; is earlier than I expected and still 30 years on such a brilliant song. From one title track to another it&#8217;s &#8216;Chain Reaction&#8217; and that&#8217;s always a good time, was fun to see everyone bopping along. &#8216;Every Time You Cry&#8217; is up and the vocals from everyone in thus band are off the chain. Yeah it happened, &#8216;Sadie&#8217; had to get a run and it&#8217;s always a bit of fun. To the brilliant album \u00a0&#8216;Whispering Jack&#8217; and off it is &#8216;Reasons&#8217; and damn that&#8217;s a song and a half, still stands up, staying with \u2018Whispering Jack\u2019 and &#8216;No One Comes Close&#8217; then a Kiki Dee cover of \u2018I Want Our Love To Shine\u2019 that allows Brett Garsed to shine, pun intended. One more slow one &#8216;A Touch of Paradise&#8217; which is always a treat to hear and man can he still nail it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Talk Of The Town&#8217; brings the pace back up and FINALLY my favourite &#8216;Two Strong Hearts&#8217; and that is just the best, how can you go wrong with this song, you can\u2019t. Plus the backup singers still have the moves down perfectly. &#8216;Pressure Down&#8217; follows and even with a wrong line thrown in which made me chuckle, this song is still a huge favourite from those here. We&#8217;re obviously heading towards the end as &#8216;That&#8217;s Freedom&#8217; hits, it&#8217;s all the hits now. Oh sweet was hoping &#8216;Playing To Win&#8217; would get in and here it is, such a brilliant rocker that is. So you definitely know we\u2019re at the end of the set now as \u2018You\u2019re The Voice\u2019 takes its place in the set, this Australian anthem has everyone up and on their feet and so they should be. He nails it. Of course the bagpipes come out and everyone is happy. Closing the set with a cover of AC\/DC\u2019s \u2018It\u2019s a Long Way to the Top\u2019 he rocks Cockatoo Island and as I make my way out to line up for the ferries the applause at the end of his set is testament to this consummate professional.<\/p>\n<p>A good hour or so before the ferry came allows the day to sink in, and what a truly electric day it was. An amazing line up of Australian talent and it was a pleasure to witness and be a part of the day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Essential Information<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Venue:\u00a0<\/strong>Cockatoo Island<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:\u00a0<\/strong>November 9, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Website: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.onelectricday.com.au\">http:\/\/www.onelectricday.com.au<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The day couldn\u2019t be more perfect weather wise, and the ferry on the way over to Cockatoo Island was a great start to what I\u2019m sure will be a great day, an electric one if you pardon the pun.
