Lobby Loyde a Tribute

Last night Tuesday 29th of August an amazing line up of Australia’s rock talent came together for a Tribute concert at the Palace for Lobby Loyde.
It was the biggest night in St.Kilda for years and the longest que I have ever seen at the Palace. Lobby and the Coloured Balls was the first live band I saw at Iceland Ringwood, Lobby represents a Time in Australian freedom that has now been lost, the working class teens of Melbourne became the Sharps and every suburb had it’s gang and every Sunday night they gathered at Iceland Ringwood to see Australian rock acts and Lobby was the one that led the way followed by many of the acts that came together for the tribute.
Thanks to the Bands, Support Act, the Palace, Ticketek, and many others who gave their time for this special night.

Here's an interview with Lobby posted June 16 2006 with some great pics
