Hi,

My mum sent it to me of all people!! Mum follows a church of a different
kind :)

An article from Melbourne's Herald Sun

THE CHURCH LOSES CONGREGATION

"The old rockers all behaved themselves at the Queenscliff Festival last
weekend, well almost.
Billy Thorpe was a peach and Richard Clapton was fine, but the Church,
well... "They behaved like private school brats," our Eye spy said.
First the boys wouldn't sign a large poster like other acts because they
were "tired".
Then frontman Steve Kilbey wouldn't wear a white "access all areas" wrist
tag because it clashed with his outfit.
And finally, when a punter asked them to play something vaguely
recognisable, a band member sneered: "Get a life."
Maybe the guys must think they're still big stars or something."

Hmmm, maybe Steve's old 'mate' Stuart Coupeland was behind this
article...actually, I think its kinda of funny ...for heavens sake, they
played 8 oldies out of 10 songs!..but if anyone thinks its worth a response,
send to eye@heraldsun.com.au

BTW Steve said in an interview that they wouldnt go on "The Panel" (which is
a very popular late night show here in Oz) because the producers insisted
they do 'UTMW'. I had to agree with Steve, why shouldn't they be allowed to
play their newer stuff, that song is so old now, and they have a single out
for godssake!

Did anyone pay attention to their music??
