12 CRACCUM 13 JULY Playing Live

Crowded House are keen to play live whenever they can, this included doing acoustic sets live on American and European TV, when mime is stan­ dard. Neil thinks it is a shame that TV is not used more for live rock perfor­ mances. Bands can have hit records and even a whole career in Europe and America without ever performing live. While in America doing an acoustic performance for MTV they met the 'Beastie Boys'. After the set one of the Beastie Boys came over and borrowed Neil's guitar and tried to play 'Fight for the Right to Party' and couldn't work out the chords.

Being a pop star does seem to have its hazards. Neil reckons that w ith the continual press interviews you are continuously looking at yourself and there is a real danger of becoming self-obsessed and becoming distracted from normal human rela­ tionships. 'Yeah — we're up ourselves', interrupted Paul. 'But we always have been', returned Neil. So, with that immortal quote, the press conference dragged almost to an end. After a quick presentation of platinum disks to them and All Black jerseys to Neil for him, his son and Ed­ dy Rayner, and a cup of coffee and a chocolate bikkie, I was off. Back to reality.

Catch you next week Brad M.

(Both these issues are stil available from the Craccum Repeat only what you have seen, not office.) But this time Harvey surprised me by being what is heard. Such should be left alone; nice.

Well, you can't see how big I'm indicating, so let me just ex­ plain that the blue triangle is kind of small. No, wrong again. The correct answer was 'Only after dark in country areas'. Months later, I was growing bored. Neither Harvey nor I had managed to answer a single question cor­ rectly. We thought about playing cards instead but before we could decide, a voice echoed outside our dwelling. 'Come on out, Harvey Furnishing, with your flippers in the air. Come on Harvey, we know you're in there!' Harvey was perplexed. 'What the hell do they want me for?' he queried, so I had to remind him. 'You've kidnapped me, remember?
