What an absolute stool sample of a band. That lead singer (Dale something or other) ranks with Kyle Sandilands on my "People I Want To Kill Slowly" list. What an utter twat.
Good list though matey.....!
My claims to fame....um....as a drummer, my hero is Cliff Grigg from V Spy V Spy. I used to see him on the stroll from Syd Uni to Redern station, sat g'day and have a chat...I was 19 or so at the time and it used to blow my mind that I was in the same postcode as him, let alone speaking to him. We played a run of gigs with "The Spies" (sans 2/3 of the band....) in 2007-2008 and it wasn't quite the same....
I kissed Marco Pantani on the cheek after he won at L'Alpe d'Huez in '97 and although off my chops I'm quite sure he then touched my ass.
Oh and I'm second cousins with the Nolan Sisters....I shit you not (google them if ye dare). Hey, ya can't pick ya famlee!

My ancestor was asked to go with Burke and Wills on their expedition. He, fortunately, declined.

God? Of what God do you speak? An all-caring God would not curse me with such cursedness as that with which I have been cursed! Damn you sir, you and your God!
Moving on, relatives of mine were members of the "Black and Tans" and were executed by IRA members in 1920. Ironically when my father left Eire in 1966 a distant cousin of his had been living in the cellar of the family's pub for months on end, as the police had been searching for him due to his role in an IRA "event" of some description.

I hung out with Swollen Members backstage
Met Fat Mike from NoFX
hung out with Pour Habit (resulting in a new tattoo)
My grandfather took part in the Great Escape
His brother (\=my great-uncle) recieved 2 DFC's or something insane like that
I'm related to Rev. Samuel Marsden
I don't know if any of that is really a claim to fame.. but I think the stuff about my grandfather is awesome. One day I'll go through all his letters and write it up into a book.

Yer that was kinda the idea haha!There's a bit of ambiguity in that sentence NeBoS
1) I had 'relations' with this chick prior to some very famous Australian athlete coming into the world.
2) I had 'relations' with this chick prior to her becoming a very famous Australian athlete.
