I noticed the "News" page has been updated and negotiations are taking place for a second series of My First Gig. I thoroughly enjoyed the series and if a second one takes place I hope to see some of the following interviewed>

Renee Geyer
James Reyne
Angry Anderson
Brian Cadd
Broderick Smith
Chris Bailey
Tim Finn
Ian Moss
Deborah Conway
Jenny Morris
Tim Rogers
Paul Kelly
Iva Davies
Bernard Fanning
Dave Faulkner
Nick Barker
Be interested to see what other names come up?

I like your list!

Now I don't have Foxtel, so I have only been able to follow the show on the net. I'm sort of going on face value you could say.

If there is one area they could improve on in the second series, it would be to include more female singers.

Renee, Deb and Jenny from your list are all excellent suggestions. I would also be keen to see:

Chrissie Amphlett

and also some current artists who are doing really well:

Sarah Blasko
Patience Hodgson from The Grates
Clare Bowditch (she is doing the voiceovers for MFG. Could be fun to get her in front of the camera).

What about a list for a M.F.G show for musicians .
ie: Angus Young (musician) cant duet tho eh
and another with a world of great bands .Bobby Daisley.

Could even do a list of M.F.G for promoters, they would have great stories to tell .!!!


Cheers Rob

sherbet(altho they did come up aginst my fav BAY CITY ROLLERS lol ) were really big Little river band , auzzie crawl, dragon, just to name three would be interesting to see a full band interview .....

love to all wombie xx

the chisel boys wouldnt have to do an so called interveiw just lay around talking about " This one time on band camp ????" kind of stuff .....

just a thought
wombie x

Of course Mossy would have to be a definate and I reckon Don Walker would be a great episode of JB trying to get inside his head head on how he goes to great lengths to research a topic or individual he is writing the song about. I heard once he visited prisoners in jail to talk to them when he was writing one particular song.

Billy Bragg.

I know he is not from Oz but at least he's from the motherland
