Bloody awesome. I've never seen this one. Sunday 21st September 1986 was three days after my 17th B'day, and this was the day we got a new IBM XT computer. My father had already messed up the dos settings, and thus Windows 1.1 wouldn't boot. Being the 17 year old, I was suppose to be the whiz to sort it all out, many long hours that sunday night, thus I had totally missed that edition of countdown, so this will be the first time I'll ever see this episode. :) :)

Well done everyone, for getting this one aired. much appreciated.

I always check the Facebook page directly; I never rely (and seldom even look at) on my 'feed'. I imagine there'll be a bunch of others who experienced the same mishap.

As soon at Retro Month is finish I don't usually look at the Rage fb page very much. A few weeks ago it would have been a different story.

Great to see an episode that truly sticks in my mind. In this case it was one of those rare creatures, an episode that I DID NOT see at my home. I was on holidays at Burleigh Heads at the time (first time in a long time that my family stayed at a hotel with a television too) and remember racing off the the headland to catch the show on time, and in record time I might add, so this one will always be on my mind in a special way.

As for the episode itself some real rarities, as indicated by others, loved the Hoodoo Gurus performance (great harp solo always a 'selling point' in any song for me at the time - it is the reason I love "Missionary Man" so much), Great Crowded House tune a real sing-a-long, Dragon with a real strong song to follow this up with and "Venus" to close the show out, what more could I want - not very much I DID remark to my late Father at the time. Great to feel like that suntanned teenager again as well.

A great month is at it's end and a good 'extra time' had by all, so in a crazy back-handed way thanks to the Socceroos and the Qld Electoral Commission to give us this extra special treat, but don't make a habit of it ok.

I've offered Chad a run off of the Sep 1986 ep, so just thought I'll let the rest of the forum know to prevent any crosstalk.

Cheers.
