rage goes retro 1 blurb is up!

https://www.abc.net.au/rage/guest/retro-month-2021:-week-one/13109656

Seems like the Dr Hook episode is being played, I have it on Timer Code but it has been on my request list for years as I want it without Timer Code as it's an AMAZING episode. There is a mention of Rock Arena and GTK as well. It also says 11:50 pm start but rage always get their starting times wrong as I looked on my Foxtel guide and it says 12:50.


There seems to be a mention of an Australian Crawl hosted episode which may be another of my requests.

Re: rage goes retro 1 blurb is up!

Hi there Jason,

Definitely 11.50pm start time - there was a repeat of some show originally taking place at 12.50am but that's been scrapped for this week.

Re: rage goes retro 1 blurb is up!

Okay, really? That's great news!!!!!!!!! As the Foxtel guide is ALWAYS right and it still says that rage starts at 12:50am and that the show before starts at 11:50pm.

Re: rage goes retro 1 blurb is up!

Just asked them, it seems it was misprinted..still 12.50am..which is crummy but what can you do..would've been nice to have that 11.50pm start

Re: rage goes retro 1 blurb is up!

Ughhhh, I knew it was 12:50. If rage just played rage goes retro as it should have been in January then there wouldn't have been this late start!

I HOPE that throughout February there isn't a 12:50 am start every Saturday night!
