    Drugs, shambolic (yet highly charismatic) performances and Rock n Roll, Gee who would have thought! This was one of my all time favourite Rockwiz duets.

    What a Joke
    Eyes like a possum caught in headlights. Swaring his lyrics. That may be OK for a music festival, but come on..with a professional like Toni Childs?? Just wrong. Didn't like it one bit. Toni deserved much better. Kick that man up the ass!!!

    Adam Green is a Rock Wiz
    This performance sums up the kind of energy Adam Green puts into his live shows. i saw him in Brisbane last year and was fantastic. it is great to see someone get up on that stage and step outside the square. good on them both!!!

    Man that rocked
    Where do all you stiffs get off??!! Don't you remember Iggy Pop? Missed the episode but on the basis of this clip....it's an inspired pairing, and testament to the creative potential of recreational drugs. Great voices and very entertaining. Orchestra rocks too. Toni still has it and looked like she enjoyed it.
