It’s a great trivia question: Who was the first lead singer of Skyhooks? Greg and Fred started a new band, Skyhooks, and asked Steve to be the singer. The trouble was the populists didn’t realise Skyhooks was satirical – nor the Skyhooks themselves, I might add. After leaving Skyhooks, Steve headed west, teaming up with Joe Camilleri and former Scumbag member Andrew Bell in a band backing a stripper. I am very disappointed with the whole Labor movement, I think they have sold the working class out.”Just like in the Skyhooks, Steve was out of time and out of place.
