Morpheus Back to the 70s

By Tony Polese · On February 10, 2020

The Morpheus have a reunion concert in the Adelaide Fringe. Feb 22nd at the Highway Inn!

It’s the original MORPHEUS line up Scott Bradley, Joe Williams, Carl Pink, Ben Little and Quinton Dunne presenting Morpheus Back to the 70s  -Thin Lizzie, Bad Company, Bachman Turner Overdrive, Steve Miller Band, Rolling Stones, Doobie Brothers, Free, Joe Walsh, Deep Purple and many more rocking 70’s guitar classics. These guys rocked Australia in the 70s and 80s and they’re back to show how it’s done. Kitchen 6pm support 8pm main act 9pm

A short history: in 1973 won the Come Out Battle of the Bands in Adelaide. 1977 – Signed with an agency and Management and in 1978, moved to Sydney. All living in a four bedroom house in Lewisham for $80 a week! If you have ever read, “He Died With a Falafel in Hand”, that is what life was like in 1978 Lewisham. Rehearsing every day, downstairs in a shopfront and working five nights a week playing all original music, supporting everyone from The Ramones to INXS. 1980 – changed their  name to Damaged Goods, cut their hair, and headlined the infamous Bondi Lifesaver wearing pyjamas onstage! 1981 – Things came crashing down with line up changes and illness. With the band still flat broke and spirits low. Early that year they broke up, the end of an amazing three years amongst the Sydney Live music scene; where Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil and The Angels were KINGs living their rock n roll dreams every night of the week.
