What’s your story?
Two guys are at the pub. One of them says, “Let’s form a band,” the other says, “Ok.” A few weeks later they meet a girl and ask, “Do you wanna be in our band?” and the girl says, “Ok.” Henceforth, RIGHT! is formed.
If someone walked past a RIGHT! gig having never heard of the band, who would they say it sounds like?
Little Richard on PCP.
If you guys could support any band past or present who would it be?
Perhaps MC5. Their shows were pretty exciting, always going off and bloody nuts. It’d be great to support Betty Davies in the ‘70s. Funk at its best. Suicide or Merzbow come to mind: noise value for the ears. Also, given the chance, Karen Dalton would’ve been awesome to play with. We would change our set just for that one.
What record from history would you most like to have been a fly on the wall in the studio for? Why?
Ask the Ages by Sonny Sharrock, because we never got to see him live and it would just be fucking cool to watch them doing that. Or Eddie Hazel playing Maggot Brain, that would be incredible.
Tell us about your show at The Prince Public Bar this Friday?
We are looking forward to playing our first south side show and sharing the stage, with acoustic extraordinaire Ben Salter (Gin Club), plus St Kilda rock legends, Kim Volkman and the Whiskey priests.
RIGHT! are playing at the Prince of Wales Public Bar this Friday November 7.
