Like many of us Australians, the first time I saw Southern River Band live was at your gig at the Enmore Theatre last year. I was totally blown away by this band and I've seen them play several times since. They instantly brought to the mind the classic rock and roll I grew up on (many decades ago). I'm old enough to be their grandma, but every time they play near me you will find me in the front row dancing my Docs off. Thank you so much for bringing this wonderful band to my attention.

Thank you, Justin, for bringing SRB to your channel. I've been a fan since I saw them with The Darkness in Brisbane in 2022. I have since seen them twice more when they come to Brissie and I tell ya - Stan Qualen slaps hard when they are live. I always manage to find myself hard up against the stage and just about lose my head every time. They should be headlining stadiums and when that day comes, I hope the be that old bitch on the barrier that goes to all their Aussie shows. They are on repeat on my Spotify, I've lost track of all the SRB shirts I have... My kids know exactly who SRB are and I have two under 2!! It should be mentioned the chemistry between Cal and all his band mates on stage is nothing short of electrifying, captivating and soul grabbing. They are true entertainers and I'm proud that they are ours. 🇦🇺 Thank you for choosing them in 2022. Thank you for introducing the world to SRB. And thank you for bringing them to JHRA. ❤❤❤

I know these guys from the local music scene here in Perth (Fremantle in particular) and Cal is, in real life, pretty much how you describe him. And his outfit (or lack thereof) is how I last saw him when he and a couple of the guys dropped in to Mojo's (a great small venue in Fremantle) after a gig I think. The place was packed and suddenly there he was, larger than life and shirtless, wearing an outfit similar to the one in this vid you' reacted to which I found hilarious for all the reasons you have mentioned, and grinning in his big friendly style...so yes, great band live and a bunch of nice guys.

Seem them this year when they supported Eagles of Death Metal over here in Western Australia. My mate and I stood at the back in front of the sound desk and the EODM set finished with the frontmen of both bands coming down the back to us and doing a guitar solo play off arms reach distance from us. It was a very memorable moment indeed.

Yo, Justin! First time commenting but have been lurking and watching your content for awhile now - just wanted to say thanks for making great videos like this that help introduce listeners to new music. Would have probably never heard this band but I'm really digging the vibe - his voice just fits the music so perfectly. Cheers!

I will DEFINITELY be checking them out! I've had a bad stomach bug all day and been puking out my entire insides and I don't even care now 😀 I'm happy again!
@SuziQ.9 ай бұрын
I’m sorry that you’re sick. Puking is so unpleasant and violent and I hate that feeling. Do you have any ginger beer (not alcoholic), ginger ale, or ginger tea?

@@SuziQ. Thank you! 🧡 It's the absolute worst! ☹🤮 It started at three in the morning yesterday and not until about 12 hours later was I able to keep some light soup down. I didn't have any ginger ale or ginger tea, is ginger good for that sort of thing? I had medicinal charcoal, it seemed to help some. Justin's videos airs at 6 pm here and I was so exhausted I stayed up only for that and then went straight to bed 😅 Still a bit weak today, but I think it's over.

@@MariaFrancesca , Ginger ale helps. Ginger beer is stronger. I think it helps more. There’s not much you can do except try to stay hydrated until you can eat saltines. Pediolyte, or some kind of electrolyte drink can help restore the electrolytes you lost. I know it’s the worst. I prefer pain over nausea, if I’m going to feel like shite. I hope it’s over, and you feel better. 💙

@@SuziQ. I do feel better today, though stomach is still not really onboard with solid food. I found some fluid replacement fizzy tablets at the back of my medicine drawer. I'll try those and buy some ginger ale to have in stock for future problems! I'd prefer that, too! This was like... half the time you thought you were gonna die, and the other half you wished you would die 😅

@@MariaFrancesca , I’ve been there. It really is worse than migraines or chronic back pain or a broken bone. The charcoal probably helped. What type do you buy? It’s probably something I should keep in the house, just in case.
Thanks for tipping me off to this kick ass rock act. I'm going down a SRB rabbit hole next! /Cheers

Thank you Justin for introducing me to yet another deadly band! I knew this song was reminding me of another song that I love, I think it's Are You Ready? by Thin Lizzy. Another fantastic band, I'm proud that my Dad took inspiration from them when choosing a name for his only daughter lol

Ha! I just made the same comment. Glad to hear I’m not going mad thinking it sounds like Are You Ready.
