[Craig Lawton]

After reading Beds are Burning I was left with the impression that they 
may be reticent to release any new material because it won't live up to 
the Midnight Oil thing and that without the charismatic PG they might 
lack the drive to do so.... could be talking out my arse too

I  hope they do though. Both JM and RH are great songwriters, both JM 
and |MR are great guitarists. Put 'em all together and it will be worth 
a damn good listen.
