Presumably the bands who are actually playing have been able to put aside their personal feelings and focus on those of the people for whose benefit this concert is intended-   the people who have lost all their belongings, their homes, their towns, who still have burns, who nearly all had to drive through fire to survive, who have lost friends, neighbours and families.   Shame the Jets forgot why this gig is actually happening. --- On Mon, 9/3/09, Stuart Tangye <s.tangye@garvan. org.au> wrote: From: Stuart Tangye <s.tangye@garvan. org.au> Subject: Re: [powderworks] Somewhat OT - Jets To: powderworks@ yahoogroups. com.au Received: Monday, 9 March, 2009, 8:44 AM Another reason the Screaming Jets are playing the MCG is that no one asked them !
