The Chasers did a segment with Australian band Spiderbait. They went into many stores in Melbourne CBD, including the local Org.

they're in the Org at 2:04. And there's the classic quote - this is the best bloody crowd we've had all day!

I think that was a comment from the band, not the org.

I'm aware of that, I just thought it was amusing. Says a lot about their other audiences that day.

I went to highschool with all the members of Spiderbait. Kram & Damien were in my year and Janet was one or two years ahead.

I have the DORKIEST photo of Kram in my collection from our senior dance night. I should post it - he'd die!

But then again he might post one of me! I had a perm and puffy purple sleeves attached to a purple meringue dress.

I'm having second thoughts.

That official from the Church who was laughing and degrading -- I think she's in trouble with management.

They were the only ones shown to call the police too. I know it may have happened elsewhere and not been included, but I doubt it.

In hindsight, maybe the better quote was "Who said you people were crazy?"

The mind boggles!...

Who was the fat lump in the org?

Was it Ivis?

I don't think so, but maybe. Isn't Ivis taller than that?

Paul

P.S. Careful DS--your MWHs are showing.

It was Pauline Priest.
