Although he must have been very gutted by that ruling last year on the 'Down Under' song that virtually said that they had stolen the flute bit in the song which really gave it some Aussie feeling.
Sad news, cool band!

Yes very sad. Men at work were a great band along with Midnight Oil, Crowded House, ...in fact some good bands from OZ.

I think a post of the song would be a good thing....one of their best songs as SM67 mentioned.
