DOGS IN SPACE & MELBOURNE'S LITTLE BAND SCENE

The year is 2023, I'm watching a youtube video, an old rage recording of one of my favourite bands music video's (Ghostwriters, When the World is Almost At Peace). And im scrolling through the comments, and one comment sticks out too me; it states "This song has always felt like a response to Max Q's Way of the World", or at least something to that effect. And so I look up "Max Q Way of the World" and I thus fall in love.

I, as any Australian growing up post 1987; already know of INXS & by extension Michael Hutchence, but I had no idea of his involvement in the single, self titled album by the Band Max Q. Formed of Ollie Olsen & Michael Hutchence, (may they both rest in peace) and a few other friends doing backup instruments & vocals.

Amongst my wikipedia deep dive into the band, I stumble upon a reference to a 1986 film which they (Michael Hutchence & Ollie Olsen) both worked on, Dogs In Space.
