These guys have been everywhere my whole life. I seem to have missed the news they had decided to call it quits.
I know the fish album well, but I have some favorites from many of their other albums as well.

Was never a fan fan, but as you say they were always there. I saw them many times and often unintentionally at various festivals. They always gave 120% of themselves when performing . Bloody hard workers. I was lucky to see their final final show day after homegrown. 2 albums played back to back and another whole set . 3.5 hours. That is not easy to do and they gave everything never waning, and showed appreciation to their hometown. It was an appropriately epic and very emotional night. It only took 30 or so years to win me over but I’m now a fan.
I first saw them in the Wellington Town Hall some 20+ years ago. Amazing show, Jon Toogood was hanging off the mezzanine playing guitar, after climbing up a stack of speakers. I agree, they really give it their all.
