Hi John Brownrigg. Used to follow your group, The Feel Goods in the 1960's in Brisbane. I think you had a brother in the group too? My question is about Tom Stevens who was with you in The Sect. I went to school with him at Salisbury High from 1964 to 1967, but after we left school, we went our separate ways. Any idea where he might be? Tom also played with a couple of other Salisbury High guys, Jamie Dunn on vocals and drums and Hans Oosterloo in the band Hands Down. I'm pretty sure that Tom played bass in Hands Down and must have moved to Keyboards when in The Sect. Also, I remember you working at a groovy clothing store, upstairs from a jewellery store in the bottom end of Queen Street on the corner of Edward Street back in about 1968 or 1969. How do I know? Because I bought the grooviest (at the time!!) pair of trousers from the shop and you served me. Green woollen flares with button-up front! Man, did they pull the ladies!!😂 The things you remember from your youth! Anyway, cheers
