On why he's going to OZ:

Quote:
Sayer acknowledged that the music industries in Australia and the
United States were similarly focused on youth and manufactured acts.

"You do have that, yeah, but you still respect your heroes," he said.



Nearly fell out of my chair.

1970s Pop Star Hopes to Restart His Career

Hey man, Sayer was all proto-post-punk-funk, the grandaddy of Franz Ferdinand, teaching the world how to spin punk energy to a disco beat back in the '70s. The dudes a giant.

And you think that clown suit was s'posed to be cute? Uh-uh. Scary as fuck. Every night Slipknot and ICP get down on their knees and say a prayer to their lord Leo.
