<p>Bo Diddley busy inventing all that is worthwhile in popular music. Moonwalking? Women in ballgowns playing guitar? Crazy rhythms? Wearing sunglasses inside? Yep, it's all here.</p>

<p>Theres a lot of influence there on George Thorogood, he mentions on one of his live tracks playing music with a Bo Diddley beat.</p> -

<br><p>I've seen them a few times, as a Sydneysider would, and my undying memory was being at The Metro back in '93 or '94 when they were doing an acoustic concert where as you entered you got to nominate a song (not that they played my suggestion). The crowd by then was very political following the albums <em>Diesel and Dust</em> and <em>Blue Sky Mining</em>. The support band was a trio of women called Tiddas. They took the stage and introduced themselves; <em>'we're Tiddas'</em> to which a bloke more inebriated than everyone else put together yelled out <em>'show us ya tiddas'</em> and he was escorted out as the crowd booed and jeered him. I recall feeling like I was the only person laughing.</p>
