Last month by chance i came across a post in thegearpage.net, someone asking if there was any love for the guitarists in Midnight Oil. Remembering i had some photos of Jim & Martin's pedalboards from Redneck Wonderland tour someone kindly shared previously, i shared the photos to the forum, and received the following message in reply. I'll post the photos in the photo section, (providing that's cool with the photos owner :)

Hello Lanny
 
by chance i came across your post on Jim & Martin on this website, which i've just joined to share these 2 photos showing Jim & Martin's pedalboards from the Oil's 1999 Redneck Wonderland tour. 

hope they may be of interest to you and other members of this forum

Thanks!
I am friends with Warne Livesey and have grilled him a few times about those two, D&D and the Blue Sky Mining sessions. He showed me a pic of the guitar collection during the D&D sessions, wow! A Tele was on more tracks than anything else, along with a variety of Fender and Vox amps. He also said that a great deal of D&D was recorded live off the floor, unreal. He said they were at the top of their game, absolutely on fire. I've seen them a number of times over the years. They always sounded perfect, through Marshall JCM900's, AC30's or Fender Tone Kings. All in the fingers :)
Thanks for the cool pix.
