Jimmy Barnes’ Recruited Diesel for Red Hot Summer and One Electric Day

The Jimmy Barnes Band switched guitarists last weekend for the Red Hot Summer (Bendigo) and One Electric Day (Werribee) events. Danny Spencer was tagged as a “close content” and had to isolate for the weekend. Lucky for Jimmy, his brother-in-law Diesel was just a phone call away.

Diesel was Jimmy’s guitarist in the late 1980s and early 1990s, playing on ‘Freight Train Heart’ and ‘Two Fires’, so Diesel was right at home with most of the setlist. The rarely played ‘I’m Still On Your Side’ even made an appearance.
