The Roady4Roadies Events Are Back To Support Australia’s Road Crew

Roady4Roadies is on again for 2022 after a success 2021 series of events to support road crew decimated by the lack of work during the pandemic.

The events all over Australia are a family day connecting music fans with people in the industry. Each day starts off with a neighbourhood walk followed by family activities and live entertainment.

Jimmy Barnes has been working with roadies since he started touring in 1973. “The roadies are the guys who make the show work every night. They’re the guys we rely on. They’re the guys you rely on because you don’t know they are behind the scenes,” Jimmy said.

“The roadies are the guys who drive the truck all night. They drive to the next gig, set up, spend all day putting the gear back together after we’ve destroyed it the night before. We walk on stage and everyone thinks the show is perfect. And then we finish the show and they drive on to the next show”.

I worked with many of his alumni (including the man who helped invent him, fellow San Fran disk jockey Tom Donahue), and to say they and he inspired me would be a useless understatement.
