I'm a Dual Citizen USA-AUS... "Mate, Australia is the worst paying of anywhere in the Free-World! TV, Film, Music... Really bad. I fought with Unions there all the time... When they, Australian companies, i.e., Ad Agencies, TV Producers and other such exploiters use 'Outside' Material... i.e., The Stones, they pay the going rate... When they use "Home Grown" unknowns, like you and I... they will screw you, won't kiss you and forget getting a call. I 'really' hope you are the one to change this "Bloody Aussie Trend". Could you be 'The Music Mesiah'?

Melbourne and Sydney are the same... Perth, Queensland and Adelaide... Get out the KY Jelly.
