Australians would be very happy to see Neil Finn.

Just thought I'd share what he has to say about being identified as Aussie or New Zealander, and where he stands on it.

Quote:
He doesn’t think that much about why Crowded House is called an Australian band. “You’re lucky enough to find a bunch of people who enjoy playing - in the early days it was two Australians and one New Zealander and we formed in Melbourne. I find it quite flattering and endearing...it’s like being invited into another family; and I lived in Australia for 14 years so to be considered one of them, I just find it really kind of lovely. People in New Zealand sometimes get a little bugged...and perhaps it’s of passing annoyance to a couple of people in Australia – but mostly people accept it like we do.”
