I have a client named Patrick Murphy (maybe called "MURPH'), who was from Geelong, who was a bass player in a band. He is 63 years of age. I would like to know if anyone can remember him, and what the name of his band was called ? He has had a stroke, and can't remember much these days. He loves his great Auzzie Rock Pub Bands. Can anyone help, and knows the name of the band he was in ? I would love to put a smile on his face, and help him remember.
