Forty years ago, Kevin Patterson and Eddie Jordan were tucked away in a Perth bedroom trying to fathom out how the most basic of kit was going to record their new song.
Decades down the line, the upshot of those experiments with fickle 1980s technology is still getting regular airings on radio stations around the world.
(Feels Like) Heaven went on to become a top 10 1984 hit for the hastily-formed Fiction Factory, with equally elevated chart placings across the continent.
They shared a Top of the Pops studio with a youthful Madonna and bands including Whitesnake and Musical Youth.
DJs Peter Powell and John Peel introduced the band from Perth.
The pop classic is certain to prove a show-stopper at the Kilmac-sponsored Craigie Hillfest today (September 10) as the original five-piece get back together for their first hometown gig since the glory days.
Kevin and Eddie are being joined by bass player Graeme McGregor, guitarist Chic Medley and US-based, one-time Simple Minds drummer Mike Ogletree for the Fair City gig, hard on the heels of a festival in Belgium which had been put on hold by the pandemic.
“With Mike coming over from his home in North Carolina it made sense to take up the invitation to play the Hillfest,” explained Eddie.
“Why would we turn down the chance to play Perth, where it all began? I remember we played at the old Plough Inn when record label CBS wanted to see a band.”
Kevin noted: “Eddie and I had done enough playing live in the Rude Boys and we thought maybe we could just write songs for other people, having no idea how that would actually work.
“Feels Like (Heaven) was actually our first song. We had a wee Boss DR50 drum machine and two ghetto blasters. It was all very primitive.

Christopher Vourlias The journey to the Lido has been longer than most for Ukrainian director Antonio Lukich, whose sophomore feature, “Luxembourg, Luxembourg,” has its world premiere Sep. 7 in the Horizons strand at the Venice Film Festival. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, Lukich’s life has been upended. Forced to flee Kyiv at the start of the war, the director spoke to Variety from Sweden, where he’s among four Ukrainian filmmakers who were granted a residency with the support of the Göteborg Film Fund. It is, he acknowledges, a world removed from the one he left behind. “It’s a great opportunity to develop Ukrainian stories when you cannot develop them right now in Ukraine,” he said.

The beginning of Bones and All is genuinely the stuff of nightmares and could easily stand alone as a short, tapping into the American tradition of the urban myth while at the same time laying down a deceptively sophisticated narrative. The rest of Luca Guadagnino’s latest doesn’t quite maintain this level of mastery and tension, which is in some ways a blessing, but that’s possibly because Bones and All isn’t really a horror movie. After the shocking opening salvo, the film sheds its genre skin to become an almost anthropological study of outsiderdom, using the false dawn of the American 1980s as a sort of petri dish for a new kind of conformity that has led us where we are today.
To love is to want to consume someone whole, to pick their skin and sinews out of the gaps between your teeth, to swallow their pancreas and wash it all down with gulps of throat-fizzing stomach acid. Take the age-old question that dominates the Grindr lexicon: do you want to be someone, be with them, or be inside them? “Bones and All,” Luca Guadagnino’s typically sumptuous, deeply romantic American parable — about a pair of teen cannibals, coming of age against the backdrop of ‘80s Reaganism — literalizes this allure, as any great anthropophagist love story should.
