NEON WATERMELON became THE JOE HOOKER BAND, which was a very popular band during the 70s. In 1979 he joined SAFARI SET, and in 1980 PERFECT GAME, both bands regularly supported touring bands such as; MEN AT WORK, MIDNIGHT OIL, COLD CHISEL, JOE JOE ZEP AND THE FALCONS, and THE CLASH. Other bands that John has played with include: FLYTE, CHRIS FINNEN OFFERING, THE HOUNDS, LIMITED EDITION (Steve Foster), AUTO DE FE (Natasha Boyer), KASHMIR CHECK, SO WHAT/40 THOUSAND HORSEMAN, THE BACKBEATS, RUBY LANE, RUSSIAN CARAVAN, MAGELLAN, ROB BARTLETT, SCAFELL PIKE, CHRIS FINNEN'S 360 DEGREES, CRUISIN', THE LEGENDS, STEVE FOSTER (Duo), OCQ'S (Steve Foster), JBE, MY BROTHER JAKE, CHRIS FINNEN CLAN, and THE RODDY GORDON BAND.

Destiny doesn’t happen by accident… When Justine Carmichael (Sagittarius, aspiring journalist and sceptic) bumps into her old friend Nick Jordan (Aquarius, struggling actor and true believer) it could be by chance. Or it could be written in the stars. Justine works at the Alexandria Park Star - and Nick, she now learns, relies on the magazine’s astrology column to guide him in life. Looking for a way to get Nick’s attention, Justine has the idea of making a few small alterations to ‘Aquarius’ before it goes to print. But ‘small alterations’ can lead to big ripple effects… Minnie Darke – Gemini with Virgo Rising, Scrabble cutthroat and knitter, lover of books, freshly sharpened pencils and Russian Caravan tea – wrote Star-crossed to amuse herself and to entertain you.
Authors on the Air host Pam Stack welcomes debut romantic comedy writer MINNIE DARKE to the studio. About Minnie: Minnie Darke - Gemini with Virgo rising, Scrabble cutthroat and knitter, lover of books, freshly sharpened pencils and Russian Caravan tea - wrote Star-crossed to amuse herself and to entertain you. She lives with her family in Tasmania. ABOUT STAR-CROSSED: When childhood sweethearts Justine (Sagittarius and serious skeptic) and Nick (Aquarius and true believer) bump into each other as adults, a life-changing love affair seems inevitable. To Justine, anyway. Especially when she learns Nick is an astrological devotee, whose decisions are guided by the stars, and more specifically, by the horoscopes in his favorite magazine. The same magazine Justine happens to write for. As Nick continues to not fall headlong in love with her, Justine decides to take Nick’s horoscope, and Fate itself, into her own hands. But, of course, Nick is not the only Aquarius making important life choices according to what is written in the stars. Charting the ripple effects of Justine’s astrological meddling, Star-Crossed is a delicious, intelligent, and affecting love story about friendship, chance, and how we all navigate the kinds of choices that are hard to face alone.
