The Crowns load into the Recovery soundstage for a live performance on one of the most popular live music shows in the country. Recovery was a huge Australian program at the time, airing Saturday mornings with live music performances for their audience \"recovering\" from Friday night.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe techs and designers had gone above and beyond in creating a soundstage with the Crowns logo hung high up and in the back of the band. The band was floored to see it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe show was fun, if not a bit nerve-racking. Playing that early, and in front of a small, quiet studio audience, was a challenge they threw themselves into. Additionally, Jason had to watch his mouth because they were told that since this was a live show, swear words were a no-no, and Jason can be a bit, how shall we say, \"in the moment\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hosts could not have been more accommodating and fun, special shout out to Recovery host \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/janegazzo\/\" title=\"Jane Gazzo\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJane Gazzo\u003c\/a\u003e for putting the band at ease!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the Crowns played this live broadcast, they were often recognized as they traveled Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"The precision they ran that show with was impressive, we had to be in tune and ready at the drop of a hat.

I had to review the footage with the techs afterwards because someone thought they heard a swear. I didn't utter a dirty word, thankfully. I guess they would've had to pay a big fine to their version of the FCC. The in-studio audience was a bit cold but what do you want at that time in the morning?\" - Jason\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage 1\u003c\/strong\u003e: Recovery in-studio audience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage 2:\u003c\/strong\u003e Video of Crowns performance on Recovery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImages 3-8:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Crowns performance, with The Porkers horns for Do The Devil!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage 9:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dennis meets his adoring fans behind the studio after the show.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage 10: \u003c\/strong\u003eJason and host Jane Gazzo talk about Australian music and fan out over Nick Cave and The Birthday Party.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImage 11:\u003c\/strong\u003e Recovery hosts and crew!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhotos from the collection of Dennis Kelly\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVideo from the Collection of Jason Kendall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Amazing Royal Crowns","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45560142790807,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0632\/6570\/2039\/files\/img20250610_13383715.jpg?v=1759869471","url":"https:\/\/www.royaltotheloyal.com\/products\/recovery-tv-appearance-aus-1998","provider":"Amazing Royal Crowns","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
