Paul's Nudity

Quite right, Shakespeare. Paulo was really into his own nudity there for some time, he and Nick were pretty wild. I think that the whole naked thing was a part of their hedonistic lifestyle during that period, not to mention their humour. I guess becoming a parent has morphed him into a more sober, fully-clothed individual. Have you SEEN the ubiquitous Wiggles? I have trying to catch the famous "Fruit Salad" episode but it's a pretty hard show to take...kinda makes me want to break things...

Although not wanting this discussion to get too lewd, there's a very famous Paulo anecdote where he's "playing" a microphone with his penis at an American gig - I believe Peter Green has the full story, or else you can check out "Something So Strong", the Crowded House biography.

I've always wondered about Paul and Nick...

Good! I'm not the only one who wonders about Paul and Nick...and here I was thinking it was just me, and watching the CH videos dvd too intently.

Aren't they all married with kids?

Nick's divorced with no kids (as far as I know). Paul has a couple of kids I think, that he had with his girlfriend Mardi. If I'm reading Peter Green's FF15mins correctly, I guess that's over cos PG mentions that he met Paul's new girlfriend...

It's an Australian guy thing- we boys strip at the drop of a microphone..hence why Neil always won those strip poker games...then again some serious nude moments for everyone during the recording of Together Alone.....our English Producers were always so bashful and probably scared...and rather white!!!!!
I'm actually naked while I am typing this.... ok I am lying. C'mon- it's Paulo- what do you expect from a man who is calling his solo CD HAIRY NUTS- he's probably seen a few from those nude Crowdie boys *grin*.
As I think back I think we saw Paul nude far more then with clothes on.....Nick does a full frontal shower scene in the Together Alone EPK/Doco. So yep Crowded House and Nudity go hand in hand.
Think I've covered everything...or undercovered as the case may be.

P.s first nude stage moment was a bet in Split Enz...and Paul won everyones per diems..except mine as I KNEW he would do it.

Peter, you've finally shed some light on just what's wrong with good ol' Oregon - not enough Australian men spontaneously doffing clothes! Can we work on this problem??? Shelli

Hadn't been to this thread for a while. Good read. Thanks for the insight, Peter. Unfortunate name given the topic.

according to neil, it happened at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles.
i saw Neil at the Wiltern back in Feb. and he was recounting that bit to us. Paul stripped down from a Santa Claus suit and proceeded to "beat the microphone with his penis."

good old paulo!
