The Totally 80s meowie loves mail!!!
 - small copy.png)
We are Totally 80s, a throwback from yesteryear dedicated to delivering the ultimate 80s experience.
The 80s was an era where music had substance and style. It was the dawning of the New Romantics, the explosion of synthesisers, electronic drum kits and gravity defying hair. The 80s was a generation that cared for the future and wanted an end to nuclear threats and starving nations.
Totally 80s are a Melbourne based 80's tribute experience that stay true to the sounds and image of the 80s, using the exact instruments from the era to reproduce the songs as they were recorded.
If you desire to be taken back to the days the where faces of Cyndi Lauper, Duran Duran or David Bowie plastered your walls, forget the DeLorean, Totally 80s is the band you're looking for to take you on a journey back to this magical time.
If you enjoyed singing along to Countdown, Top of the Pops or the latest vinyl or cassette purchased from Brashs, you will love Totally 80s live performances. Audience participation is a must, so dust off your pastels, neon, Ra Ra skirts and Hypercolour T-shirts, and Totally 80s will have you recalling the dance moves you copied from video clips and perfected on the dance floors of Blue Light Discos.

Felix has always been musically inspired. At an early age Felix would give concerts to his teddy bears, pet cat and the many hamsters of the neighborhood.
Not much has changed with the exception of Felix losing his baby teeth, taking singing lessons, now has more than 1 cat and has played to of tens of thousands of audience members over the years.
Due to enhanced liquor laws the hamsters can no longer come to the gigs, as security refuse to believe that it's thier ID.
Should you ever be subjected to Felix's music collection, you'll discover vary quickly why auditioning for Totally 80s was a gig that he wanted to land.
Totally 80s is a small taste of what Felix is into, his prized posession is his autographed Nik Kershaw The Riddle album finally meeting Nik 28 years after seeing him in concert back in 1985. Felix's other favourite artists include, Howard Jones, Level 42, Kim Wilde, Simply Red (see photo), Cyndi Lauper, Duran Duran, Tears for Fears, The Thompson Tiwns, ultravox, Spandau Ballet........ and sooooo on.
After saving all of his pocket money Felix now has an iPod that can instantly send him back to the 80s whenever he wants
As you can tell by the photos, Felix's hair style hasn't changed much since the 80s, but he cannot find the pictured black leather tie.
Felix can oftern be found being kicked out of newsagency's due to his constant demands for the latest issue of 'Smash Hits' or 'Countdown' magazines, Felix refuses to believe that the 80s are over.
I first tried a Martini at the age of 16 and although bitter to the taste and not too fond of the olive, I could feel a sense of connection with the drink...... almost, a calling.
Now in my older years many drinks have passed on through me like light beer on a summers day, particularly in the 80's with The West Coast Cooler, Pina Colada, Alabama Slamma, and the B52, but none have triggered the same emotional attachment as the unmistakable combination of Gin, Vermouth, and an Olive.
Richard Farrugia began playing drums at the age of 13. Growing up in the 80's he became obsessed with Icehouse, and was inspired by their drummer, Paul Wheeler, whom he also idolized.
By the age of 19, Richard began playing professionally around Melbourne with cover bands such as The Mop Tops, The Mockingbirds and The Party Flyz. He has toured extensively interstate and overseas and has played support to major acts such as Mental As Anything, Marc Hunter of Dragon, Venetta Fields, Lisa Edwards, Normie Rowe and Russell Morris. He also played along side Billy Miller of the Ferrets when in The Mop Tops.
Gus is the founding member for Totally 80's. Gus started playing guitar at the age of 7 years and later progressed to keyboards, mainly studio programming and sequencing.
No MP3 backing tracks here!! Everything is manually sequenced and played!!! Just like in the 80's.
