As we expected, Michael Gudinski has been the highlight of a very impressive lineup of speakers at today’s Face The Music. Below is a series of our favourite quotes from our favourite impresario. Enjoy!

On his secret to success: "Being my own boss. I’d have been fired a dozen times if I wasn’t."

On Peter Garret: "What the fuck did Peter Garret do when he got into politics. Fucked up a great band and fucked up his life."

On live music: "It’s a disgrace that there’s not an Australian band opening for every international band that comes to our shore."

On the biggest problem in Australia music: "It’s the fucking government."

On festival: "Festivals mean green grass.. Rapture with Eminem is coming up and its a concrete city. What the fuck is that?"

Gudinski about to premiere the new Dan Sultan clip. "You’re about to see what Mushroom can do."
