In 1979, ABC’s Double J embraced the emergence of new wave and Mi-Sex became regular guests on Countdown, which saw the group shoot to #1 with ‘Computer Games’.

Mi-Sex plays all the hits from Graffiti Crimes – ‘Computer Games’, ‘But You Don’t Care’, ‘Not Such A Bad Boy’, and ‘Stills’ – all your favourites from Space Race (1980), Shanghaied! (1981) and Where Do They Go? (1983) – ‘People’, ‘It Only Hurts When I’m Laughing’, ‘Falling In And Out’, ‘Blue Day’ and ‘Castaway’ – and even a few newbies for fun, so let’s party like it’s 1979!
