I sold enough copies to turn a profit of approx $1500..  we also received airplay on commercial radio.

My band also supported paul kelly..  (yet we didnt actually get to meet him..  show's how much that statement really means )

Being hated is an effective way to be famous..   he really made a mark on that list

I'm not sure if you missed the reference or just find it that appalling.

Both, actually. Is getting the reference likely to improve matters?

For some reason, there's a lonely brain cell in there somewhere trying to tell me it knows. But the more sensible ones around it are all glaring at it and going "Shhhhh!"
