Chrissie Amphlett of The Divinyls passed away yesterday of breast cancer, aged just 53.  So sad.

Yes, very sad news.
She was one-of-a-kind and a real rocker!
Talk about balls-out vocals, Chrissie was the bomb.

R.I.P.  We used to play "I Touch Myself" which was a real rocker.  Used to always go well with the crowd.  She was a real looker too!
