What ever Happened to These Musicians

Firstly I'll start with VH1 "Bands on the Run".
I thought that it was a very good show. What I wanted to know is what happened to the bands. I got my aunt to get me the Flickerstick Album in the states. I taught that it was very good . I see that they have a follow up (which I haven't got) . How have they done in the States?
Does anyone know anything about the other bands in the show?

Any update on any of the singers on Rock Star INXS?

    Flickerstick played in Nashville last night...a few guys have left the band...the drummer I believe...I don't keep up with them a lot, but I check out their website from time to time.

    INXS played Nashville last Saturday.

    that first flickerstick album was pretty great i think. i loved that show. never heard their followup, but they tour now and again. i saw them in columbus and they were ok. their sound was fucked up though, all you could hear was drum and bass... none of the great guitar leads or vocals.

    i also went abroad with a girl who used to date their lead singer. that was kind of an odd crossing of paths.

    not well. they signed to epic and like a lot of bands got pushed to the side with promotion and eventually got let go. They are now on an indepedent label out of dallas. these guys should be huge

    not sure if they're still making music....i don't think they are. i think yothu yindi (another aussie act) still make music.

    Have we lost our way tonight?
    Have we lost our hope to sorrow?

    Feels like were all alone
    Running further from what’s right
    And there are no more heroes to follow

    So what are we becoming?
    Where did we go wrong?
