Slinkee Minx rocked at Federation Square, they were my fave act and looked so hot, I’m going to buy their album ‘Electric Dreams’.. I loved when they did the song ‘Summer Rain’ and their next single ‘Send me an angel’ is going to be a smash! Go Slinkee Minx!!!

Good to hear that Slinkee Minx are not only still around, but they’re impressing the crowds too. I was pretty surprised to hear they were on the bill because they’ve been pretty quiet lately, but it’s nice to see they’re on the comeback trail. Glad you had a good time Matt!

Interesting comments, I was actually there on the day and can say Slinkee Minx are definately still around and are very hot indeed… I think they’ve been overseas or something in 07 … they had a top 20 hit in Finland in 07 with “way of life”.

Looks like maybe I’ve just been a bit out of the loop! It seems like the girls still have a lot of fans out there - glad you enjoyed the show Max :-).
