Men at Work

By May 1983, Men at Work was riding high on the success of their debut album, "Business as Usual," released in 1981. This album had propelled the band to international fame, particularly in the United States, where it included hit singles like "Down Under" and "Who Can It Be Now?". The performance at the US Festival on May 28, 1983, took place during a peak period in their career, shortly after the album had established them as major commercial artists. Notably, "Down Under" became emblematic of their style and Australian identity, often associated with 1980s pop culture. The US Festival itself was a significant event, attracting a massive audience, and Men at Work's energetic live performance showcased their appeal on a large stage at a critical time in their career. This era was marked by widespread acclaim and commercial success for the band, cementing their status in rock history.
