INXS was a band from Sydney, Australia that formed in the late 1970s. The band was at their peak with "Kick". The album featured four top 10 hits "Need You Tonight", "Never Tear Us Apart", "Devil Inside" and "New Sensation" and a bunch more that were played on rock radio.
I was able to see INXS once on this tour and lead singer Michael Hutchence was one of the best frontmen I've ever seen on stage. Sadly, he was found dead in a hotel room in 1997. Whether or not it was a suicide is a matter of debate. The band would continue until 2012 with a few different singers.
