SUMMARY: Details on the name are hard to pin down, but the band was either called 'Dipstick', 'Dipstick Jellyfinger' or 'Dipstick Holiday'. Maybe it was called all three at different points. The band folded around 1997 with Cassie also playing in Scratch Habbit around that time. 

Bassist Shane Edwards went on to have an extensive career in recording, now currently working as a music producer in Thailand.

• Melrose Hall, Emu Plains - 5th September, 1997

ORAL HISTORY:

CASS: We jammed in a studio over near Toongabbie or Baulkham Hills. Ended up being too far. We were from the same school and year group as Scratch Habbit. Colleen was our singer and she had an incredible voice.
