Byron Bay Shire resident, singer-songwriter Tex Perkins, performed at Sydney's New Year's Eve open-air event bringing in 2020.
Millions of people across the country and around the world saw his performance during the ABC TV live broadcast.
Tex dedicated the song The Honeymoon is Over to Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison.
Immediately and very publicly flipping him the bird while roughly facing Kirribilli House where the prime minister and his selected guests had gathered to watch the fireworks.
News Corp's main online media site reported on 1 January 2020:
He was hammering home his disgust at the PM’s alleged lack of action on climate change and leadership as wildfires lash large parts of the country
The jubilant crowd’s reaction would be painful enough, but Perkins’ aptly chosen song “The Honeymoon Is Over”, which he released as a member of the band The Cruel Sea, features on Mr Morrison’s Spotify playlist titled “How good is Oz Rock! (ScoMo’s Classics)”
