Just two months has passed since Powderfinger retired, and already a call has been made for the band to get back together.
The suggestion came as a cry for help from Queensland independent state MP, Rob Messenger in the wake of recent flooding.
Messenger has urged the legendary Brisbane five piece to re-form and stage a relief concert for Queensland flood victims and volunteers.
"I think it's a good idea, I've written to the premier asking for her support," he told ABC Radio today.
“This is a once-in-hundred-year natural disaster, Powderfinger is Queensland music… Queensland needs them right now." The MP believes that the concert would not only raise millions of dollars, but also raise the spirits of those affected by the crisis.
“A small holiday in the big smoke and a monster concert headlined by... Powderfinger is just the medicine that the regional flood workers and victims need to recover and shake off the blues," he explained.
The band have have not yet responded to the Mr Messenger’s plea.
