Fuck me the sound was good and loud in the Opera House for this gig!!. Combined with some good seats at the side of the stage(which gave us an amazing view of Jim White's utterley captivating drumming)this made for a great night.

Also, who needs lyrics when you have Warren Ellis introducing songs with stories about falling down a hole and liking it enough that you stay and hang things up- because it is good!.

Dag Nasty.

Welcome To Washington DC. Out of all the great albums I purchased at Waterfront Records when it was near Central Station, these guys would have to be at the top of the list. The amount of time they have spent in storage boxes over the years-not being played, makes it an even more special occasion when they are being.

Chomps has been pulling some shots up from the grave lately and this one is a definate standout- ghostly Bondi bowl. Amazing what the Count does when he's not drunk on my lounge pre-empting his jokes with 5 minutes of laughter or practising his golf swing.
