We rounded up the penultimate leg with a gig on Hindley St, Adelaide, at the Jive Bar. An impressively retro joint; it was another affair with a balcony overlooking the stage. The first band, The Kill Girls, hammered out such a loud set, we were worried the PA would be blown before we could get on stage. A surprise appearance backstage by MC Suffa from Hilltop Hoods bolstered our confidence before we stepped on stage, and we smashed out a nice and rudely loud set. The crowd was an appreciative blend of scenesters, hipsters and Adelaide Footballers; lending an agitated energy to the room that just went off by mid-set. It was great to have so much fun but a little sad to realise how close we were to the tour ending and real life re-commencing.
So here we are on our way back to Melbourne. We’ve got 4 days off to prepare for the NSW leg and I’ve got to warn anyone expecting us in Canberra, Bathurst, Sydney, Newcastle or Woolongong that we are using this preparation time wisely. Look out, here we come!
