Australian Tour Journal Part.3
Still as cold as hell, tonight we're playing an all-ages show at The Underground.
Joe's friend Ian lending me his old-skool drumkit so things are looking good tonite coz I've been having some trouble with the drum set in our last few shows. We got there at 8 pm, many kids were already there. Mostly teenagers. No smoke and alcohol [it's an all-ages show, yay!] so we gotta sneak to the alley for a drink/smoke session. We were playing with Adelaide's Son of Dad [ska punks], Hoodoo Voodo Dolls [psychobilly], Patriachal Death Machine [hardcore punk] and The Brews [yes, just like The Brews from Bali but this Adelaide boys playing a bit of streetpunk-core]. They were all amazing, especially Jake the guitarist from Hoodoo Voodoo Dolls, this kid rips and he's only 16! Thanx for the CD mate.
We hit the stage 10.45 pm, things went smooth, we finished our job with the pride of Kuta Rock City. CD's sold out, sold some t-shirts and got really positive feedbacks from the audience/bands. The after party? Just 10 meters away from The Underground, there's a kool artsy-lounge-bar called Tha Fad and we all went there, Footy and wife Laura [koolest couple on earth!] were being our party host, we also met some of the Adelaide's rockabilly and hot-rod rebels. Those guys were kool and friendly and we're planning for a BBQ and hot-rod session with them. We partied up until 1.30 am, went home, ate pizza and go to bed.
We'll have 2 days free before our last gig on Oct 9th at Fowlers Live and
will use our free time for some yoga and meditation with the devil.
Cheers and Vegemite,
Jrx
