Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide & Adelaide (so great they named it twice), Perth, Gold Coast and Brisbane…thank you so much for turning up to the shows. Let’s face it, there’s no show unless you attend – really – we can play to empty rooms (been there, done that), but it’s infinitely better when people turn up, and is the best way to experience TMOC, in my humble opinion, of course.
We all noted how celebratory, enthusiastic and dare I say loving (!?) the crowd were. Everyone seemed to be on the outlook for each other, I saw people being pulled up and helped amongst the mosh – it was like the old days when we all looked after each other – against the straights who’d stumble into gigs and think a fight was on.
We tried mix up the set, spreading songs from all albums, even Cap On John got an occasional run. Playing a lot of our favorites is always a great time for us as well.
We mentioned the Ill At Ease tour is still to come – look out for that. A favorite album of ours and for many people and we wanted to celebrate 25th anniversary in 2020, but well, you know.
So once again, many, many thanks. It’s been a great pleasure to see the familiar faces, and still new faces too. Behind the scenes we’ve also a firm faithful crew I’d also like to say thanks to them as well.
Till next time.
