[Disease]

I went to a couple of gigs this week, I always forget to write about them here.


Thursday night I saw Swervedriver play at King Tuts, the venue was really a bit small for there sound and I had to give up my spot at the front of the stage for somewhere near the middle of the room to get good sound. It was a great set though.


Last night I went to see Robert Forster. He was one of the two song writers from the Go - Betweens. I almost missed the start of the show. I called the venue at about 7pm to find out the band times and they told me there was one support and Robert would be on around 9, but this info came from some one in the restraunt so I phoned back at 10 to 8 and get told there is no support and Robert is starting at 8pm.


Lucky I live near the subway and I was there half way through the first song.

It was a great set as well, he played lots of his old Go -Betweens classics and mixed in with old and new solo material. The set went on for 2 hours and he is a man with a very dry wit which fits perfectly with his music.
