last thursday, fantastic concert.

played some now songs, like 'black rain' which is all good and well, but tore the fucking roof off with 'burn one down', 'with my own two hands' and 'steal my kisses'. they kept coming back for more, too, because the audience wouldnt stop clapping. at one point we were all up clapping and chanting and climbing all over one another and he walked on stage and said:

"one more, for you, melbourne!"

and played burn one down, with the reggae drum beat clamouring on for 10 extra minutes while he twirled around the stage. i dont know how they did it, but the hippies managed to sneak joints into rod laver and simultaneously lit up as the song started, as is customary.

stayed behind afterwards in the bar for a few drinks and ended up talking to the innocent criminals (louis, the fat bassist) and my boyfriend disgraced himself, squealing like a little girl when harper entered the room. i on the other hand was a picture of grace and style...

best night ever!
