Australian Tour!!! Has anyone heard if and when TMG are returning to Australia? http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,121200#msg-121200 Wed, 22 May 2013 01:20:25 -0700 Phorum 5.2.18 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,132602#msg-132602 Re: Australian Tour!!! http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,132602#msg-132602 It was strange to see no front row or a second row for that matter. "Jam Eater Blues" was pretty fucking awesome.

We passed JD, PPH & JW on the street at Byron about two hours before the show, I was that stoned and tired from working all day I didnt even click who I just dodged on the street. I stopped as I turned the corner cause my partner was standing there pointing in the bands direction with her jaw on the ground. At this stage I thought one of three dudes must have upset my other half somehow, I asked what had happened and still she could not speak. When she finally found the words it was explained to me the dude I nearly ran into was JD.

I felt like chasing after them to say hi but I gave it a miss cause I was pretty sure my tongue and brain would fail if i had seen them again.

The Zoo was its usual show, TMG going off and a great crowd apart from the farter:

Note to the farter: The smell was pungent in the front row for the support act, im pretty sure the stench scared Catherine of stage. Please seek medical attention - your colon is rotting.

The support act was the best yet, Catherine Traicos kicks ass!!! Her guitar style and lyrics were impressive, looking forward to what she does next.]]> cronic On The Road Tue, 15 May 2012 01:07:38 -0700 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,132576#msg-132576 Re: Australian Tour!!! http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,132576#msg-132576
Also, thanks so much for the Toff recording untalkative. Even with the squealing and such, now that I know a recording of the Corner show exists, I'd love to have it if you've still got it?

And now to wait impatiently for October.]]> DustedDown On The Road Sat, 12 May 2012 20:56:44 -0700 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,132520#msg-132520 Re: Australian Tour!!! http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?3,121200,132520#msg-132520 Don't think I will upload or even keep the recording from tonight. A girl next to me just destroyed the entire recording. A ten second high pitched scream after every song, a loud sigh/moan when the band started any song she wanted to hear and the most irritating high pitched giggle i've ever heard whenever John said anything, all directly into my microphone. It's louder than most of the music. I'm certainly never going to be able to listen to this recording and honestly don't think anyone else will be able to sit through it. Unless someone really really really wants it anyway.

Katoomba setlist updated! John covered Lonsome Surprise by Refrigerator which was quite lovely.

Wow! Saw the trio playing this in soundcheck in Dublin last year, after which Wurster, who'd just totally nailed the tune, asked "What was that?"!!

Nah, just joking. First Melb show was awesome. LOTS of songs and not so much banter, I was a bit surprised, but it's all cool. The story behind Diaz Brothers was hysterical.

I got to talk to JD after it and he liked my shirt. It's a shirt by [twitter.com], whom we're both fans of (and who is a friend of mine). We also talked about other cool twitter folk and feminism and he signed my poster and he was so cool to me. What a band!
