Arrival to Aussie land.

The flight was...long, but pleasant. We always get pampered by Qantas which Matt refers to as the 'good guy airline'.


We did a radio show the first day we got in. I ended up saying a couple things then passing out on the couch.


It's nice and cold here, a nice change from the hellish summer of Europe, or the blazing heat of Philadelphia.


We went to the beach before the show, and it was beautiful.



The day off was nice to just get our heads straight and get some sleep. Our first show was awesome, but not without drama. There was some confusion as to what drum set we would use, but that got sorted out pretty quickly. The bigger problem was what head Matt was going to use. They got him as marshall jcm, but it wasn't the correct one. It had to be a specific model or we couldn't play 3/4 of our songs.


The show pressed on, and nuclear summer (Lochlans' band) killed it.


About 5 minutes before we had to play a life saving dude showed up with the head we needed.





We stayed at a dudes house outside the city, and it was quite comfortable. A little cold, but quote comfortable. Woke up this morning, hit a coffee shop, then a grocery store. We cooked up come eggs, veggies, and toast and had ourselves a nice breakfast.


We're gonna head out in a few to the venue for tonight. We're playing a record store, so we'll get there early and peruse the store, though we're all too broke to actually buy anything.
