    Jesus.

    If I'd missed this cos Ticketmaster made me queue with the Take That people, there would have been actual murder today.

    Worked out though. Yes!

    I enjoyed the last show, but it's a pity they don't play more songs. I know the on-stage banter is part of the act, but they shouldn't leave so many killer tunes unplayed - it's criminal!

    Hasn't sold out yet, I checked yesterday at midday thinking they'd be all gone, I don't know has Metallica tickets going on sale at the same time had an effect on it, anyway I'm glad to get sorted, I missed them in January.

    Dead right.

    It was gas, but they left out several of the best tunes.

    Meanwhile, shame it's Vicar St. Not especially fond of that place.

    Gus G added as main support, a nice surprise. Guessing he may join them for Crazy Train.

    My initial thoughts as a Steel Panther fan; quite a few of the vocals were mimed?

    That's actually a compliment. I was up front for most of the gig. I can guarantee it was live. Tonight Micheal's mic went faulty .. no vocals when he had to get a replacement mic ..

    Someone coulda had a free ticket last night as muppet almighty here managed to drop my ticket out of my pocket! :D Got to the door and realised I had no ticket, slight panic! I walked back out on to Thomas St and there it was lying in the middle of the footpath!

    Anyway, the gig was excellent, they really are a brilliantly entertaining live act. One very minor gripe is that maybe a couple more of their own songs in the set would have been nice. Hearing the crowd bellowing the opening lines of Community Property was a highlight (again!), though. I didn't know any of Gus G's stuff, but he was great and worth getting in early for. Stage times given above were bang on.
