And finally, as always, Still Together, Mac’s ode to his Kiera. My Kind Of Woman is all too swiftly followed by “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” ( Chamber Of Reflection).
Mac asks the crowd if they’d rather go soft or full throttle for the next song. The band accessorises as Mac announces POND’s Jay Watson, “Please welcome Daddyo to the stage”, and we launch into the formative Rock and Roll Nightclub.Īndy: “Thank you, Jay Watson. Andy then motions for any remaining hats to be thrown on stage. “Play some fuckin’ Chisel,” Mac adds in his best Aussie droll.įreaking Out The Neighborhood fires up and it is impossible not to dance along. Suddenly, Andy is riffing Thunderstruck by AC/DC and there is some laid-back banter going back and forth on stage which is honestly a big part of why we all come to these shows. “Thank you for singing, I like that song.” We slide into Still Beating, it decidedly does. He announces the next song will be a quiet one which “may or may not work, we’ll see”. There’s booing and then cheering as confused LA-via-NY-via-Edmonton Mac figures it out.
“Apparently everyone is saying Scott Morrison.” “Hold it… What?”Īndy chooses one lucky punter to explain. Mac: “What are you saying?” Chanting boozily resumes.
Not long after the magic subsides, a chant of “Fuck Scomo” erupts in the throw.
An ocean of dotted lights illuminate the warehouse. Stage lights off, phone lights on for Another One.
