I was a huge Mike Howe fan but I’m really looking forward to hearing this new Metal Church material.

Cockney Rejects were great. Played everything I wanted to hear save for On the Waterfront (surprised this was omitted) and West Side Boys (didn’t think this would be played). Might go again tonight. Tour shirts that the promoter has produced are terrible dtg print. Can’t believe how bad they are and didn’t really realise it until after I bought one. Haha.

After an Iron Maiden gig, bought a bootleg shirt on the way back to Richmond station (as an aside, have you ever noticed how everyone flogging bootleg shirts is Pommy or Irish? "I'on Ma'en t-shirts, twen'y dollas, two fer thir'y, come on lads!"). As I didn't want to spend whatever the official merch was, I paid $20 for the worst t-shirt design I've ever seen. Yet if I'd waited until the next bootlegger, 30 metres away, I would've got a knock off that legitimately looked as if it could've been the real thing.

If you saw the design, they should've paid me. Not the finest moment in JC's gigging life.

dtg print?
I find I only ever end up wearing the official tour t-shirts, the bootlegged & even the cheap market ones are never even as comfy too. I'm guessing they're made of a cheaper material..

Yeah, I stopped buying them years ago (the above incident may have swayed me). They just look and feel like s**t. I much prefer the official merchandise. It was only ever the really big bands where I bought them (Maiden and Metallica won't miss that sale), but I came to realise no matter the band it's just not worth buying a shirt I never wear to save on paying for a more expensive shirt that I will actually wear.

Direct to garment. Not a screen print. Might also be direct to fabric - got that plastic like feeling with the graphics on top of the shirt. Terrible.
Saw them last night. Not my thing but they put on a great live show. Marching Orders were almost as good. Had a quick chat with Dick from K-mart Warriors, they're playing Club 303 in about a month. Anybody familiar with that venue? I think he said it's in Thornbury.

Just came here to post that! There's also an Amon Amarth gig the night before I'll be aiming to go to.
Now playing: Saxon ‘Carpe Diem’.
I'd been waiting on this one, can't wait. Saw Body Count at that venue a few years back, seemed pretty good, hoping to get gen ad again.

This no Sydney date with Megadeth is gold. Stirring the pot.
