 ...so I'm still reeling from seeing Hee Haw, Dropping Honey and Traces of Nut at Club77 on Thursday. Traces of Nut went Nuts and brought smiles to the dials of the Dropping Honey lads with a cover of "Fascination Street" by the Cure and then Dropping Honey throw up sonic walls of melodic melancholy and end of nicely with a Syd Barret period Pink Floyd tune, then Hee Haw decide to make their set one whole feedback piece, Lax Charisma swings off the lights up front and then returns for a Sisters of Mercy cover and "The Human Zoo"....That was Thursday... The cones are going nicely, the beer is chilled and the pills haven't kicked in yet and Elysium are going off at The Oxford Tavern and there are solos aplenty and heaps of energy but get yer filthy hands off that whammy bar because yer boring me shitless and making me crave Van Halen all at the same time. Monstrous Blues are cranking it and sounding fucking huge and somewhere in the middle of "Being King" the pills kick in and I'm riding those fucking riffs to god knows fucking where but shit it was fun and then El Sanchez are riding the cowbell and singing about never coming down and a chic called Lizzy and the walls are shaking and the beer is going down faster and then The Legends of Motorsport are ripping through all of those glorious riffs I know off the Beef With Cheese e.p. and I remember standing near the front of the stage and shaking my head in time to "Cream" and then calling for "RX7" and them saying they would play if someone would sing and I wanted to but all I could think was fuck this machine and now this morning with the sun beaming on my window I'm thinking it's never quite enough and I'm heading to The Excelsior in Surry Hills for another dose Of Legendary Monsters of Blue Motorsports and someone else opening the show and another beer, another bong another pill, another.... Fucking great night

Alright, sounds like a rockin time up there Spectator. The Legends are a great excuse for a party like that, funny blokes. Have you picked up there older EP yet? That song with the lyrics "If you use both hands to eat your food, you gotta learn to open your mouth" rocks me and makes me laugh at the same time, every time.

Yeh, that 'dinner and a show' song is definately on there, along with the rest of their best. You'll love this EP, but I can't find out what it's called or what label it was on cause I think I've lost it. Jeb should have a copy, otherwise I'd email them and ask 'em where to get it. I haven't actually seen it on the site at all.

  ;D. You see people! Do you see how cool Jeb is, thanks man I need to hear that disc. Strike 2 today my list of have to hear tunes got smaller by 2. Mind you it is a pretty fucking long list....Yeah a recording of Dinner and a Show and the weird ass eating habits that F_Rock reffered to. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I'm a happy camper. I seem to remember saying something a while back about this year being Christmas all year this year (fuck a lot of years in there). Man the new Monstrous Blues cd is going to blitz, El Sanchez, Highbeam Volume.1, Hee Haw...shit that is just the Highbeam Stuff...Hey F_Rock have you heard the VOLUME disc yet?
