MOTHER AND FATHER - Tour Diary Part One

Well here are a couple of 'sporty' pics taken from our recent expedition from Canberra! The previous nights we had played to an empty room in Newcastle... But the shows gathered momentum in Sydney and spilled over into Canberra!

Parading and Bed Wettin Bad Boys made for a killer show at World Bar on the Friday and everyone got juiced up on the "tea pots". Then ?? put on an amazing show for us at The Supper Club and we had Whores and Betty Airs on the bill along side the Parading lads... But the night was hijacked by the totally awesome Street Chant... and we got a cover of school dedicated to us... well.. apparently

But Phoenix bar at Canberra... Yikes. What a hell of a good time... Again, Parading playing an amazing set, the locals Killing Birds where great... two piece full blown distortion at its best! The Straight Arrows then left everyone speechless and dancing!!!

then it was party! and party is RIGHT!!!

LOOK OUT BRISBANE! CANT WAIT FOR PART II
