Fan-freaking-tastic. Where else but the Hopetoun do you arrive at
8:30pm to see 2/3 of the headlining band sitting on the front step
eating a kebab?

Trish has been back in Sydney for over a year now and they'd released
an EP (with Jodi's husband Tim Oxley on drums) as The Girls From The
Clouds in 2005. Why wasn't I told?!?!

They played some new stuff from the EP, plus the demo they were
giving out on the door, plus some of the old stuff which sounded
great. When I closed my eyes it felt like first year again :-). I
nabbed a setlist:

Closer
Say
Mabel
Saw you
Princess
Aqua
Mary
Super
Wish
Wibbley
Domino
Kathy
Bye bye
Do
Show
Calm
Bower
----
Sugar
House
Hero
Beyond

Huge set, as you can see. All of it fantastic. They can still sing
and they can still write bloody good pop songs. Great to have them
back!

Supporting were The Boobytraps -- anyone know if there's any relation?
There was a certain rhino-familial resemblence between Jodi and one of
the singers...

Cheers, Robert.
