you am i

you am i @ the forum, melbourne - 7/7/06

an awesome venue shrouded in home grown and international music history; great music: a perfect mix of new numbers and old favourites; a dedicated crowd determined to have a good time; and a band at the height of their powers, when everything is possible and wonderful. these were the ingredients that made up the fantastic live music phenomenon at the forum that night.

we were second row from the barrier. there was a swooning chick next to me who screamed all night and whispered 'god he's beautiful' next to my ear. bucko was behind me, getting pumped up by one of his favourite bands. the moshing was controlled until Jewels and Bullets, then the front ten rows just went nuts. a few people surfed the crowd. i lost myself. my infatuated neighbour proudly announced that she had just came. it was like that.

afterwards, trudging in the rain to the car, we were decided. we would quit our jobs and become roadies next year.
