There were no technical issues this evening, so we’d anticipated a less random performance than in Berlin. But that wasn’t to be the case.
In a good way. Don’t get me wrong, Berlin (as broken as it was) was great. But this evening was astounding.
After the gig, we had a nice conversation with the man himself. We mentioned seeing him next in Newcastle and he told us that he’d heard that girls don’t wear coats, carry their shoes and piss in the street there. I suspect that Rob (Augustines’ drummer) may have told him that.
I deeply regret the end of the Augustines, and hope that they’ll perform as a band again one day.
Meanwhile, though, I hope that Mr William J. McCarthy has success as a solo performer. And I look forward to pissing in the street with him next month.
A couple of short videos, I’ll put others on Youtube.
