I am sooooooooooo jealous, I would have sold a kidney to see a show like
that!  I sure hope somebody's recording tonight!!!!!!  So much for
rumors of discord.  Tired, I can believe.  Bitchy, no way.
 
Oh well, if they don't come back to the US yer gonna see me, Bruce, and
Kate on the doorstep one of these days. - Beth

After sitting here wondering where to start, I'll just start at the
beginning.
For those that don't know, Twin Towns is right on the NSW/Qld border and
because of daylight savings time there's an hours difference between the
2 states, so I rocked up in NSW time and was an hour early which was
quite amusing. The venue is good, with stadium seating at the back half
and mosh-pit (hopefully) at the front. One thing about the sound setup,
the big speaker stacks are set forward from the stage so that when your
in the first few rows your actually behind them and can't hear them. So
down the front you can hear the guitar amps really well but vocals are
lost and keyboards inaudible (esp DWBTO). Sneak was the first band, they
played for 30 mins. A pretty standard rock band from Melbourne with
their debut out next week. Diesel put on a great show with the crowd
singing along to his old hits. Great bass sound from where I was
standing (front row facing bass rig) and moog syth used to great effect.
As Matty mentioned, just before the Oils came out, a roadie ripped up
the standard setlist and replaced it with the most amazing one I've ever
seen. I had made a couple of request cards with Wharf Rat, WCI, B&B but
Pete didn't call for requests and he diddn't need to! Then they came out
and launched into Powderworks. Bones was sporting a gaffa tape moustache
and goatie beard which came off by the 3rd song. Jim's looking more like
Ned Kelly every day. They really pumped these songs out. They were
definately looking like they need a break though and I think Euro
workers would be better off waiting until they are rested than having
them burn themselves out over there. Rob came up front for US Forces and
SM, then back for Kosciusko. OK that will have to do now. Traditionally
the second show walks all over the first one so tonight's gonna be a
killer.
Nathan.

WOW!!!
Tonight was amazing. I dunno if theres ever been a gig like this or if
there ever will be again, all i know is that it was my 2nd show ever and
it was awesome!
The setlist were ripped up and replaced just before the band came on and
nathan yell across to me somthing bout that they were gunna  play the
first albums. 
Any way it was a cracker of a setlist they played songs in chronological
(thats a big word this time of night) order of years they came out, i
ended up getting one at the end. They didn't take any requests but i had
a piece of paper ready to throw up there anyway. I had surfin with a
spoon on it and since we were feeling really dehidrated i wrote "could i
please have some water??? (thirsty)" At the bottom. 
I chucked it at petes feet and he picked it up and read it into the mic,
laughed and said somthing about maybe the security guards could get us a
drink. Later i did a drinking motion to pete and he just mouthed "wait".
He never did get me a ! drink but hey i lived. Another highlight was
when he came down off the stage during kosciosko to get up this guy who
was shoving mark. He checked to see if mark was ok and straightened the
guy out then wen he got back up said somthing about respecting otheres.
Only let down was the last encore didn't get played. Maybe due to the
fact the vocals seemed turned right down i dunno.
Anyway heres the set list.
