[Heidi Shenk]

Wow!! Sounds like it was one hell of a show!!  I'm going to a different 
concert tonight and after hearing bout you lucky people in Oz i'm starting 
to think that i'll be highly disappointed tonight compared to if I was in Oz 
at the Oils show instead...i can only dream!!! :)

>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

>Pete didn't call for requests and he diddn't need to! Then they came out

>Ned Kelly every day. They really pumped these songs out. They were

>workers would be better off waiting until they are rested than having

>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 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.
