Messagegood memory Andrew. You're exactly right. It sounded like they =
were going to have a bit of a break after the breaking of the dry gigs.
Garrett sang during Hercules:
' My life is a valuable thing
Some things don't fade away
I don't mind
My life is a valuable thing
I like what I'm doing
I won't retire'

Another awesome show,
=20
What else can I say? Its nearly 4.00am and the brains not workin to =
well......
Pretty much a total different setlist to lastnight except for a =
couple of the better known radio hits, some of the notable inclusions =
were river runs red, warakurna, one country. Steve got a setlist so I'm =
sure he'll let you all know.=20
The five of them were arm in arm at the very end of the show and =
they took a bow and Andrew said that he'd never ever seen them do that, =
so it adds to the mystery as to whether retirement looms......I'm still =
to be convinced. After the show some anonymous chick told me that she =
heard Peter say something to the effect of "we'll have a break but we =
never retire" when questioned if this gig was to be their last. It was a =
pretty inconclusive comment that unsuprisingly didn't give away too much =
so make of it what you will.
=20
Diesel put on another great performance, and on the 2nd last or last =
song of his set, we heard clanging on the water tank on Rob's kit up the =
back. Diesel himself turned round to see what was goin on, and who's =
head did we see poking out of it??? Rob must have crept into it with =
pretty good stealth as we had no idea till he revealed himself. He came =
out of it and on to the stage, he really seemed to be enjoying Diesel's =
music. He hung around till diesel finished and they walked off stage arm =
in arm. It was all pretty amusing and entertaining to see that side of =
Rob.

Mark.
