Well, the tour is over and I have to say a huge thank you to all the Roffs, Seiges, Forrests, Murrays and assorted ring-ins that attended. I had the most wonderful time, and it was so great to catch up with you all, and so gracious of Dan to fly me around the country to get drunk with my family. Especially considering he had to endure the same comments from my family at every single show- "you were ok but we want more Ukeladies!". Every single show.
Annika was the winner, with a total of three shows under her belt, and she looked totally hot at every one of them. The Sydney Basement show had the most luxurious turnout- thanks Lainey, Daniel, Brendan and Kimmi, Shauna and all the Sydney Seige crew for coming along.
The Perth show was pretty special- a long overdue chat with Zac, and our own private and deserted bar to bond in! Lovely that Zac and Liz could meet and chat with my other cousins, Benedict and Janelle.
The highlight of the Adelaide show was meeting Andrew's new lady friend, who was (incredibly) UNAWARE that she was dating His Excellency, The Youth Governor Of South Australia!!! It was a delicious experience to "out" him. Andrew, I do hope you are doing something constructive about the flamingo cruelty crime wave that has gripped the youth of your state.
Dad, Julia and Dom were a very supportive Melbourne contingent, and Dad earned alot of cool points being spotted in the crowd by many of his students, who were so impressed that he was compelled to pose for photos with them, and pretended convincingly that he had heard of Augie March.
The Brisbane show was a corker, marred only by Harry and Jake continuously falling backwards out of the emergency fire exit to the great annoyance of the security staff.
The less I say about Adam's "performance" at the Metro show in Sydney the better, but the hospitality shown to the band by Adam and Monica was exceptional, and greatly appreciated.
On behalf of Dan, Stevie, May and myself, thanks so much everybody! Most supportive family ever!!
