Outvanned and Outgunned, plus Swampfest photos

They could have parked anywhere, but oh no, they had to prove that their van was bigger than mine!

Anyway, as promised, here are a few photos from the recent SwampFest show, with thanks to Craig Black who I haven't bothered asking if I can use them. Heh heh...

First up, a lesson in accessorising:
If Ken from the Screaming Orgasms is seeing this, see how many of your old effects pedals you can spot on my board! Yep, early 80's Japanese Boss CE-2 and Ibanez compressor. I treasure them, and abuse them wildly.

Secondly,  a hand-raising moment during the show. Probably someone had just yelled out "who wants cake?" MacDeth and Slapskins McBOOOm are too professional to stop for cake mid-song. They have cake waiting offstage because they're more organised than I am.


Thirdly and final-tastically, here's a shot of MacDeth and McBOOOm performing the National Anthem-a-Tronica intro segment. At this time I was busy wandering around amongst the audience yelling silly crap. You can't quite see McBOOOm's Monotron, but check out the ancient-school Omnichord that MacDeth is fingering!


Thank you for your attention. Now I must go and listen to a Stray Cats album I rediscovered when rearranging my vinyl rekkids recently. Ubangi Stomp drives me Ubangi wild!
