Cake - Enmore Theatre 01/04/2005

Easily flustered by traffic on the way in, all cares and woes were lost once Cake took the stage. That unmistakable guitar filter that they use filled my brain and the rest of the night I watched in more than moderate awe.

Thankfully, the show went a lot longer than any of their albums, each of which had songs performed at this particular event. The crowd were not particularly menacing; Cake fans seem on the whole to be a decent bunch. Naturally there were a few exceptions. Some recent failures from Australian Idol were in the seated area; standing to either be annoying or be noticed. "Sit down, dickhead!" someone screamed - but to no avail. Elsewhere in the crowd some goofball proclaimed "Triple M Rocks!" and was instantly and correctly rebuked with a surly look and a "no they don't" from a nearby Dan.

Queens of the Stone Age - Enmore Theatre - 09/02/04

Josh Homme is – seriously, now! – the most rockinest man in rock and the most sexinest in sex!

He walked on stage wearing jeans and a black muscle shirt with a cigarette dangling from his lips. After approaching the microphone he tossed the cigarette over his shoulder as if its presence suddenly bothered him - almost as if he wasn't the one who lit it and put it in his mouth in the first place. He is virility personified. I am but a wilted sunflower.

Henry Rollins (spoken word) (Enmore Theatre, 24 April 2003)5

I've never seen Henry Rollins before. Except in the film clips for "liar" and ...that other one. I don't own any of his albums. Except Come in and Burn. I mention this only to establish that I'm not entirely familiar with this man.

Right from the get-go he was delivering hyperbolic rhetoric and comedic diatribe all over the hall and never seemed to lose any energy either through heat or otherwise. He spoke onwards and upwards for nigh upon 2.5 hours, making a theatre of buttocks numb and brains swirl with different ideas and opinions. And for this 2 and a .5 hours we were taken down some strange memory lanes; upon the weird tangent bus to a town known to many as OddMetaphoreville.

Fear Not The Monkey (Live Reviews from the Brass Monkey and the Enmore)

Merge + Mick Greening @ the Brass Monkey, Cronulla (13/4/02) I'm never sure about whether or not to label a gig "Good" or "OK" or "Bad" or whatever. Normally there are more factors involved than purely the band in rating a gig. For example: the Brass Monkey.

Imagine sitting in a shoebox, packed with leering and drunk "Shire-folk," waiting 2 hours for pizza, and then getting shafted by a licensed bandit calling himself a bartender. It's combinations of things as these that fill the evening with instant regret and a sense of foreboding.
