THE MIGHTY BOOSH
Sounds Like: Holy hell. You've got so much Pep you almost can't contain it here. I'm going to go out on a limb and say you'd put on one heck of a live show! The way this track ends is absolutely killer. I was expecting something less interesting and i've got to hand it to you - it's great. Also, who doesn't like other people better when their lungs are breathing?... rigormortis is so restrictive on playdates.
NICOLE CHEEK, TRIPLE J
Local kids Mad Shapes opened up proceedings - this is the first time that I've seen the party rockers, whose subject matter ranges from staying up late to not going to bed - since they lost their drummer, but the drum machine gelled incredibly well, if only to be shown up by the arrival of Antiskeptic's thunderous stickman Nick Coppin for their final number. Mad Shapes killed it, serving up a dose of fun that brought the enthusiastic crowd to the front and got them moving, especially during a cover of White Wedding and a hilarious rendition of Antiskeptic's own Nothing To Say.
