Great show at the paddo guys - very impressed by all of the acts. Toadracer didn't disappoint, Slippery Roger was really intense but definately very very good and a gig that ends with James running into walls and being carried out of the venue is a great gig in my eyes.

hey, i'm glad that you liked the show! thanks for posting to this silly forum thing, too, because it does get lonely around here sometimes.

yep, the slippery roger was pretty rad, i don't know that i've ever seen someone demand attention and actually aquire it, quite as well as he does, ever before, but i've already gushed about the slippery roger on this forum doo-wacky enough, i suppose.

the other bands were both terrific too, it was great to see Bezza and the Bandits play, after so many years, and the fact that bezza herself wasn't there, and the boys had to sing her songs, kind of only made it more entertaining. and of course toadracer were magnificient, but that ought to go without saying, really.

love riva

I have to say james ruined that show,out of control pulling leads out tripping over riva,stuffing up her vocals,A complete arse.U don;t need him,Stay as 3 piece,please,Good 3 piece bands are so rare,Why does everyone have to add someone later.Keep it simple 'ay,Yeah so get rid of james.He don;t add to the live show for sure.Annoys me greatly.
And I enjoy the band immensley.If i eva started a band,one that sounds like yours is perfect,When i first heard you on 4zzz last year,I was like yeah a nice raw sound,Your songs always make me smile.

Well u asked on the front page to tell ya how much u sucked,so we will see how this digests.I'm sure It will results in me getting flamed.But hey I'm being honest atm.I not leaving a crap alias or anything.Maybe my opinion will change later,But thats how i saw it then,.

James' occasional Godzilla-style rampages are part of the reason we love him so much. We need something to distract from our poor musicianship and stolen riffs.

Thank-you Martin for your insightful message. From this day forward my contribution to a Fightin Amish show will be sitting on a stool with an accoustic guitar. If at any point during the gig I look like I am having fun (how un-punk rock is that) please alert me at once. Martin, Once again I would like to thank-you for your comments, I did not realise that I was infringing on Riva's delicate vocal sequences and Adam's conservatorium of music bass scales in the key of c#.
Yours in appearing extremely bored onstage
James

Yeah thats right Martin kick james out.Did you know he's of jewish descent? I can't believe it slipped past me all these times. Thanks for pointing out the eras of our ways. Please tell us next time we suck. I think riva may have some german floating around there. If you notice let me know.

Yours in hatred
