Thoughts
This gig was the Monday after the Abortion Referendum. Lots of positive vibes about same.
When I saw Amanda in the lobby before the show, I was surprised at her height. She looks taller on the stage.
I had to get up to pee just after Death Thing and missed the start of the Half Jack/Zombie mashup.
I was sitting behind the guestlist row – Neil Gaiman and Maykay from Flapes were directly in front of me! I blurted out “Hi Maykay!” when I saw her. Thankfully I resisted reaching out to touch Neil’s hair, that would have been awkward.
I was working the following day – rushed to get the midnight Aircoach after the show in a panic. Tried to sleep on the bus but it was too warm. Everyone else was asleep though…very frustrating!
