Music for my Mood: Absolutely depleted of all

I have found on occassion that I need to smack the bottom of the pool pretty hard with my face before I realise that there is indeed a ladder to climb up and out.  This song helps in moments such as these.

The Lonely Sea and The Sky at The Troubadour

Apparently this was their stage debut and the last time they played was in someones backyard.  For three ‘stage virgins’ The Lonely Sea and The Sky found their feet pretty damn quick. 

Velociraptor at the troubadour

Someone said “nine”, but I’m pretty sure I counted ten.  Nine guys, one girl or eight guys, one girl make up this loud, aurally complex sound called Velociraptor.  They rocked out so hard that Everett True (The Thin Kids) gallantly relinquished his claim on being the best band in Brisbane and handed over the reins to Velociraptor.

The Thin Kids @ The Troubadour

What can I say? Seriously… They were funny as hell, highly entertaining but scored pretty low towards the chance of ever being swooped up by some talent scout and offered a contract… but then, I’m pretty sure that’s the point!
