For a long time I'd forgotten exactly when and where this gig was. All I had recorded was "Oxide" which isn't helpful as that is the name of a nightclub which moved quite a bit in Melbourne. I think I've settled on it being in Prahran at the time, on Commercial Road. The date I rediscovered by some newspaper clippings I'd squirrelled away in a book, only recently found.
I'd been a fan of Suiciety for a short while, having recently bought their TCP single, and Cell EP.
My sister took me along to this gig, my first at a licensed venue. She fed me beer and I promptly got drunk, having not consumed alcohol at all before.
I don't remember there being many people there. I stood right at the front and sang along, and was likely laughed at by the rest of the crowd.
I had a great time. I never saw Suiciety again.
Unfortunately Suiciety broke up shortly after releasing Cell, this which saddened me no end at the time. They're back now though, check them out on Bandcamp. I haven't managed to catch them live again yet... one day.
