 Hey, John - you know I took others and you already have the two shots I took of Xero. One of you with the blue and white bass and a close up of Irena. I did, however also do the Cure, Magazine, Elvis Costello, the Vapors, Stray Cats, Jimmy & The Boys, Madness, XTC and the Laughing Clowns and probably more but they've nearly all been lost in the mists of time. I had all the negatives until a few years back when I finally chucked them out (or my partner did?) when we moved house.

They sometimes turn up though when I'm going through old boxes of crap or poster rolls. I've posted most of the good ones on the Brisbane punks facebook or my faceboook page but you know that already. Nice to see you here in 45Worlds though John. I kinda like it, it's a bit of retro trainspotter's paradise and sort of but not quite cool at the same the time.

 Hey. A great show. I was in Xero. Did you end up with any other band fotos apart from the Echo ones?

A fantastic show with a set list that included most of the first three albums even though "Porcupine" was over a year away from proper release. I ambled up straight after work on the day, primarily to get to front of the queue but took my camera in the hope of getting shots of the show. Lo and behold when I arrive the Bunnies are doing a soundcheck for the show (see pic above) so I just started taking pics and tried to look like I was meant to be there. After the soundcheck I had a long chat with all the "Bunnies" out the front of the venue.
Then their car arrived to take them to dinner before the show and just as the "Bunnies" were hopping in (he-he) Mac turned to me and yelled " Hey, do want to come to dinner and show us round town a bit before the show." I was waiting for fiends to turn up, you know the kind, and in a split second made made a very bad decision and decided to wait for my compadres. When they arrived they noticed that I was very pissed off in spite of the arrival some top class contraband. I told them the story of what had happened earlier - they told me I was full of shit. When the Bunnies returned, they saw me at the front of the queue and came over and told me they'd had a good time and then ushered me and my bewildered friends in for free.
An absolutely astounding show followed and I got to sit on the stage and freely take pics all night. What an idiot to miss dinner with the Bunnies but I did manage to snap some shots of the show and soundcheck and found some in a shoebox the other day. So I'll tack some on.
