Who would’ve ever thought it’d come to this? A soldout Metro show on a rainy Sydney night with myself and Horrorshow calm as buildings. What to say? Horrorshow smashed the living shit outta this gig – I’d go as far as to say a career highlight – the crowd was young and hungry for them. It was a sight to behold. I sat side of stage while the One Dayers had kittens and Sydney celebrated another little notch in its development. Well done lads, I’m brimming with pride.
Our lighting guy, who I’d liaised with for months about tonight – got arrested 5 minutes before we went on stage. So much for the lighting show! We set a new Elefant Traks record for merch tonight – this is a blur. Our show was fantastic and I’m still trippin’ that we soldout. Onto the afterparty where we see this little poster on the wall… y’all guess where this character is from?

We did the drive up the Northern Beaches and it was anyone’s guess how tonight would go. People turned up and turned out, bigtime! Just before we went on stage the venue soundman celebrated his birthday by reciting a poem on stage. It turned out to be a homophobic rant that linked pedophilia to drug taking homosexuals. Wtf? The Polo Club boys walked backstage looking like they’d seen a ghost.

Another rainy night (3 in a row) but tonight was like firecrackers. It’s my old hometown and it feels like a million dollars when we have a special gig there. I meet a young fella who I coached when he was 10 (I used to coach under 10s and 12s cricket), it doesn’t need mentioning the fact that we won both years. Did I just let that slip? Cricket and hip hop have never come together like tonight. Awesome gig.
Elgusto and Polo Club head out to an after party while me and manager Mondo have an after party of sorts. We fold and count the merch at the hotel. Baby I’m craaazy..
