Nashville Pussy Live @ The Espy, Melbourne, Australia

Nutbush City Limits

I think I inhaled enough second-hand dope smoke tonight, that I will wake up in the morning and the world, no doubt, will be spinning!

You know it is going to be a damn hot night of pure Southern Rock the minute you walk into the hallowed grotty floor of the Espy. You can feel it in your bones even before the band, in this case, Nashville Pussy, have even set foot on the stage.

Never really checked these guys out but after tonight’s showing… geez, they sure can rock it with the best of them.

Photographically speaking, I was re-united with my beloved 25-105mm lens, having picked it up from the repair shop this afternoon. The lens has been out of commission since the Ace Frehley tour of last month, and you can bet your bottom dollar I have missed it so. For a pub gig environment, it is the perfect lens and it was a huge struggle to be without it this past month.

I put it through it’s paces tonight, and it was like being reunited with an old friend.

As stated, the band tore it up big time and had their rabid following loving every single minute of it. The rock was pounding, the whiskey was plentiful and the Espy well and truly got its collective ass kicked to hell and back.
