Pavement @ Metro City Perth 09-03-2010

Tonight’s set list was eclectic, yet wonderful and perhaps slightly orchestrated around SM’s slightly hoarse voice:

  • Silence Kid
  • Father to A Sister of Thought
  • Stereo
  • Frontwards
  • In The Mouth A Desert
  • Rattled By The Rush
  • Date w/ Ikea
  • Grounded
  • Range Life
  • Unfair
  • We Dance
  • Kennel District
  • Cut Your Hair
  • Stop Breathin’
  • Summer Babe
  • Gold Soundz
  • Two States
  • Fight This Generation (Figh This Generation)
  • Shady Lane
  • Conduit For Sale

Then encore one consisted of:

  • Debris Slide (which included a joke about WA being the mining state and that there might be a lot of debris slides)
  • Give It A Day* (including some excellent banter about AC/DC and how people in Perth are about the lyrics)
  • Perfume-V
  • Fin

Encore Two consisted of:

  • Lions (Linden)
  • Zurich Is Stained
  • No Life Singed Her (which included SM jump into the drum kit, with guitar in hand, leaping of Westie and off stage and Westie taking an amazing catch to keep the guitar from crashing)

The band were in fine form, joking about the AC/DC concert also in town (*SM quipped that Bon Scott is a lyricist, Brian Jones a performer).

Gersey played a solid set and their last song they were joined by Spiral Stairs who played Subiaco Shuffle from The Real Feel.  Apparently most of Gersey are in SS’s touring band and hence the connection.

Another amazing show by the finest band in the world, my second in four days.
