The weirdest gig

"The weirdest gig experience I’ve ever had:

We played the ChillOut Festival, which is a gay and lesbian festival held out in Daylesford [Australia]. It was quite an interesting gig because there were drag queens on before and after us, and people sort of knew who we were but not really. But it was pouring with rain so everyone had to stand metres back and watch us, so if you were walking past our gig it looked like absolutely no one was there. But they were all just back in under cover. It was just one of those really awkward performances."

And now, the "worst gig"...

"Can you remember the worst gig you’ve ever done?

It was part of the tour I did in Australia where we were supporting a band [and] we played in Wollongong. There was no one there, not a soul. Only the other support band were there, and we didn’t gel with them all that well. They were sitting there with this really patronising look on their face, and were doing the old ‘slow clap’. It was just such a gutting feeling playing to a totally empty room - a bit hard on the ego."

Probably, the Little Red's gig that took place at The Uni Bar of Wollongong on October 6, 2010, as part of their 'Midnight Remember' Album Tour. The other support band was Sparkadia.
