Oils warm-up gig May 23, 2019 (5 years ago) Anita's Theatre Thirroul, New South Wales, Australia
the support band were actually bloody good!! Very entertaining and catchy wall-of-sound type music. But we knew we were in for something special as the lights dimmed and the Oils chant started. I was on a video chat with Chris Hall in Ontario Canada at the time, and we were both losing our shit as were watched Run By Night.... they burst onto the stage, opening with RUN BY NIGHT, and followed by KNIFE'S EDGE, I mean come on , what a killer opening couple of tracks. here's the set list RUN BY NIGHT KNIFE'S EDGE first time live since 1986 SAFETY CHAIN BLUES DON'T WANNA BE THE ONE DUST first time played live since 1981 TIN LEGS AND TIN MINES BULLROARER KING OF THE MOUNTAIN CONCRETE ANTARCTICA dedicated to Bob Hawke FEEDING FRENZY SHORT MEMORY MY COUNTRY LURITJA WAY TARKINE Oils premiered a new song, 1st since 2002 DREAMWORLD DEAD HEART BLUE SKY MINE POWER AND THE PASSION FORGOTTEN YEARS Encore: US FORCES ONLY THE STRONG Encore 2: BED ARE BURNING BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
