John Butler Trio and The Waifs

Two Western Australian bands - great music for 3,5h! That is kind of the summary of last nights concerts in the Freo Arts Centre.
The Waifs were on stage first and played lots of their old songs, which was really great. Because as I said earlier I prefer their old songs. The lyrics tell stories of (Western) Australia which I prefer over the new more American based stuff.
To be honest I never heard of the John Butler Trio before but probably listened to some of his songs on Ian's ipod. But they are such a great live act! The crowds cheered to the 15min guitar solo followed by the 15min drum solo. They are such great musicians! It was a very nice night!
