Fishbone Soldiers, what a night we had at Billboards The Venue in Melbourne, Australia on the 11th April 2007.
The highly anticipated return of Fishbone to the city of Melbourne. Not since Living Colour hit our shores early last year have I been so pumped to see a band play.
Doors opened at 8:30 on the dot and the queue out the front made their way into the basement of darkness that was soon to be lit alight with the flair of The Bone. I hit the venue with the lovely CF, who likes a little of Fishbone thanks to me.
But first the Resignators hit the stage for a 45 minute set that included a bit of brass focused punk rock. The six band members pumped hard and I found them to be pretty good but the sound quality wasn't the greatest and that may have let them down. I wasn't fussed as I wasn't there to see them (sorry guys, I mean no offence)
Around 10pm I made my way up front to get as close to my rock gods as possible...
