Comment:
“I was there and added the songs to a playlist on my iPod whilst dancing along 🙂
Finished with a Kick Out The Jams Reprise.
More Bad Times also had him pause to explain he was a frog and his ex was a supermodel so the relationship was doomed from the start, but he still wished there were “More Bad Times”.
Ladybug was dedicated to his wife that used to be his fiancée but is now his wife. Between Peaches and We Are Not… they had a pause as they said that would happen when you flip the vinyl over to the other side back in the day as their eponymous debut was released on vinyl.
The gig was great! :D” – Ashley
