To the right, a man bumps his head on the front of the balcony, before sinking onto his bench as he holds it in his hands. Behind me a girl sits, a pained expression on her face. It's clear that a lot of persons here present aren't exactly enjoying Suicide.Unfortunately, these goons were still on stage when we arrived, pumping out a pointless and utterly discordant bunch of soundwaves. Eventually, and to the relief of the crowd, they left. Finally, after a glacial wait, Grinderman finally appeared. They played the whole of their self-titled album, but no Bad Seeds tracks. I found the set to be a bit one-tone, but I did like the new "handlebar moustache and beard" look. It's as though they had walked off the set of The Proposition.
At the end of the gig, Cave taunted us by bringing Suicide back on stage, and performing a couple of tracks with them, before finally wandering off with an apparently disinterested expression on his face. Weird.
