It's a little old now but glad you enjoyed it.

@@Peter_LiveMusicI just checked thru your videos! Peter, there are some awesome musicians you’ve seen! I’ll look forward to slowly making my way through! Best wishes, from a new subscriber! 🎶🎶🎶🙋‍♀️🇦🇺

@@sunlion9676 There's quite a few now. My tastes are rather eclectic but I'm sure you'll find a few things you'll like. Sound quality varies from video to video, depending on so many different factors. But overall the more recent videos are best as I now have better equipment than when I started out. Thanks for subscribing. Enjoy.

Oh, and the lyrics to "Little Fears, Little Loves" are spot on

Yes, I remember how impressed I was with Liz the first time I saw her live. She was with her band then. You can see a couple of songs from that show here: th-cam.com/video/oaFcvPaDHls/w-d-xo.html But whether she's with a band or solo, she's a great performer. I'm hoping to see her again later in the year when she tours Australia to promote her new album. I'm a little jealous of you getting to one of her gigs with Emily Barker. I'd love to see the two of them together. Emily's not as well know back in her home country. Hoping that changes. Thanks for commenting.

I've had the pleasure of seeing Grace live twice now. She's a terrific performer - wonderful personality with a great sense of humour, but also of course, dealing with very serious subjects. I hope you get to see her sometime soon. I video a few songs for the shows I go to basically for my own enjoyment later and help with my memory as the years go by. But I upload them so people like you, who can't get to live shows, can get a glimpse. I hope I do the performances justice and I hope I bring the musicians more fans. Check out this earlier show, it's probably a better video: th-cam.com/video/7fPAS1FwczA/w-d-xo.html Thanks very much for commenting.

I've thought about seeing Walking Deads for a couple of years now but have never actually made it to one of their shows. Have you seen them and are they good? I've seen Scarecrow People numerous times - a great band. I have mixed feelings about Camelot. Yes, they do great things for smaller bands but I always find the audiences too noisy there. But that's usually the case with any music venue that serves food at tables. It's a catch 22 situation because without the food, the venues couldn't cover costs. I really miss The Great Club where eating and listening was separated. I've nothing against people going out and having fun, but when I go to specifically see a band, I don't want loud conversations happening around me. That's just me.

The grand days of Australian live music. We didn't know how good we had it.

That's good to know. Thanks for the info. I'd love to have been at one of those shows. Suppose I should be thankful that I saw them both separately. Thanks !!

@@Peter_LiveMusic I found an image of both bands' members sitting together but can't post it here. Is there somewhere you'd like me to post it?

@@riccurnow8127 Thanks for the info. I think i've found the photo you're referring to. I've added an 'edit' to my description and put a link there. I really should have done some research myself before hand. Thanks again.

Thanks for popping by and thanks for a great opening to a wonderful gig. Yes, I wasn't too sure about what period(s) of XTC's musical career you might favour. I know Scarecrow People prefer their later material (although they do of course, play the early songs too). I really enjoyed the songs you included. I bought "White Music" and "Go 2" when they were first released. And "Drums and Wires" is still my favourite album of theirs. So it was a very pleasant surprise finding you supporting Start Making Sense. Sadly, I can't make the Marrickville gig, but maybe next time you're in Sydney. Hope it all goes well. And thanks again for the comment.

@@Peter_LiveMusic Yes, clashing Mike Stern at the Factory! Damn it. With the tiny stage at Gaspo, these guys might find themselves on the floor!

@@trioofmisfortune Hoping they have a great gig. With luck they'll be back in Sydney sometime soon and I'll try to catch a longer set from them. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks for your support Lisa. Hope you're enjoying my eclectic music tastes.

They certainly gave it their all. Well worth seeing. Thanks for commenting.

Yes, I'd heard good things about them before going. They didn't disappoint. A fun filled night of great music.

This was a brilliant night. If the Cairns' show is half as good, you'll have a wonderful time. Enjoy.

So did I. Hopefully not for the last time: th-cam.com/video/jQnCdoNxQTc/w-d-xo.html

It was a while ago now, but a great night in a very unique location. Electric Fields were terrific. Too bad about the slight breeze which can be heard on my video. Thanks for commenting.

Yes, a great night and I loved being in the front row. Sadly, the sound wasn't the best from there (it's always a bit of give and take trying to find the 'perfect' position). Richard is one of our very best. Thanks for commenting.

One of his best I've been to. Excellent night.

It was a great show but he was struggling a little bit. He posted on social media afterwards: "After the show, Sydney, show 2982. A combination of brutal schedule, jet lag and insane onstage heat made that one of the hardest shows to get through I can remember. Thank you to the crowd for pulling me through, that was tough. Day off tomorrow, thank fuck." Still, you wouldn't really have noticed (except for the sweat irritating his eyes). He always gives it everything he's got - and then some. Very glad I got to see him up close and in a small venue. Thanks for commenting.

I didn't mention the great sound and lighting. A nice little venue which must hear a lot more classical then contemporary music. Yes, everything came together beautifully. Wonderful show. Did you go to both performances? Perry performed 'Sandra' the second time I saw him, supporting Tim Freedman in Wollongong. You can watch it here if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/KnTrLMexrG8/w-d-xo.html But there are still so many great songs of his which I haven't heard live. I guess I'll be going to his concerts for some time yet. Hope you enjoyed the video. Thanks for commenting.

@Peter_LiveMusic Yes, I went to both shows. Same setlist for both. Edmund gave me his set list after the show which was nice of him to do this. I can send you a copy if you like? We sat at the top row at 4pm next to the desk, and 3rd tier at the front for 7pm. Both seating locations were excellent. No bad seats at that venue

@@ddt677 I was in the same row at 4pm, at the very end near the entrance. I was the guy with the camera 📷🤣. Thanks for the offer of setlist copy. I would have taken you up on it, but thankfully someone added it to Setlist FM yesterday so I've copied it from there. 'See' you at the next one.

@Peter_LiveMusic I was the bloke sitting next to you. I had a brief chat with you. Small world. Take care. 😀

@@ddt677 Yep. I hope my videoing didn't disturb you. I always worry what people beside me think. But I noticed you had your phone out a bit too. Yes, small world and small theatre. 👍

Yes, a terrific performance. Thanks for commenting Lisa.

Yes, a great night. Looking forward to seeing what Tim does next.

Lamento escuchar. Estoy muy feliz de poder verlos por última vez.

Saw him in a record store in Sydney way back in the 70's. Too shy to say anything to him but I was in awe. His songs have always meant so much to me. Thanks for sharing your story.

@@Peter_LiveMusic His album I Am an Island really helped me get over my broken heart of my break up w my first gf...Actually I never got over it...

Still plenty of life left in the band yet. Great series of gigs.

I can't believe that Peter isn't better known in his home country. So looking forward to The Apartment's new album this year (and more live shows). Thanks for commenting.

So many of us didn't think we'd ever get to see these songs being played live again. Yes, my hat goes off to Mark. And of course, the rest of the band too. I'm very pleased I was there and captured these songs to remember it by. Thanks for commenting.

Not sure why you're blaming Lorraine when the problem is most obviously my non-professional recording gear and her position right in front of me on one of the two nights. Her vocals sound better on the night when I was on the opposite side of the stage to her. However, sound quality in any venue is always poorest right down the front (which is why I rarely video from there these days). Unfortunately, the sound quality of my other Deacon Blue concert is also not good, once again being too close to the speakers. Maybe third time lucky.

Normally the vocals are seamless and balanced. I’m not ‘blaming’ anyone - but on this occasion Lorraine’s vocals are too prominent and she’s really not at her best. Perhaps she had some sound issues.
