      I like hearing LAV on the stream but thank you for posting actual video to go with these. Always interesting to see how the various bands set up in different spaces of the studios.
      After seeing this one, I think I might have to see them when they come through KC in June.

      Thank you, because it was never bad to begin with, just impossible to get away from.

    • @Locutus
      @Locutus 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      It happens to a lot of people. :)
      I'm from the UK, and lived in Aus and NZ for about 4 years (on/off) and by time I left the countries people thought I was from Aus or NZ, including the locals! Now I've been away for about 2 years, my UK accent has mostly returned but still with a twang. I do find English-women who have lived in Aus for a short period of time, their accents become very indistinguishable from Aussie-women very quickly.
      But I have a friend from England who has been living in Aus for about 10 years, and still sounds from England but you can hear the twang in his voice.
