it ought to be presumptuous, on meeting ex-perth vegetarians at a bar in Northcote who go to roller derby, to say, oh! you must know Sarah Jane & Esther! except that on two separate occasions I was right, and they did know Sarah Jane & Esther. Actually I think the other time it was a bar in the city, but point stands. Sarah Jane is now my person who already knows everyone I ever meet.

Said bar in Northcote was the Wesley Anne, and we saw the Rosie Burgess Trio, who were absolutely brilliant. My new favourite song is "And the people go to war..." which i don't even think they played on the night, but I bought both the cds they were flogging.

And then we went to roller skating karaoke, which seems unnecessarily dangerous.

except that i hear you have not been to a rosie gig, so keep oct 15 free.
also, ssrd are bouting the next day, and their venue is way more comfortable than reservoir, so you should totes come to that too.

Roller skating karaoke! Please tell me they had Starlight Express songs as an option. Would I like the Rosie Burgess Trio?

No starlight express. you're absolutely right, there's a massive joke they missed there!
probably, yes. Kinda Audreys-Zulya-Holly Throsby. Steph & Danni described them as "kinda folk rock ish"; i suspect they were looking for the phrase "country, but the audrey's-country, not troy cassar-daly-country". you should come to the gig and find out!

Drove past the Wesley Anne a few days ago and thought fondly of evenings we used to spend there playing Scrabble. See, small world.
