Our second show and our first interstate one on the tour and actually it's the first time that we've ever put on a show in Sydney. Sydney has been a city which we've struggled to get a show happening in 2011. However things really started to go our way in 2012, a growing cosplay scene, new sponsors plus massive support from our lead catgirl (Rachel) and also from the venue owner (Herbie), we could make it happen.
Sydney was by far our most nerve wracking show, we've had difficulty attracting hype and interest but in the weeks leading up to the show we've had a lot of love and support from our fans to make this an awesome party. I rocked up to find myself actually really enjoying Sydney, the arcades, food and the city were absolutely amazing, plus our venue as well too.
Our Sydney show is one of our most uniquest shows on the venue, taking place in an unconventional venue, it makes for an interesting and unique underground feel that really put an interesting twist on our show and for one great atmosphere for the show. Mixed with an extremely varied Sydney crowd which has an interesting mix of alt, rave, goth, cyber, furry, cosplay and geek cultures.
The show went better than we expected, in particular we noted that the sushi in Sydney went faster than in any other city by far and we had really great fans who really stuck till 4am to party hard, I was suggested to play speedcore near the end and they did dance to it. Favourite highlight was by far Kuma Drop playing his entire set in a pedobear outfit, plus Shyen's Disney was a popular crowd favourite.
We love this show, it's an amazing venue to deal with, nice massive chill out area and is a popular one for the interstate fans as well too. Sydney was a blast and after spending another day discovering the massive city and having a blast, we're excited to be back for SMASH to throw a massive after party for all the Sydney fans!
