OFF: Shlock Rock

[Max Wilcox]

Hi all,

        While we're still discussing "nasty" bands, I thought I'd have to share my
surprise at the quality of the show I saw last night. Last night was the
Misfits concert - and I never thought I'd ever see them in Australia...
        I'm not much of a Misfits fan, but for Shlock Rock, they do it quite well.
One of the most theatrical shows I've seen - smoke, candles, people in
hoods & crimson ghost masks, etc. They were all wearing great costumes - It
realy reminded me of the early Alice Cooper concerts. The only problem with
the show was the mixing, as the vocals could hardly be heard (but that's to
be expected I guess...).
        It's not often that bands like this come to Oz, so it's a breath of fresh
air compared to most of the ones that tour. Even though there are some very
good bands comming very soon - The Orb, Beck, and er...what's their
name?...Hawk-something.....
        Anyway, I apologise for the "all over the place" style of this mail, but I
feel like I'm falling apart after staying up the front of the stage all
night.
