MILLENCOLIN
Wickim Sports Club, Newcastle, NSW
8th February 2000
by Marisa :o)

Firstly, before we went and saw Millencolin play we went to their signing at Soundworld. I must say that they are a nice bunch of guys. Especially Erik. :o) there weren't that many people there, so we were extremely happy about that. I got a copy of their latest CD signed and My friend gave Erik a rose....hehe you should have seen the look on his face, he was loving it!!

After we hung around there for a while talking and what not we made our way to the venue. Ok, so we got there and it was an over crowded over heated bowling club. Gotta love a heap of sweaty people rubbing up against you. We got there half way through some band that I didn't know, but after them 98 reasons why played and they were excellent. A few feet, literally, went through the roof, and that was pretty funny.

Finally, Millencolin took the stage. We were trying to get as close to Erik as possible, but since he was in the middle of the stage we could only get so close without getting smashed more than what we already were. They went off. Some guy climbed into the roof and everyone thought he was heaps cool until he fell through and stuffed everything up. The security guards just stood there and watched..nice to know they are good help. :-S Millencolin had to stop playing for a bit because of some wires or something stupid F*U*K, after about 5 mins they started playing again. They played all my favourites, one of them being Random I am…Some of us were a bit upset because they didn't play Monkey Biz hehe, but I guess they can't play everything. It was an excellent night. The only down side was the venue. Millencolin should play out here more often. Bad luck to all the guys who didn't get to see them play. They went off.
