Pavement, Crow, Screamfeeder & Magic Dirt @ Max's


What I remember (in 2024)...
Met Butch after work and went out to Petersham for this show, then caught the train back up the Coast.
Magic Dirt played in the front bar in between when the bands played in the main room.  I believe this was their first ever Sydney show.  They were awful.
We were greeted at the door by Pavement's drummer Gary Young, who ripped a page out of a Jaws book as you handed him your ticket.  He would also stop playing mid-song in order to do a handstand on stage.  He also found an umbrella which he gave to an audience member, who was instructed to make sure every one got to hold it.
I was wearing a Crow T-shirt, when Peter Fenton walked past me and said "Cool shirt!".  To which I replied "Cool band!"
