Brash!
Electric State
A vintage Electric State performance where a moving structure of uplifting hard driving metal built on a chassis base of nineties alt rock and driven by the spirit of Monty Python busts through the stop sign and you cling on for dear life, enjoying the ride.
New numbers were intermingled with anthems from one, if not the, rock recording of the year “Green Machine”.
Crowd interview walkabouts, an appearance by Janis the megaphone and Rob even brought out the big gun near the end of the set to fire “Green Machine T-shirts into gathering.
