Eskimo Joe 6/5/06 Amplifier, Perth
Eskimo Joe played at Amplifier last night, and they were f**kin awesome. They were rocking out the old tunes, belting out some brand new ones as well and generally giving the paying crowd a brilliant time. The opening acts, Faith in Plastics, and Red Jezebel were great value as well entertaining the growing crowd before the main act took the stage.
From memory, they debuted three (?) new songs: Black Fingernails, Red Wine, Forever Young (not a Youthgroup cover!), and another one, which they opened the set with (I didn't catch the name). Other songs played were (in no particular order): Liar, I'm So Tired, From the Sea, Planet Earth, Wake up, Come Down, Life is Better With You, Aint No Sunshine, This Room, Older Than You and Smoke. Let me know if I've missed one!
It was really good to see the lads back out on stage after an 8 month absence. Any fears I had for the new album are probably going to be unfounded - as the new material sounded great. Just like "A Song is a City" represented an evolution from "Girl", the "Black Fingernails, Red Wine" album seems like it will be another step in the evolution of sound from the Freo lads.
