Brief write up.

Well Ginger was only on for about 30 minutes . . . Followed by ~~Hanoi Rocks~~ Bonzai Sucks.

Cracking set, with Ginger in top form . . . alot of chatting and crowd interaction which was really cool.

Most songs off of the last " . . . Must be destroyed" album, but others thrown in.

The highlight was finally getting the opportunity to speak to the man (he must be about 6'4" !!!).
We had a quick chat about music, future work and (obviously) Tattoos.

Got some photos, and Chris got his Siggy . . . .

Sammy got a kiss on the cheek (which made her night) and I got to shake the hand of one of my (living) Musical Heros.

A really nice guy, polite and intelligent.

Ginger - You Rock !

(piccy's to follow)

Big thanks to Marcos (work colleague) for convincing us to go chat to the guy.
