lol ok so Ed pretty much said the exact same things word for word tonight as he did last night, talk about being natural on stage. That was a bit disappointing, almost like he's rehersed what he is going to say between songs ... his schtick about Melbourne vs Canberra is funny, there really is no rivalry there, no one has a rivalry with Canberra, no one cares about Canberra, so when he mentioned he wrote Nobody Knows in Canberra he started talking about how he doesn't want to start a fight between the two cities on both nights before anyone even had a chance to react.

At least he played supernatural tonight, but I think that was the only difference in the setlist, he didn't play Sweet Release, but otherwise it was all the same in a slightly different order. His voice wasn't quite as good tonight, he tried for a few notes that he just wasn't getting to.

I think I had more fun listening to the two drop kicks sitting infront of me, they were hilarious. One of them continually called out for "Wings" to be played all night, the other one looked angry all the time at everyone and everything. When Ed explained how he had to change the lyric in Heaven from Daughter to Daughters, they didn't understand it, but then when the song was being played and Ed sang 'Daughters' they both absolutely lost it in a fit of laughter like the penny just dropped. When Lightning Crashes started one goes "fuck! I didn't think he was gonna play it!" they rocked out to it and then never said another word for the entire rest of the gig and sat looking extremely bored. Strange blokes. One looked like a gorilla he was so hairy and the other looked like he didn't have a hair on his body, maybe the other dude stole them all..

Either way, it was an OK night, no where near as good as the first.
