@@Primogen18 it was a hot day in Perth, but we still managed to have super time! I think when tickets were released initially, Friday was the first show, so arguably the punters snapped up all the tickets. They then released a second show (the Thursday, the day before) which probably had more casual fans snap up tickets who wanted to go… hence the Friday crowd may have been ‘better’ (more punters) than the Thursday crowd (more casuals) Despite this, the crowd I meant was quiet for this song, probably still learning the new music!!
This right here was the biggest mistake the promoter made, especially because the band was so affected by it. They were like WTF THIS IS OUR FIRST SHOW IN AUS AND THE CROWDS DEAD 9th was a great show but! I think Turpentine is a great song but it seems to have resonated with the North/South American fans alot more than us down here. But that might just be my vibe.
Soaked your clothes in kerosene Cleanse the mind of ketamine Slide your mom on top of me (Wash yourself with turpentine) My arms, I've raised again Today I don't feel bitter I have no path within Don't know if I'll get better My own mind's unclean Can't taste anything What if I'm not like the others? A broken man, a Frankenstein What if my heart won't recover? I'll clean myself with turpentine Working at the factory Stick to the veins of nicotine (Wash yourself with turpentine) I feel like I'll cave in I'm anxious, I am weathered I've lost my way again I know there ain't no treasure My mind breaks with ease Sticks and stones and dreams What if I'm not like the others? A broken man, a Frankenstein What if my heart won't recover? I'll clean myself with turpentine Working at the factory Stick to the veins of nicotine (Wash yourself with turpentine) Sharks smell the blood in the water We're all just lambs to the slaughter It's only all the time this time A generation lost and forgotten Clawing at the lid of the coffin Your God ain't coming back this time Quit your job and have a drink Take a pound of ecstasy Blah, bla-blah, bla-blah, fuck (Wash yourself with turpentine) What if I'm not like the others? A broken man, a Frankenstein What if my heart won't recover? I'll clean myself with turpentine Lift me like the trampoline Stick your dick in Ovaltine Snort a bag of Dramamine Doust yourself in gasoline Throw up in a limousine Jack off to a magazine Wash yourself with turpentine (Goddamnit)
Actually wasn’t the debut. They debuted the song the night before on the 8th. I know. I was there 👍 I bet that pisses off everyone that saw it on the 9th…which is probably why you’re lying about it here.🤘
