Re: New Quietus Interview : August 2, 2017
From what he says there'll be no new songs in the upcoming gigs which begs the question - why is Melbourne billed as a world premiere? I really don't expect to leave the gig dissapointed but when it's all over and done with I think I'll sue to get my money back. It is after all, about the principle.
