Live at the John Curtin, 23 November 2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Great to meet Rob Craw from the mighty HUXTON CREEPERS<\/a> who gave his blessing for GreatGigs<\/a> to shoot their Gala show at the Curtin in full last night. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Those in the know realise Creepers gigs are few and far between so this was always going to be a special occasion for the band and the fans alike… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This evening saw the band revisit their seminal debut album ’12 Days to Paris’ in full, some tracks being played live for the very first time <3… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The lineup was augmented by the presence of Andrew Duffield<\/a> of the Models on a handful of tracks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The encore, which followed the album proper consisted of other Creepers classics and some unbelievable covers…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Support for the evening was provided by the sensational Porpoise Spit<\/a>, a band consisting of a couple of Craw familial members, Rob’s daughter and niece. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Such a brilliant evening and a real treat to know that this rare reunion is now captured for posterity in 4K! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Huge thanks to great mate David DeGrandi<\/a> for the tickets to this amazing sold out show and to Rob Craw who gave his blessing for Great Gigs to document the show and then share it…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
