Decoder Ring, Dappled Cities Fly

Caught the Ring out at the Annandale tonight celebrating 5 years of live music at this cool venue. Had the AD-20 inline and was able to get about 3 metres from the stage, dead centre just before the boys (and girl) came out. They opened up with the classic Welcome Shoppers then played a few new tracks off their forthcoming album "Fractions". The new songs were pretty dancy with some cool drum rolls.

Lots more singing by Lenka on these new tracks, which is very different from the older opinion the boys had about 'front men'. The gig went for an hour including a short encore break and they closed with an oldie dedicated to (one of) their former bassist(s) Geoff Towner who was side stage. Overall, a great gig with a bit of rust in parts. We'll see what show they put on up at Splendour.
