Magnolia Electric Co.The Bitter Tears
Bush Hall, 2 September 2009
I've seen some weird-ass support acts in my time but The Bitter Tears really take the crown. Their performance can be summed up by the response from a guy in the crowd when the singer pleadingly asked us, "What are you all feeling out there?" to which came the loud reply "FEAR!" Yep, The Bitter Tears were kinda scary, not in a Marilyn-Manson-I-love-the-Devil kind of way, but because they looked and sounded like they had just escaped from a lunatic asylum. I kid you not.
