about

Part of being a Brisbane band, is to play those sometimes difficult Sunday beer garden gigs or Gold coast surf clubs...its always good to have a blues groove in your back pocket. Coogie, Donnie Moondoggie , Little Fi, were all playing awesome blues around the Avengers back in the day. This and the tight nexus between blues and psyche plus the fact of grinding it out in 90s Qld was just that, a grind, and it inspired this blues track.

we were all so tired, so wired, there for a while...grinding the Kombi up and down the highway

lyrics

My eyes are falling... hit the ground
I’m so tired I really don’t care if they’re never found


My mind has left... I’m all alone
I’m so wired I really don’t care if it don’t come home
