Show Notes: Jason and the 400 Unit’s first Australian shows in since 2018 with a setlist heavy on the newer material, as well as 2 songs from the new album coming out in June. A very appreciative crowd and a great show.

Recording Notes: This was my third show in 4 days at the Palais Theatre (it was a big week for me!), and once again like me other 2, this is an excellent recording. I love seeing shows at the Palais Theatre, it’s such a beautiful theatre, and a Melbourne icon (unfortunately now controlled by Live Nation, booooo). Not much else to say, if you like Jason and the 400 Unit, you’ll enjoy listening to this one!
