Yeah, I saw these guys in San Francisco last week. He did put on a really
good show, by the sounds of it, pretty much the same than Portland.
Although, I didn't wear anything striking enough for a dedication, not even
my ponyhair shoes... :o)
I must admit that I haven't really been a big Kid Koala fan, but I was
really impressed with that show, the guy is certainly entertaining...
