You Am I - Live In Cairns

Saturday night was like time travelling back to the 1990's with You Am I hitting the stage live in Cairns

Supported by the awesome local Eddie Skiba playing abunch of new songs from his new album which is soon to be released. Skiba and his group of very tight musicians rocked the crowd into readiness for the main act of Tim Rogers and his fellow bandmates.

This show celebrating the 30th anniversary of You Am I's second album Hi Fi Way released way back then in 1995 brought a distinct crowd of 40 and 50 somethings and their offspring.

On the third night of their North Queensland run of which Cairns was the last stop Tim was in fine form both vocally and satirically with his interactions and banter with the crowd.

It was a nostalgic affair which no doubt led people to reminisce where they were what they were doing and who they were doing it with in the mid 90s when this album first sauntered into existence.

The set transitioned from the Hi Fi Way set to a greatest hits set which really hit the spot.

Whilst it is sometimes nice to look back and see what has come before You Am I seem like a band that even after all this time still has a lot more music ready to put out into the universe.
