” … Friday May 3 2013 marks 30 years to the day since Nick Cave and The Birthday Party played their first New Zealand show at Mainstreet nightclub on Auckland’s Queen St. Photographer Jonathan Ganley provides the images and the story from the audience, while Simon Grigg of Propeller Records and tour promoter Doug Hood give some background and recollections of this legendary but shambolic performance, and the subsequent chaotic North Island tour …”

Hands up who wants to die!
Evil heat is running through me
Flame on! Flame on!

brilliant.
He’s a god, he’s a man,
he’s a ghost, he’s a guru
You’re one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by
his red right hand
my body is a monster driven insane
my heart is a fish toasted by flames
I kiss the hem of her skirt
my life is a box full of dirt
I murder her dress till it hurts
I murder her dress and she loves it
if there is one thing I desire in the world
is to make love to my
zoo music girl
Hands up who wants to die!
Evil heat is running through me
Flame on! Flame on!
