I later found out that this was Rooftop Nightwatch’s debut show, quite impressive albeit a bit nervous. Rooftop Nightwatch managed to pump out a tight indie-pop sound. The set involved a lot of instrument changes, similar to what you expect from Mt Augustus. I suppose that’s what happens when the bands influences goes as far as some of the band members coming from other local Brisbane bands such as The John Steele Singers, Mt Augustus and Roman History. Once these guys become a bit more comfortable on stage, I am sure they will be one band hard to miss on the Brisbane local scene.

Mt Augustus
I have said it before, I really like Mt Augustus. Their sound is getting better and better regardless of how self-deprecating Cam attempts to be. I am sure they are learning just as much about some of their instruments as I am about their sound. Cam’s vocals still amaze me they have matured beautifully. I really need to get along to some more local gigs. The Brisbane scene is alive and well. The true highlights of the set for me were The Warmest Winter and Club Soda. There was a couple of technical hiccups, but quite good considering the cramped space of the Ric’s downstairs bar.
