By the time Evan Dando wandered onto the stage at Adelaide's The Gov last night (22 May) wearing a red Coors hat and clutching a bottle, the house music was still blaring and, oddly, instead of waiting for it to be cut, he asked for it to be turned up.

I took a trip down memory lane last night, compliments of the Lemonheads making a tour stop at Delmar Hall Friday night. It had been quite a long time since I’ve seen this band—the last time I saw them it was the early ’90s and it was a tiny club in Cleveland, and to be quite honest, it felt like not much has changed.
