performed at The Playroom, Brisbane

Oz Music Project ‘ s Delilah Dede caught their performance at The Playroom, Brisbane in March 2000 on a bill with Magic Dirt and Pretty Violet Stain . Dede observed, “it’s hard not to like Toogood, with his Bobby Gillespie rock-star looks (without the pretensions), and the passion and blistering ferocity of Trent Reznor . The boy’s got charisma: he’s got stage presence, and he was bounding all over the stage: he has energy.” She felt, “their sound was hard and bangin’, pulled in with anthemic overflow, a touch of funk and electronica, and eloquent, gutsy lyrics. Bold and raw, yet pure poetry.”
