It was a hot day in Victoria and we were all...soused.

There were some sound issues but we worked through a sizable set, but we're not exactly sure what songs we played. Big Al believes we played the same song over and over. Maybe he's right. Loose Cannon tried to bribe the judges with a bottle of booze. When we didn't win he took it back and proceeded to drink it in front of the stage. It was a great impression of a straight up wino. The highlight of the evening was the jam session. All of the bands were divided up into two groups. We ended up jamming along with Dr. Dog a.k.a. Tim Bradach. COOL! The Judges gave Slipped A Mickey a special mention for "Playing until their fingers bleed" and their song "The Lay of Nina Clifford" was voted most original song.
