One of my all time favourite bands, Arab Strap (from Scotland) played their last ever show as part of a secret tour of Tokyo in December 2006. Yes folks, they have now finished. So sad. It was a great night, and you can see pics here. There were a lot of people who had travelled from all over the world for this show, and real tears in the last few songs.

The above movie is actually edited.... the below aren't. It includes mostly clips of the spoken parts of the gig, including the bit where Aiden took off his shoes because “it was the end of the road”. I used my Canon Powershot G3 and was a wee bit tipsy after drinkin' with the band and MissSin and some crazy couple who had flown all the way from my hometown of Brisbane before the show, so the camerawork is well dodgy.

My first foray into Youtube caused only a slight headache. All future attempts will now be a piece of piss (erm, that's Australian for “very easy”).
