The four-piece (joined on lead guitar by Doug Gillard of Guided By Voices) stomped through a fan’s dream selection of tracks from their extensive catalogue, and if legendary frontman Matthew Caws was nervous, he hid it well behind his genuine enthusiasm for being back in Australia.”Good evening friends!” he greeted the crowd, before the band tore into energy packed pop-rock anthem “Clear Eye Clouded Mind”. So help us celebrate the end of a near decade-long drought of Nada Surf music Down Under by rocking out to a blistering, high energy set from the timeless New York’s legends!
