Tonight was a historical night for the Canberra music scene. It was to be the final time, Aussie rock legends Powderfinger, would play in the nations capital. Canberra was one of their stops on their last ever "Sunsets" tour. After more than 20 years of performing, the boys are finally calling it a day and going out with a bang.
I have been a fan of the finger since the early 90's, seeing them perform many times here, and also getting to photograph them at The Big Day Out earlier this year. I was lucky enough to get to document this final gig in Canberra whilst watching on in awe of a band I have listened to for over a decade.
The band were in great form, the song choice fantastic and the crowd in a really great mood - all combining to create one of the best gigs I have ever been to.
Farewell lads! - You have given us some amazing music and will be missed. Just don't spoil it by doing a "Farnham".
More Photos to come.
