John Butler in the Square

On Thursday night, after a much anticipated countdown to the long Easter weekend, I walking down from work to Federation Square. I met Noodles there, and we were joined by Kelly, just in time for the beginning of the John Butler Trio's free set.

A free concert to promote his new album, John Butler packed out the open section of Fed Square, from people who had been there for hours to get a spot, to the after work crowd popping in before heading off elsewhere.

Starting with Zebra, and then launching into the new album, he was funky and chatty with the audience in between songs. Vika and Linda Bull were on stage for a few songs, with their backing vocals contributing to the new ablbum also. Many songs from the set were recogisable, and he certainly pleased the crowd.
