Personal Best Records: Clowns

Staff Writer

More Clowns Clowns

Answered by: James Ahern

Best record you stole from your folks’ collection? It’d have to be either Master Of Reality — Black Sabbath or Rust Never Sleeps — Neil Young for sure. 

First record you bought? The Black Album — Metallica, which was closely followed by Master Of Puppets — Metallica

Record you put on when you’re really miserable? The Blue Album — Weezer.

Record you put on when you bring someone home? Danzig 4 — Danzig

Most surprising record in your collection? It’s Just Not Cricket — The 12th Man (actually that’s not really that surprising if you know me well).

Last thing you bought/downloaded? The Psychedelic Sounds Of The 13th Floor Elevators from Tym Guitars in Brisbane.

When and where are your next gigs? Currently wrapping up a killer tour with our buds Summer Blood in lovely Western Australia at Prince Of Wales in Bunbury, 3 Jul; Rosemount Hotel, 4 Jul; Mojo’s Bar, 5 Jul. Bunbury show is free entry and tickets selling very fast for Perth and Fremantle. Grab one through Oztix today or take your chances and grab one on the door on the night of the show.
