Australian Hysteria magazine has just gone on sale with one of our photos of USA’s The Casualties. Sadly is was incorrectly attributed to someone else, but we know it was ours. To celebrate, here’s a selection of 23 images from the gig, supported by The Scam and Topnovil. Pretty sure The Scam were off chops for their set!
We didn’t review the gig, but we can attest to quality performances by both Topnovil and The Casualties. Apparently The Casualties had tried two or three times before to get into the country, but had visa issues due to the singer’s Colombian background. I think the less-than-capacity crowd could attest to the band’s eagerness to make up for the trouble.

Hi,
I just wanted to make you aware that for your article about The Casualties, Topnovil and The Scam you have had a case of mistaken identity. Topnovil was the band that you said was quite possibly drunk and played an average show when in fact that was The Scam. You have your tags all wrong- the band you have tagged as The Scam was in fact Topnovil who played an ace show. You have therefore obviously tagged The Scam as Topnovil. I know these guys they work hard for what they do and the last thing they need is someone incorrectly giving them a bad review. Thanks.
Thanks for letting me know. I wouldn’t have thought that a band with a name like Topnovil (reverse of live on pot?) would have been better than a band called The Scam. it seemed to suit them better. Anyway, I’ll be sure to change the text and tags ASAP. Cheers for the heads up.
Cool. I just re read my post seemed rude, so didn’t mean it!
No sweat. Better to have it right than wrongly defame a decent band putting a solid effort in. Probably should have realised the error by reading the singer’s shirt!
