    Yeah, I saw these guys in San Francisco last week. He did put on a really
    good show, by the sounds of it, pretty much the same than Portland.
    Although, I didn't wear anything striking enough for a dedication, not even
    my ponyhair shoes... :o)

    I must admit that I haven't really been a big Kid Koala fan, but I was
    really impressed with that show, the guy is certainly entertaining...

    /P
