Well I don't know if that's necessarily the correct way to interpret it. HP played 2 shows in Sydney on one night. The All Ages show was good, then they went to their hotel room and real stoned. When they returned to the club for the "Bar Show" there was almost no-one there and they used the smoke machine to blot out their appearance as they were stoned and paranoid. As for St.John's, HP have played some absolutely awesome shows here, with the exception of the last time they came when at the ALL AGES show they didn't go over so hot. Some kid in the audience yelled out "GO BACK TO HALIFAX!", not a great homecoming. All the kids continually yelled for SUGARCANE as well which they refused to play so that pissed of some of the people. The Bar show later that night went over much better. Anyways, that's my take on the worst HP show question. Of course maybe I got it all fucked up. Peace, HUB
