Plenty of palms here in Southern Queensland, obviously named after our Queen :D.

You have a Queen named Palm!?

My wife was hit on the head by a small coconut (seriously) sitting poolside while vacationing in Hawaii as a 16 year old. She said as bad as it hurt, she was more embarrassed by all the attention the scene caused. The only negative side effect seems to be that she thinks I have too many basses.

There you go - getting hit on the head with a coconut causes amnesia (forgetting how awesome basses are) and personality change (aversion to the acquisition of basses).

I don't think that the palms in California are either date or coconut palms. And, my extensive research (watching Gilligan's Island) indicates that coconuts regularly fall and appear to aim for people beneath. Further, being hit on the head with a coconut usually results in either amnesia or personality change.

Hmmm my wife suffers the same affliction! Perhaps there was a coconut accident in her past and the resulting amnesia is the reason she's never mentioned it! ;)

V - the NR looks great but even better than that the band sounds fantastic! You guys were nice and tight in the intro with a killer power chorus and then when your lead singer took the stage (from the audience, very cool!) she really put a great twist on the dark heavy metal sound. Female (hard, acid, heavy metal, whatever you want to call it) rock vocalists are so rare in that genre and by far my favorite icing on that cake. In that clip your band and singer are channeling PJ Harvey, NY Loose and PET (my 3 favorites). Post more clips when you get a chance and a link to any CDs you guys have put out!
Again, awesome sound and great show, wish I could have been there.
