Whether you know every word to every song or you're still trying to figure out if it's double G or double S at the end, Skegss have been more or less inescapable in the last 18 months and change. Their cult fanbase has poured over into the mainstream, filling out venues across the country and scoring high rotation on triple j. Not bad for three country kids, two of which that grew up not far from the most easterly point in Australia. In the middle of a sold-out run of Metro Theatre headliners in Sydney, the band give us a quick guided tour through their unexpected empire.

Across over ten years of going to shows, I've met countless fascinating people that are joined together by the fact I love their music. This is a medium in which I look to find out the bigger picture, the extended story and the journey that brought them to where they are. No genre or topic is off limits. I'm David James Young - and all my friends are in bar bands.
