During the summer my band went on our 1st Australian Tour.
In my spare time I met up with a few friends from interstate and did a days herping.

Also, if you're into Metal, check out Eternal Rest.

First we hit up Vic. After playing a sweet gig a mate of mine who recently went to FNQ with me picked me up and we went back to his.

I met up with a few other members of this forum in the morning and we were off.

We walked a few good spots but no luck for our targets. We did see a snake dart off to some vegetation, I'm 90% sure it was a Copperhead. But that's how it goes.

I flew home the next day.

Next week we were scheduled to play in Sydney, I met up with a guy I've been herping with before earlier in 2012. We had great luck last time finding a Broadie.

I was just after a pair of geckos that are rather common. The resident phyllurus and thick tails. It was embarrassing that I hadn't found them before so this was something I needed to get out of the way.


It was a cold night and we weren't seeing much. We did spot a thickie though (thank god).

It was getting late so I headed back to my old mans, met up with my band the next day and ripped out a set.

We flew home and played our home town the next weekend.
I had some free time so I went to a favourite spot of mine.
My girlfriend and I saw the usual crap but we "spotted" something different too.
