If you combined the Zombies with Galaxie 500, you'd have The Clientele. In fact, there was some discussion of Galaxie 500's frontman Dean Wareham during their visit.

They're out on the road in support of their recently released album, God Save The Clientele. They talked about making their very first trip to Australia and New Zealand; a cool museum trip they had planned but missed; how it came to be that they will be featured in The Mammoth Book of Best New Manga (vol. 2).

Songs Performed: "We Could Walk Together," "Bookshop Casanova" and "Saturday."
