Owen Pallett live at Union Chapel, this show was ten times better than his previous Union Chapel one. I think with the album was more rehearsed, and the fact that we’ve all heard Heartland made this show enjoyable. The highlight was definitely when he played Lewis Takes His Shirt Off. Some skillz on the violin.
The beginning of the show was pretty lulz, apparently there’s a bar! :O Videos ensue…
Who would have thought Borderlands could be so addictive
11 Jan
Haven’t been posting much on the blog but will hopefully get back on track with this bad boy. Right now i’m ploughing through a game called Borderlands which is sort of a first person shootemup mashed in with RPG. It’s very addictive and has got me off going on Mac land for a while (play it on Windows 7 you see!).
But yeah… i have loads of posts to update with, mainly those conclusive 2009 posts and uhm… yeah… should be updating this a bit more when i have the time. For now enjoy this photo of my Katamari t shirt. I’ve ended 365 last year and feel ever so relaxed that i don’t need to shoot something everyday nows. Though my poor camera feels every so neglected 
Thought I’d share some holiday photos from Ghent, knowing that I have venice photos to upload means I need to get all these Ghent ones sorted before moving on! Ghent was an awesome holiday so there’s no need to neglect that bad boy, anyway, here’s the photos:
The Sounds live at Electric Ballroom, lead singer Maja really knows how to get a crowd going. This was a pretty ace show with Matt and Kim supporting and the fact that photographers got to stay in the photopit to enjoy the show ^_^ This show was nice and pumped, was nicer hearing the set after their latest sophomore album, Crossing The Rubicon was out. The highlight was most likely when they brought up a dude on stage to play the cowbell but he was all kinds of horrific in terms of whacking the cowbell in beat, I think he was a bit too excited. Lots of posing, jumping and dancing on stage (lame review i know! but hey, i hate writing with so little time available)
Tickley Feather live at Cafe OTO. Really enjoyed seeing them live, the atmosphere was chillaxing and the music was soothing and quirky. Singer Annie Sachs was lovely throughout the show, giving away free DIY instruments to the crowd, telling us funny anecdotes and evening singing about my socks halfway through a song ^_^. The audience were in giggles during the intervals with Annie’s crazy sense of humour and eeir vocals. Was definitely a great show. More photos..
When Patrick Wolf announced that there would be a special one off gig that would feature a full on string section, we were all expecting a full on no holds barred cage match submission only fight gig where everything goes, and that’s pretty much what happened. With a setlist spanning to several pages (3 on the sound desk guy’s setlist) we were expecting loads of guest appearances and old songs to pop up, afterall, it is a one off.
Muse at o2 arena – 13th November
29 Nov
The 13th show was definitely better than the 12th, even Matt notices that and tells the crowd just that. Things were a lot tighter and the choice of songs were definitely more geared towards the fans and pushing the momentum the right way. Most likely won’t be writing a full on review on this night but it’s still worth noting a few things. Read on and whatnot…
Muse were the first band i saw when I was growing up, back in the days when they were playing at Brixton Academy for two nights. Now they’ve headlined all the major festivals and played at Wembley Stadium, it seems like their growth is limitless (they’re playing Wembley Stadium again, looks like there’s no other venue more suitable for their fanbase in London). Anyway, enough mindless banter… bring on the review and photos for the 12th night.
