Trust me... I'm a good liar
What i love most about gigs is attending the smaller intimate shows that bands usually organise before playing a bigger show at a later date, in this case it was Camera Obscura playing at Lexington before they play Shepherds Bush Empire and other similar sized venues.
Yup I did a fist pump finding out that Emmy the Great is playing at Queen Festival Hall, Southbank. Tickets are on sale today for Southbank members (funny that, I just “coincidently” bought a year membership to Southbank (lies)) and to general public tomorrow via this link.
Not much gigging this month, today however I was able to spend the second holiday relaxing some more and then checking out the Acorn play live at Brixton Windmill, it was quite an intimate show with the band admitting that they were more nervous playing in front of us than a big crowd at say Wembley Arena.
Ah man that was an epic gig, shame I had a burning desire to strangle most of the fans at the gig. Patrick Wolf is by far the most photogenic and charismatic person I’ve seen this year.
I actually had no idea what to expect when I went over to Rough Trade East during my lunch break to see 3 artists do a free performance at Rough Trade East, but at the end I was glad I went.
I managed to catch Peter, Bjorn and John live at Scala tonight, it was an evening filled with scary monitors, crazy dancing and a nice dose of music from Sweden.
It wasn’t quite a long time that I told everyone that it was impossible to win tickets to Howling Bells playing at Punk, Soho for NME radio. Fortunately I caved in and won the competition via the radio so yay, one more Howling Bells gig to enjoy!
