...then up pops a thread about them - can't wait for the gig review - if they're really as good as they were what 15 years ago then I must see them again

It's coming soon enough. I'd have done it earlier (the gig was on Thursday night), but I've been sidetracked by a lot of things - work, illness, general laziness etc. Tomorrow's my day off though and I'm more or less fit and working again, so watch this space!

All I will say is that whether people like this sort of music or not, the energy and friendliness in that place is something any live music fan should experience at least once. Sometimes it's not about attitude or musical dexterity. It is all about having a good time and forgetting about life for an hour or two. They were simply brilliant once again and a great example of a hard working band who don't conform to the masses and still deliver a night of great music.

What amazed me was how they still performed despite their co-vocalist being absent, not canceling and just pushing on and doing a bloody great show. I haven't had so much fun at a gig for a good 7 or 8 years, so it's safe to say that I enjoyed myself.

I'd say pics coming soon, but the ones I got of the band are actually pretty shitty, so I'm not so sure now
