Anyone else go?

I thought Nouvelle Vague were superb, band was tight as a gnat’s chuff. The less dark haired girl seemed slightly demented though. Maybe she was actually slightly pissed. Ordinarily I would cringe at the thought of cover versions of many of the songs they do, but for some reason they just work, I think it’s the Gallic cool thing, a band from Britain doing the same thing would likely be awful.

The support act Gabriella Cilmi was certainly a fine singer as well, although most of her stuff was not my kind of thing. The song she said was her single was pretty catchy like, and strangely enough I caught it in passing on a music channel the next afternoon with a full band.

Great night spoiled somewhat by toilet water from above dripping on me at the end, minky as hell, in addition to sticky carpet. First time I’ve been in ages, almost couldn’t move away from the bar by the time I’d been served. Venue is a complete shit-hole.
