Agreed' date=' I enjoyed their set very much at the DataPanik gig.[/color']

Yep, that was good, but i thought they were even better at LT last Thursday lunchtime. They probably won't thank me for saying this, but one song reminded me of Carter USM!....in a good way - thankfully DBD aren't as one dimensional though.

Look out for a preview of Saturday's gig in this week's Big Issue, and a Boy Lacks Patience album review at some point too.

that was fucking amazing!!!

*EASILY* the best gig i have seen in a long time, death by dave were fantastic as always, and chris was on top form... His first set with rainbowprincess on cello was nice and felt quite intimate, and his voice was amazing. That was the first time i had seen him with his band, and they blew me away...absolutley fantastic.

ALSO the stage looked awsome with the baby-grand, and fairylights.

Fantastic night, maybe not the best DBD performance I've seen but they certainly seem to be quicker on the change between songs ;) The opening and closing numbers are still just fantastic, and their audience participation really did turn the attention of the audience to them for the rest of the set (PS apologies for picking on the Honey Monster, it just seemed *right*).

The Boy Lacks Patience was superb. Chris came across as charismatic and fully at ease with the (impressively sized) audience. The cello-augmented first half was wonderful, full credit to Rachel. I was slightly dubious about the idea of the second set it completely converted me, thoroughly enjoyed it too - Balanced really well with the first half. Glad Chris ended on a couple of completely solo numbers, it was only right to do so. Well done his mum for making sure he saved a song or two back.

Looking forward to listening to the album now, looked like it was selling really well on the night.
