It's only ever busy after the bands have played.

Which is a shame.

But hey, it means you can watch the bands in comfort, get some drinks quickly and easily, then fuck off when all the drunken eejits turn up after midnight! :up:

What a strange and, ultimately, disappointing night.

Copy Haho were pretty good. The new songs sound especially terrific. The guitar work in You Are A Coalmine is excellent! But I missed the keys in Bookshelf. The song loses a bit of charm without the Korg.

Right Hand Left. Hrm. I have really enjoyed these guys in the past. I don't think the sound was very good for them. I didn't get much out of their set last night.

Frightened Rabbit. Absolutely terrible. I was a bit of a fan-boy before last night and considered them to be one of the finest live bands I've ever seen, but last night was awful. Why the fuck did they get a fourth member on board? He is 110% unnecessary. And he looks like he should be in Glassjaw. Again, the sound wasn't very good - which never helps.

I'll put it down to a bad day at the office.

Pretty much sums up my night too.

First time I've seen Haho in ages. Enjoyed it a lot. Best band of the night by far.

RHL - not my thing, really.

Was really looking forward to seeing them finally, but left after about five songs. Disappointing performance and sound.

I agree, the sound wasn't good for Frightened Rabbit. Loved the CD. Big disappointment live.

Was that the first time you've caught them live? They are usually brilliant and really engaging. I blame the fourth member. I was almost upset once they finished because I was looking forward to them so much! :down:

Yes it was. Which one was the new guy? I was looking forward to it as well.

The chap to the far right. Had a disgusting hooded top on for the first half of the gig. He looked out of place and added nothing but harsh noise to the songs. He is not required.

Yep, same. Really really loved the Haho set. Colemine was especially good. The next band sounded like a horrible concoction of The Subways and The Automatic, which pretty much made me want to vom. I really digged the Frightened Rabbit stuff on record, but live it was terrible. The drums were too loud, and the guitar was just "Fuzzzzzzzzzzzzz." Also, the last song lasted about half an hour.

Also - I was cheated out of a fiver at the desk. I went back up straight away as soon as i realised, they told me to come back at the end of gig but everyone had buggered off.
