nullmouse Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 'Woo' and (if I may be so bold as to add) 'yay'.Had a fun night, loved Le Reno Amps, first time I've actually managed to see them live and now I'm kicking myself for not doing so sooner. I always find lyrics go over my head at gigs, too much else happening to focus on what's being sung - Chris TT last week and Le Reno Amps last night are two rare examples for me of when the song writing really stood out and pushed the lyrics to the front.Thee Execution Of... I slipped between liking a lot, and being fairly ambivalent to. I wish I'd been able to make out more of how the vocals were supposed to sound, but the female vocalist was either having bad sound problems or just randomly changes volume at will. Maybe I was a tad not-in-the-mood for them, as I'd really come down for the Amps and Real Shocks.So yar, first time I'd seen the Real Shocks (or even heard them) and in my half-tired state (it was well past my bedtime) they kicked me awake again. Sweet, relentless glam rock'n'roll with a nice bubblegum kick. I wasn't too sure if the sound was muffled, as I was up on the balcony, but never the less I thought it was great.Some nifty DJ-foo, too! So I had a fun night. Ta Planet Boo!

chilli Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Le Reno Ampswere by far the best thing we saw shooting about Go North, a breath of fresh air, cut with humour, sarcasm & a hint of class............. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick boo Posted June 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 thankyouse allThanks everyone who turned up and made it such a luvverly nite. Unfortunately we were one band down - Kirby had to pull after the soundcheck as Lynne was really ill, so apologies to anyone who turned up to see them.As for Thee Execution Of's sound, Phoebe's vocals were a little all over the place - this was mainly due to a wee monitor problem apparently. To hear the full effect of their sooper-dooper sound I suggest you look out for their debut single which will be out on Planet Boo soon.Thanks to all the folks at Drakes for making it such a home from home for Planet Boo too! Mwah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
