Richie Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Laura supported Malcolm Middleton last thursday at the Tunnels and here's my review.Culturedeluxe - Live Review - Laura Marling - Aberdeen Tunnels, 30th October 2008I would have written up Malc but Laura was the brief and so I just simply enjoyed a few drinks during Malcolm's great set.

Old Gold Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 the few areas of the crowd who were chatting in hushed voices suddenly fall silent.Hah, yeah right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Depends where you were - that was the reaction near me a few rows back - I wouldn't expect the barflies to have done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astronick Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 Anyone else think she looked miserable?Agreed. It was slightly confusing that Laura was miserable and Malcolm was pretty cheerful. I guess that is what Aberdeen can or can't do for you! See my photo of Laura for further proof:I enjoyed both sets but it vastly improved once the crowd thinned a bit before Malcolm. There definitely was no magical moment of hush for Laura; I was away near the fire exit about 7 rows back from the front and definitely heard plenty of bar chat as well as some from folks around the bottom of the stairs.Some more photos: Malcolm Middleton & Laura Marling - a set on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
original_andy Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 In fairness she was probably miserable because of those obnoxious cunts at the bar who kept talking.Seeing as others have posted examples of their work which involes this Laura Marling gig...Loudmouth Learmonth - our columnist on the web - Evening Express Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astronick Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I'm with you on that plan of yours Andy. Something must be done - it was pretty bad when it was Moshulu but now that it is spreading to decent venues like the Tunnels... I think people need to be shown there are places where you can go, have a drink, chat with your mates, and not piss off people who are there to see someone who has a PA yet is struggling to compete against your collective loudmouthedness. It's called a pub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
