Let’s Eat Grandma
I saw these girls at the Swn festival the week before this gig. They blew me away in Cardiff so I jumped at the chance of seeing them again closer […]

People on Vacation (with Lacey)
I first saw People on Vacation at Hit The Deck 2014. Their marriage of comedy and pop-punk/Americana won me over straight away. Ironically, Lacey, their Notts-based support band, also played Hit The […]
The Levellers
Slightly put off by a mardy PR dickhead who berated me via Twitter for having a negative opinion on ska music that was performed by support band The Selector, I managed […]

Low
One of the best gigs of 2013. Low’s slow-core, sleepy alt.rock created such a unique atmosphere in which a respectful warmth greeted the band as the crowd simply listened intensely to […]
Lacey

Benjamin Francis Leftwich
As the folk iron was hot, I checked out this “prodigious talent” people were talking about in the same breath as Ed Sheeran. Date: October 4, 2011 Venue: Glee Club […]
Lightspeed Champion
This topped my Gig of the Year poll for 2008. A superb celebration of one man’s tranformation from a schizoid fuzzball rock oddbod to a heart-melting revolutionary. Simply brilliant. Date: February […]
