Gigs in February
The second half of February has proved a busy time. But I have also dome some cool shows!
Feb 18 I did a show at Welly for a band called Art Brut! This was a good show and the band were hilarious.
The lead guitarist, Jasper, was in for some stick off the 16yr old crowd when they started to chant his name. The lead singer, a comical guy, interrupted his in between song banter with the following statement: "Leave Jasper alone. He's Busy!"
Along with some comedy jokes and hilarious lyrics I was in stitches for pretty much the entire set. Genius!
On the weekend of Feb 23 I was down in Stamford doing an Orchestral show for MAYC. I have worked with these guys a few times in Colchester and Luton a few months previous. It was a long day as we drove back after the show, but all went well.
On the way home Iain and I gt into a discussion about the fact he had never heard me belch. As you do. The thing is I don't belch. To prove this I downed a bottle of Coke...guess what...nothing...Not even a rumble. Ten minutes later I couldn't stop farting. That 'ul larn him not to ask me about belching!
Feb 27 and I was back working in Hull Uni. This time The Twang were playing. They were very good actually. It was a much better show than I was expecting. They are not really my sort of music. The crew were nice and the show went well. The support however were a bunch of arrogant stuck up heffers! Ah well, you cant win em all. They just need to remember they are the support act!
Feb 28 and I was in Welly. Just a standard Club NME show. The band were quite good. Not much more, but better than most of the acts that play there!
