    Just back from this gig in vicar street, absolutlely amazing stuff. There was so much energy there from the band and the crowd. Played all the big songs and had a great singalong with them. It really looked like they were having lots of fun up there! Though it was better than their TBMC gig last august. Can't wait to see them when they come back!

    P.S. Fantastic support with GiveAManAKick. They get better each time I see them!

    GAMAK were totally unsuitable as a support act for PUSA.

    Deadly gig, but I don't think it was as good as the TBMC gig.

    Peaches was like half way through. there was We're not going to make it, mach 5, and lots of other stuff I cant remember. Great gig. Id say it was on par with TBMC gig and possibly slightly better as vicar st wasnt an oven this time around.

    Rumour I heard was the band was late arriving because their boat was delayed hence the late start.

    This was a pretty nice gig. The material from Love Everybody sounded alot better than on the record. Highlights for me were probably Froggie and Back Porch. First time in ages I've seen crowdsurfing in a small venue like that. Giveamanakick were really good too.

    I was going to go to this, but realised seeing them in TBMC last time was good enough tbh.

    Did they play Volcano?

    After seeing them in TBMC I had to go see them this time around as that first gig was rocktastic, this gig was just as good and if they came around again next year I'd defo be at that one too
