Anyone else there last night?

Awesome gig! Never seen a bad gig by these guys, they are like aural prozac!

I actually randomly met one of them later in the night. Never heard of them and didn't see the gig but apparently they're signed to SonyBMG? Nice guy from what I could make out through his thick northern accent

Got any links for them?

Was there many at the gig?

they are 3 fellas formerly of the beta band. the album is fantastic. was at the gig, seen em 4 times in the last few months, always been brilliant. they played crawdaddy a few months ago and the place was absolutely jam packed, wasnt as many at the gig on saturday but still a decent crowd

beta band? are they not in their late thirties now??

the guy i was talking to was around 20... he may have been having me on but i don't think so

ShriekingSheet · 22-10-2007 1:42pm

yes... it would seem i was taken for a muppet

eth0_ · 22-10-2007 1:45pm

hah yeah Gordon Robin and John are all 34/35. And they're Scottish so that guy was definitely having you on

They are great live, you should check them out next time they are back here (in the spring, probably).

they have 2 session players in the band as well so maybe u were talkin to one of them?? altho they dont look 20 either

Yeah and none of their tour staff look that young either.
Their manager is from the North but she isn't in her 20's.

Slightly off topic, but is there any time curfew for gis in crawdaddy, I'm thinking of going to les savy fav on Saturday but need to get bus home after it, don't want to have to leave during gig

Yeah they're always over before 11pm as there is often a club on afterwards.
