Don't be wearing your heels on those cobbles though, awec. Bell X1....one of those bands that were going to make it big about 10-15 years ago but never really did. Had a lot of hype and were always just on the verge of breaking through. Something like Kodaline would be now in terms of profile. They were in that whole clique with The Frames, Damien Rice (who used be their lead singer), Mundy etc. They're ok, I reckon. A few good songs but, as IBF says, not a band to get the blood pumping. Have a few pints, hope you get decent weather and relax.
