we hired out a taxi and headed down about 6:30 pm and bumped into our good friends LoGOZ
we just caught the Kingcrows during midset great band i picked up a CD after the show.
next was a rather grungy inspired very simple up beat cheery happy band bad dog no biscuit wearing hawian shirts and singing songs about not wanting to get out of bed. during this time i think i was on my 2nd pint of cider and sophie was on her 3rd jack n coke
next up was a hard core i'd say old fat punk band with lots of aggression and funny t shirts such as fat people are harder to kidnap. i remember the bass player playing a very pretty black and green i assume gibson custom thunderbird with light up led fret markers on the neck IT WAS SO PRETTY! I WANTED IT "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!"
Next up was LoGOZ kicking off their set with *Long time dead* whao!! oh oh" such a cheery tune man.
Playing a great loud 30min set they pulled the crowds in, including a very tall punk standing next to me with a huge mowhawk who made me fell like a hobbit standing next to Gandalf. the guys ended their set with their usual crowd fav Mexicola la while giving out good advice about ebola *Dont catch Ebola* message received guys, they had the crowds cheering by the end. i should point out sophie did a bit filming for them during their set, shes good with a camera i can say that.
after the guys set i was on to my erm 6th pint i think and sophie on her 8th JD n Coke the next band was very in your face, words can't describe what i saw but that tall punk with the mowhawk i mentioned in the last paragraph he was the lead singer performing in Total disfunction. it was punk hardcore, scream core, death core metal type but from what i saw it was very in your face and a big F**k YOU to the system
next up was sham 69 i was on my 29th pint i think and sophie on her 500th JD and Coke, (by this time i lost count) i saw sham 69 at Newcastle calling when they had a reunion with jimmy pursey the original lead singer of the band i was very lucky to see these guys in action thinking i will never see it again but here they are in front of me performing their classic "Hurry up Harry" and ending the set with "If kids are united" they played a great classic set taking you back to the 70's
so after the show and being drunk and happy we caught up with LoGOZ and said our goodbyes and with myself being in a hyper drunken mood went over to give the guys a hug and a lift (i think its my drunk way of saying goodbye n take care) some how alcohol gives me strength these guys are taller than me and managed to lift them all. i'm glad they all got home safely its horrible driving at night
so with the show over me and sophie were hanging about waiting for the taxi to come and we got talking to sham 69 & their tour crew we had a laugh made friends with them even got pointed out i look like one of the Ramones
in the end we finally got our taxi and headed to the hotel, it was a great night great little venue great bands and good drink.
