Museum Vaults 08-05-2016


Sunday's show was a very eventful one! with Support from some great local bands! Fire Lady Luck and new young punk band Symbient. this is one for the blog!!

It was a very hot Sunday which would mean a lot of thirsty people and plenty of pints going down.

I was down nice and early moving tables and chairs, while setting up the PA system ready for the bands, after hearing the PA was on the blink and blew up last time. So there was no pressure to make sure the system worked fine and nothing blew up!

soon all bands turned up and things kicked off, apart from the last min issues of missing HI hat stand and, a few repairs. Symbient kicked off their covers and original set, with the band playing fast, loud and Daniel giving it all he could on his vocals. Their main bassist had ended up in hospital from a very bad asthma attack so lewis of Fire Lady Luck stepped in on the bass to help them out, with only one day practice with them, he pulled it off well! then another issue popped up of a runaway bass drum! young jay's beatings was sending it off so with a few bricks that was fixed straight away.
with Symbient playing a great set of covers and originals they dedicated their set to their bassist who was in hospital. good on the guys!

Fire Lady Luck took to the stage opening their set with some tracks from their new album. some which i haven't heard before. But with blasting through a great 45 min lively set of originals from their new album and tracks from their previous albums. With Lewis changing from bass to his trusty Les Paul junior.

Soon it was time for ourselves to take to the stage, setting up and sound checking with some help from lewis running the PA we kicked off our 45 - 1 hour set of covers and originals with our favourite opening track by UK Subs CID! going through our very long set list, blasting out our two new tracks "I Don't Remember" and "Flying Fortress" which had a great reaction from the crowd, we kept blasting through the tracks, but a gig wouldn't be a gig without the odd hiccup on the PA which was easily fixed, we soon ended our set with a few encores and a new cover we only had a rough rehearsal on, which was none other than white riot by the Clash! And finally ending our set with a fast punktastic cover of House of the Rising sun!

all in all Sunday's gig was very eventful with the sun out and a good all round feeling chatting to various friends and making new friends on the day, it was a great show!
