The Gaslight Anthem 4th of June

[Sarc]

Anyone other than me and the infamous Ean going?

[markE]

yup. quite a few people i should think



me and the wife are going -so you will have to work twice as hard to avoid us this time sarc.

[Sarc]

Twice as hard? doubt it we'll just arrange to meet in a pub then I'll go to a different one.

[markE]

ouch

[markE]

have you guys got standing tickets?

if not why not?

wifey and i are coming after i finish work, have dinner etc so we will be getting there 7.30 ish depending on trains. do you know owt about the support bands?

gaslight were awesome at sheps bush last time so i can't wait to see them again.

[Sarc]

Yes we have standing tickets, no idea what time we'll be there though, cant remember which support act i listened to (i think there where two members in the band) but i wasnt that impressed.

[Ean]

^ What he said.

Support is Mando Diao and White Belt Yellow Tag. Haven't listened to them cos I haven't been arsed to upgrade my flash player yet so Myspaz music doesn't work at the moment.

[markE]

just listened to white belt yellow tag and mando diao on their myspace pages. wasn't really very impressed by either tbh. bit indie pop - not enough geetar.

might see you there then.

fucking lload s morre people - the place was heaving.

did you guys have a good time? i kept an eye open for you but didn't see you. we were quite close to the front on the bassist side ( seems to be our regular spot.)

i thought the show was fantastic. completely different setlist to last time but they were on fine form and genereally it was just great fun.
frank turner was stood on the side of the stage all night and i thought he might come on and do something in the encore ( especially after they changed the words of a song to i still love frank turner songs ).


saw the last few numbers of the first support and was quite impressed. they seemed much noisier and interesting than their myspace tracks.
second support were great - really professional and a good old fashioned rock and roll band style - like watching someone from the sixties.

the tubes were hell aferwards- stuck between stations ina carriage full of overheated gig goers is not fun.

[Sarc]

We did indeed have fun, we where right on the barrier but the opposite side to you, I took some ace photos but being a twat deleted them on the tube on the way back.

I bloody thought that was Turner, glad he didnt come out to be honest as I always thought his stuff was really boring. Not much to say really other than FUCKING YES, great night and best of all I get to see them again in two weeks time when they open for Bruce Springsteen at Hyde Park.

Ean will probably tell more when he turns up.

Ean also said the now famous "Pig Flute".

Just checked them out - are they The Killers in disguise?

Just checked them out - are they The Killers in disguise?

they're a FUCKLOAD better than the killers. also, their first coupla records are a little punkier than the newest.

Eh? you listened to the same stuff I have? i think not, they sounds exaclty in the same vein.
The vein of pure excellence.

Cant wait to see them again at Hyde Park opening for Mr Springsteen in a week or two

[spoon_of_grimbo]

oh i can definitely hear the resemblance to the killers on the 59 sound, but i think that's more due to the vocal production than anything else. sink or swim and senor and the queen don't sound much like them.
