it's Tuesday right?
well Tuesday is here
slightly more deaf than usual, ears ringing, coz saw haven last night :-)
that's it the band that sounds like me :-)
in a weird kind of way this inspired me to get going with band stuff again
partly coz new haven stuff, some is very cool, but most is a bit whimpy...happy, like they are trying to make songs that will sell :-(
so it kinda made me think, I can do that, or even, I can do better.
v busy as always at work so wont go on, but quick review
main man looked either very ill or on drugs, and was wearing a scarf!! :-(
very different look to when first saw then, longer hair, all wearing black, very cool
now they look like the are trying to be more Indy :-(
they hadn't played for a while and with new album coming out they played a lot of new material,
some of which was very good, either great vocal hooks and or superb bass lines
one song called 'what is love' or something like that, was very good
the main man was rather more annoying than usual, saying 'nice one' far too much!
but over all they did alright, and sadly the old material outshined the new stuff
support bands, no idea of either of their names, but the first one sounded like coldplay/elbow...
they were very good at what they did, but missed the boat a little,
a bit like, we heard this on the radio and copied it...
I think everyone liked the last song they did
the second support band sounded like my bloody valentine in some ways
which is a good thing, but these guys weren't really very interesting.
a lot of the material sounded the same, so it was a 20 min mess really...
kind of interesting and boring at the same time
you got to hand it to them for the guitars being very loud though :-)
although my ears were ringing before haven came on!...not good really ;-/
anyway, that wraps that up
back to work...:-/
