Kate Nash on Monday was absolutely brilliant by the way. So good to see her back, happy and healthy. Life affirming stuff. Wonderful.
I was also there - a big pillar in my way which I had to look around. They were really powerful, especially considering the quite reserved nature of the assembled masses.
It was a pleasure after the experience of The Great Escape where background chatter is the norm to be amongst a totally silent audience
Being as everyone had to buy an album to get a ticket, most people went solo, so didn't know each other!
Saw Porridge Radio play an instore last night. In fact I saw very little of them as ended up stuck at the back of Resident and no room to move. Great sound considering the location and they played for almost an hour. It was great hearing latest album tracks and a few from the last album. If anyone is thinking about seeing them then they are playing in Hove early November.
Next up for me- Parquet Courts

Fontaines D.C. tonight at Chalk. Looking forward to it!
Parquet Courts are my favourite band by far, seeing them twice, once at Primavera next week then at O2 academy in London, they are a very good live band. Looking forward to seeing Porridge Radio in Barcelona next week, glad they don't clash with anyone.
Fontaines will be amazing at Chalk.
This week brings Run the Jewels at Brixton. Should be suitably rowdy.
3 top gigs all clashing tonight,
Jordan memorial gig at Concorde
Fontaines D.C at Chalk
However for me it has to be
David Devant and His Spirit Wife at the Hope and Ruin

Was there and they were brilliant...
Can't believe it's over 1/4 of a century since I saw them at the Essential Festival at Stanmer Park...
Really like the support, Micko and the Mellotronics...Well worth checking out
