You get an Eric set, an Amy set and an Eric and Amy set - all at the same time (sometimes all in the one song).<br /><br />3 bands playing 30 minutes each is ideal in my book and I dont even mind if the other bands arent musically similar (but on tuesday it would have helped if they'd actually had any redeeming features), the real trouble with early gigs is no-one see's the first band playing anyway which can leave everyone short changed.<br /><br />It was a good gig but it felt flat between songs when it should have been stepping up, more like a great practice in front of an audience, dunno if they were jet lagged or something. Theres a distinct lack of bass in the cabaret voltaire (as in the lower sound frequency rather than the instrument) which if you're not right in front of the band (and I was only a few steps back from yourself) it becomes a problem. Or maybe I'm just going deaf ?<br /><br />Minor gripes though. One of the guys I was speaking to was taping it, it'll be interesting to hear again.murrayhttp://www.myspace.com/shockandawemusicnoreply@blogger.com
