Hoosiers
Tuesday, July 24, 2007
Went to see really good gig last night. I have been slightly besotted with Hoosiers lately and managed to snag tickets for Revue bar in Soho, a tiny but ever so charming venue situated between gay cinema, a strip club and a porn shop. Classy.
Hoosiers were playing with The Levellers...if nothing, their fans knew all the lyrics and were rather rowdy and loyal. You could feel the love...and virtually be quite scared of it at the same time.
Passenger came next, relatively good band from Brighton whose vocalist is totally wrong for the band. I predict, if they make it big, he will be the first to be replaced.
The bassist stood next to me during Levellers’s gig and I never even knew it was him. If I’d known, I would have done my best to sexually assault him in some way and claim to be a groupie before I die. But as it was...an opportunity missed there.
Hoosiers were awesome, the lead singer is totally nuts but then, I never shied away from mental illness, in fact I applaud such individuals that can channel it positively.
They made me feel that I would like to be in a band. This is an option I will now seriously consider although lack of any musical knowledge and devoid of good singing voice, I do feel my qoptions will be limited.
I had a great time, nice venue, nice music, good atmosphere and bored looking Hugo clutching my bag in the corner...because I was dancing.
An absolute must see.
