    Possibly the most annoying gig I have ever been to. I hate self indulgent w*nkers like that singer. I went to hear music not listen to him spouting on, thinking he was Billy Connolly. A shame really because he can actually sing.

    the fella is not all there, he's been battling mental illness for years. i personally really enjoyed the gig anyway, they pretty much played all the best stuff off the album and were really tight. will be checkin em out at the picnic again

    Jairzinho, were you the guy I could hear a few rows back shouting "You're not Billy Conolly" up at the stage during one of the extended interludes? I have to agree that the several minutes of zany mutterings in between most songs started to get old pretty fast.. I thought they were okay, I'd only heard a couple of tunes on their myspace page after a friend recommended going to the gig, was expecting more of a Super Furries style eclectic pop vibe with some more emphasis on the electronics but it ended up feeling to my ears essentially like a 60s tribute with occasional diversions into Pink Floyd territory. Wasn't expecting the place to be so crammed on a Monday night for what I thought was a relatively little-known band, anyway.
