Since this was probably my last gig of 2008 (from one of my bestest ever bands), I feel I should give it a super-quick mini-review.
It was ace.
That’s all I can say.
I could elaborate. I could moan about Le Trabendo’s “wait outside in the freezing cold” policy before the gig (not very French). I could mention how impressed I was with the support band - the energetic 4-piece multi-instrumentalists, Nelson*. I could talk about how endearing I found Wolf Parade’s constant appreciation of the crowd’s applause & cheers. I could even mention the super-enthusiastic American stood next to me who was coincidently visiting his Parisian girlfriend when his favourite band were playing in Paris.
But I won’t bother.
Instead, I’ll just point you to these ace photos of the gig.
* Surprisingly a French band. (It isn’t my intention to offend the French here; it’s just a matter of fact they don’t produce a lot of great indie music).
