The Beginning.
So to top off a nice sunny day in Southsea, off I went to the Cellars at Eastney yesterday evening to watch my boyfriend's gig. I pre-warn you any comments about the drummer are completely bias..he's actually rubbish. (He's not).
So... the B of the Bang started off the night with an Acoustic set -playing a mixture of older tracks from their album Beginning,Middle,End. and a few new ones from their forth coming E.P. As with any B of the Bang gig you are guaranteed a good night thanks to their large assortment of instruments creating all sorts of inspirational sounds, constant witty banter throughout, and of course the overwhelming handsomeness of the drummer.
As with any gig, there were some tuning issues and some guitar strings snapping along the way but this did not effect the overall quality of the set or knock any confidence.
The Middle.
A few pints later, next up was Chris TT. A one-man set from Brighton, with just a guitar and keyboard for company. The only way I can describe the sound was a complete cross between musician Frank Turner and Jack Black. His songs were full of very clever lyrics and additional humourous stories and comments. The set was highly entertaining and clearly Chris TT is a man of many ideas. Although at first seeming a little awkward I was completely persuaded by his music in the end, and would recommend a listen to any music lovers.
It was a quiet and relaxed gig, somewhat lacking in viewers but making the night all the more private and special. Definitely had a good evening's entertainment and both bands I will be ready to see again soon.
The End.
