Was using A's new super duper pooper digital cam. Got pretty good shots of the Wombats. More can be viewed here http://www.flickr.com/photos/dearlenny .No sign of chub chub Cherub. What happened?
don't you just love them? a little blue collar, a little rough about the edges. This was a fabulous gig, why? Coz popscene tonight was a little empty, I know- bad for The Enemy but great for us coz we got front row. My gal pal Sophie chilled out with them a little after and said they even cabbed it home.
Woo hoo! Bloc party. Now I only became a fan when they released "A Weekend in the City"- but my gal Sophie hung out with them when they were mere unknowns playing a gig at Bottom of the Hill. Apparently their performance has much improved since 05 but still not quite as polished as one would hear in the studio recordings- being heavy on drum n bass and synths, i'm not complaining. I'm glad they're also experimenting with looping on their new single. Perhaps this would help Kele on the vocals. They were a big tease though having 2 separate encores after the first mandatory one. Pity Gordy was missing.
Here's Sophie with cutie pie Tord. Hah! The gang stayed back like the superstars they are after the gig to party and mingle. I was on the way home to crawl into bed. These younguns. What can you do.
CORRECTION: Haha- Ms. Sophie corrected me that this is actually Dan and not Tord. Oops. What a fan.
