Subject | Shush @ Centro |
PostedDate | 7/25/2009 |
A different venue to check out tonight, and a new one to me. Centro is tucked away in West Central Street and not the easiest place to find. However, it's worth seeking out as it's free on this occasion and Shush are playing. I think Komodo Rock are the promoters behind this gig. It's more of a club venue than a live music venue, but it's certainly better than a few places I've been. It's a reasonable size with good service from a bar that much to my surprise stocks Newcastle Brown! However, I am less pleased when I find out it's £4 a bottle - still cheaper than the Underworld though! Another downer is that there is an attendant in the toilet - everybody hates these fuckers and I'm sure a lot of people who would otherwise have washed their hands rush past without doing so just to get away from these creepy guys as quickly as possible. There are several bands on so it would have been good value for money even if we had to pay a fiver to get in. I can't remember the name of the first band but they were OK. Sorry for the shite quality phone pics, but you'll just have to put up with it while we have the odd summer night that's actually warm. Next were Riot Noise. They played well enough but failed to really impress me with any of their songs. Shush are always good, and tonight was no exception - although the sound quality wasn't that amazing. They had Simon Gonk back on drums for tonight which is always a bonus! Certainly not a bad night - especially for free. |
These Blogs mainly deal with the countless gigs I go to, but there is some other stuff in there too - and the odd rant! I've just finished adding over 900 of my old posts from MySpace on here - everything is now on proper chronological order from 2005 to date - there is a LOT to read. Some of the older links may not work anymore - just click on the highlighted text for links to more info.
