Derby Show
BoXofSlicE:
Haha saw you last night with your vinyls thinking wish I remembered to do that! Soon as I heard about the new cd I darted to the mercy stand. It's finally answered the question of which tracks were missing from the demo we have
Damon:
"Damon, were you the chap against the rails, taking pics on iphone or whatever it was?"
Yeah that was me. My friend bailed so i drove 4 and a half hours to Derby on my own, got to the venue just as the warm up band was playing their last song and was able to walk straight to the barrier. Genuinely the best gig i have ever been to, managed to hold out but had to join in with the singing by the time they played Souvenir.
Fucking brilliant band, brilliant audience and an amazing night.
I cannot wait until Saturday
Damon!

Totally loved the Derby gig, well worth the 390 mile round trip and I would do it again at the drop of a hat - I know what you mean about the satnav in Derby, at one point I was being told to turn right which would've had me drive right into a building, no road to be seen!!
I managed to have a quick word with each band member too although I was a bit starstruck - Nirvana were the reason I bought a guitar, Cable are the band that totally shaped my style and are my biggest influence, so I was a bit nervous!!
Back in the day I never managed to see them - I never thought I would - but I'm so glad these shows have happened/are happening. It made me smile to see Matt and Pete looking overwhelmed by the reaction early on in the set, I'm not sure they realised how relevant they still are to alot of people, certainly to me.
Highlights were Souvenir, God Gave Me Gravity, Vertigo, Pocket Promise complete with nahna nah nah singalong, Brothers & Sisters.....everything really, it was perfect (well almost perfect, a 3hr set would've been perfect!?).
Back to Manchester tomorrow (I have a spare ticket if anyone is interested?) to do it all again, and also say farewell to Hundred Reasons. Just hope this weather doesn't hinder the trip down!
