Not knowing what was gig attire, I turned up in my 'Vice' photographed boots (purple with gold bows) and a sequined tee. What I should've pulled on was some jeans, a check shirt, stripey tee and a hoodie, well I'll know for next time!
As Flats downed some snake bite, I chilled in the corner, watching in awe as the room filled with kids from the age of 14 to grown ups! This was some cult following! Naturally we made our way to the front, it's all about the view you know!
A more detailed review will follow from Bleu, but lets just say . . . The Maccabees - The energy was outstanding, the vocals (both Felix's and Orlando's) were fantastic and the playing of the accordion suggests that there maybe no end to Orlando's talent!
Though I was the only person (beside the huge, hippy looking bouncer) who didn't know every single word, I did my best to whoop and 'indie shift' (it's a move apparently) with the rest of them!
Spotted:
*Miquita Oliver (of T4 fame) who was super friendly and chatted to Flats and I in the loos and posed for a picture!
*Matthew Horne, throwing some shapes!
*Naturally we saw The Maccabees, but we actually spoke to Felix and Orlando too!
