Bloody brilliant show as always. Even if you aren’t a huge fan of these guys you have to see them live, they put on a great show.

Greg stole a cymbal from Gil and wedged it between the left house speakers. Never been to the roundhouse before but I have to say it’s a great venue. Pretty much good views from anywhere in the place.
