note:
I can't quite believe I've had the pleasure to see this lot twice in the space of 6 months, it really is such a treat to hear this music live.
Very similar set to last time but with a few additions, Empty City being a great choice but then so is I Lost My Head.
The band are definitely tighter now with Kerry more integrated than in the previous show, and he seems happier and confident, so great to seem him perform.
It's late, I can't really give much of a review now I'll leave that for the posters to come.
Alternatively, check out Progressive Ears where there's bound to be a few reports and links to pics/vids etc.
