Two gigs in a week
this week has certainly been eventful in terms of barbs related activities (uni related activities i'd rather not discuss right now :X .
Last friday went to gig in London, Barbs supporting Mika Bomb. Met up with forum types beforehand this time, which was fun as almost instantly i was offered tickets to see iron maiden in paris (did my t-shirt give me away i wonder?), that was Mike, who isn't on the forum, accompanied by Michela, DaveM and SteveM who are. what fun we had! one downside, we had met in a weatherspoons, and those hellish places don't serve Jack Daniels whatever was i to do? drank jamesons instead and got just as smashed, thats what i did!
barbs were good as usual, except one of the guitars was feeding back like a bastard, but thats not their fault. new song played, which i think i liked at the time but was too drunk to remember. Mika Bomb were okay, but i don't think the rest of the Barbs faithful are as into japanese mentalism as i, didn't seem to go down well with them at all. DaveM attempted to film the gig, but i don't think it's quite worked out, y'see in order to get a good picture he had to be up close, but that meant he's likely to get shit sound and visa versa. this has led me to have an idea, the next gig after the one tomorrow (woo!) i'm gonna see if i can book out a nagra reel-to reel sound recorder or a more likely a little MD recorder to get the sound, which we can then combine with a close up film, need to bring that up with everybody first, get approval and so on, imagine though, a barbs live DVD.....*drools*.
as i said another gig tomorrow, this time barbs headlining, so longer set and an encore, hooray!
and finally, Amy (vocals guitar) has got a job at Medway KMFM on the breakfast show, heard it this morning and was most pleasantly surprised.
