Hi all,
Really enjoyed last nights set by EBB. Must admit they sounded very tight and
polished. I would say along with Stratford in 2007 it was the best they've
sounded. Its a shame they didn't have longer to play. They played,
Mommas Reward,
Speak down the wires,
Why can't somebody love me
The Moth
Call me a liar
Green lights
Love in the Rain
Evening over Rooftops
Hotel Room
Out Demons Out
They really got the crowd going and the majority of the audience singing along
to Out Demons Out. The band seemed to really enjoy themselves. Good to see
Andy/Lewis Taylor back in the band. There was a really good turnout in
Aylesbury. Must have been a good 500+ people there. Link below is for photos of
the EBB last night;

Must admit it was great to see Groundhogs and The Pretty Things (with special
guest appearance from Arthur Brown!). Also saw Peter Jenner on a pair of
crutches. Have also never seen so many paparazzi down the front of an EBB
performance!
Was it me or did Tony Mcphee's guitar sound a bit off sync at times? Im not one
to criticise the great man but I couldnt tell if he had a dodgy guitar or if he
had a not so good night. Saying that, at times he was mindblowing. The pretty
things were excellent, like EBB, they have an injection of younger blood in the
band and they sounded great. Especially considering they had played the
Childline gig at the o2 just before playing in Aylesbury. Particularly liked SF
sorrow tracks and their blues covers.
Steve, sorry mate, did look around for you but couldnt see you. Hope you got
home ok, we got back to Canterbury at 1am which wasnt too bad. By the way, nice
to win the FA Cup wasn't it!
Cheers
Neil
