Valentines weekend off with a bang!
Buzzing off early on Friday, and thanks to the Xmas pressie from the Dynamics team, I started this weekend by seeing 2008 breakthrough act The Script (one of my favourite new bands) at Camden's Round House. Stayed in Regents Park (not literally obviously) and took a client-recommendation to eat at the weirdly fantastic Gilgamesh by the Stables Market in Camden, before the gig. Food (sushi, crispy duck, dim-sum, rump steaks and a mad dessert) was great, and the place generally first rate so cheers to Kate at the Embassy in Mayfair for that!
Gig - venue was cool enough, quite intimate as only takes couple of thousands or so. Watched another very good band called Gary Go first, another breakthrough act and very much like the Script actually; could have been them! We missed Will & The People (currently supporting the Hoosiers) who went on early, but I did spend the rest of the gig chatting with their vocalist Will Rendle and his brothers, whilst watching the other acts.
Glad to report that main act The Script did not disappoint, and took the whole night up a level. Only played for an an hour, but then they've only got about twelve songs down I guess! All in all, great night and a banging start to Valentine's weekend in London... thanks again guys!
