Band: Eureka Stockade
Venue: The Portland Arms, Cambridge
Date: 14/06/11
Audience: Small-ish but very nice
Set: Not sure - opened with All Alone, ended with Heroes Fall, about 5 songs in the middle
Notes: As I walked off tonight I said 'that was horrible', but I think that was probably an over reaction. There was a lot of nice things about tonight, hanging out with my Eureka chums beforehand is always nice, this is what I like about being in a band sometimes. It was also nice to proper rock out - having done lots of acoustic things recently (including the Strawberry Fair with Eureka Stockade which was a quieter one) it was nice to hit those drums hard. Having been about for a couple years now we've built a nice set, so a half an hour support slot sees us being able to pick and choose rather than play everything we know, so we played our rockier set tonight - 'Violence' (still our most popular single) and 'Erotomania' thrown in ahead of the ballad-ee material. That was probably why we weren't the tightest tonight though, as we've not played those songs in what feels like ages, so it was a bit of a rough one, but the crowd seemed to respond well anyway. The 'horrible' feeling though was just from the heat, it was ridiculously hot up there tonight, that felt like a proper work out.
