Venue: The Rose and Crown, Erdington, Birmingham
Date: 03/11/12

Notes: Our final (scheduled/public) gig of the year and back to playing electric with the full band for this show in Birmingham. I really like Birmingham - it's the second time we've played there this year and I like it more than most places, people just seem really friendly. Nice guesthouse, very comfortable. We were booked to play this as part of a fairly large charity event for Water Aid, a very worthy cause and organised by very nice people who made us feel welcome. Busy audience, we were the only electric band following the acoustic opener and excellent comedian Tony Cowards. Kind of get the feeling a party covers band may have been more suitable, but that's not to say we weren't well received, we were pretty much background music but with a couple of dedicated people at the front were really into it. It was all very friendly anyway, and it's the first time we've played 'Feeling' live I think. Last British IBM gig for a while as Dave is off to the USA and I'll be doing some theatre-ee stuff over the next few weeks, not a bad night at all.
