Band: Flaming June
Venue: Lost Horizons Folk Club, London
Date: 15/02/13
Audience: Quiet but appreciative
Set: Stop The Ride, Nerves Of Steel, I Know What It's Like, Little Love In A Cruel World, Rumplestiltskin, The Devil's Daughter, Song For The Broken Hearted, Pyscho, Heal Me Believe Me, Wednesdays & Weekends
Notes: Another 'duo' Flaming June gig and Louise's second London show of the week. This felt like an easy night - the journey both ways was comfortable and hassle free (despite headlining I was home by midnight), the food was good and the beer was free. The venue itself - upstairs from a, shall we say, 'lively' pub looked great - candles, lights, cabaret-style seating, and the promoters were the friendliest and most enthusiastic I've met in a long time. A nice evening of quality music, there's something about folk clubs that sometimes make you feel a tad uncomfortable - because the audience are on the quieter end of the spectrum, there's no doubt that they're enjoying the songs and they're certainly paying attention, but compared the rowdy pub circuit it's a very different gig altogether. We played well, by a couple songs in we were really flying and the energy levels were, as ever, bordering on manic. I'm currently writing a stage show for Louise, for her Eartha Tydeville character (I'm also writing the show for Izzy and myself for the fringe), these feel like really healthy, creative times.
