Band: Fred's House
Venue: The Portland Arms, Cambridge
Date: 24/10/2013
Audience: Sold out, frantic
Set: Last Thing I Wanted, Standing Next To Me
Notes: I seem to be spending a lot of time at the Portland of late, playing and watching gigs, but last night was a bit different - it was the NMG (New Music Generator) awards, there was a red carpet, people wearing jeans were refused entry, no tickets on the door and more punters than you would have thought possible squeezed in. I knew a lot of people there last night, it often felt more like a networking event than a gig, but with a nice party vibe going on. We won two awards - The Audience Choice and Best Folk/Roots act, the second of which caught us by surprise as we assumed our friends The Willows would win that one. We also played a couple tunes in front of a vibrant and excitable audience, and felt very happy about everything. All is very well indeed in Fred's House.
