Gig report: Fred's House Waterbeach/Portland pub gigs

Band: Fred's House
Venue: The White Horse, Waterbeach/The Black Bull, Godmanchester
Dates: 31/10/13, 01/11/13
Audiences: Busy
Sets: Lots of songs
Notes: Felt right to put these in the same blog post as they were quite similar gigs - pub gigs, with large chunks of covers - paid gigs basically which help fund the album. The White Horse in Waterbeach is a new venue and very nice it is too - decent size, very friendly staff, the locals seemed up for it. It was Halloween so I wore a 'scary' mask throughout most of it, it fell down during one of the faster songs and momentarily I couldn't see or breathe but had to finish the song...got away with it though. Nice little gig that, the more the audience are enthused, the more excitable we play - we ended up playing for a long time because the crowd were so up for it. The White Horse is well worth checking out. A day later we played at The Black Bull, a quieter affair, similar set but to be honest I wasn't feeling this one as much.
