Dodgy prawns

Social – Quick report back on Friday night and the bands we watched at Fibbers. Ben Leftwich (he of The Nicoles) was pretty good. The guitar sounded a bit weedy on its own. Hijak Oscar were not as I remembered them. We first saw them in an acoustic set when Odin’s Dragonfly were headlining. This time was much more chaotic and the guitar noise was too minimal. So, a bit disappointing. The Alpha Wave were fronted by a very tall man in a hat. He sang a bit like an Aladdin-era Bowie. The songs were OK, but not fantastic. By the time they had taken to the stage, we were ready for a second pint, except my stomach was flipping a bit and I chickened into a J2O. Just as well. By the time we staggered into the night air, my guts were dancing to the tune of a dodgy sweet and sour king prawn that I accidentally scoffed at tea-time. I had to excuse myself and cut the evening short. Sorry Andy!
