Another great venue, fairly small, compact, with down stairs seating that was like being in the pit. This was the first time I actually sat down at a gig of my own accord and didn't move during the whole show and saw everything, excellent. Serafin a band I hadn't  heard of before came on and played a tight set and got the crowd jumping, before a very small wait until the main attraction, why can't all gigs be as organised like this...?

Feeder hit the stage and after a few songs Grant commented what a great venue this was and how much he loved it, no arguments from me there. The performance was filled with variety and energy, and I liked the idea of playing the video's to certain song behind the band as they played. I must admit this was the first time I'd seen Feeder since the death of John and I was a little surprised how different the band seemed, just one of those things that's hard to explain, although the new line up seemed to gel well, and Taka seemed to  move about more than I remember...!. The set contained, of mainly new songs taken from the last couple of albums, although surprisingly for me when High was played it was like most of the crowd hadn't heard it before, they seem to jump around more to Buck Rogers and Just A Day, maybe I'm just getting old....!, guess it's just time to move on, but a Feeder show without High, well that couldn't happen. Grant did dedicated My Perfect Day to the old school though. A highlight of the night for me was after the break Grant came back on stage and played Love Pollution by himself, wonderful, shame they didn't also play Godzilla, I love that track, but a super night anyway by a top British Rock Band.
