Off to see Wolf Alice in Southampton tonight, just in case anyone else is going.
Will report back in in due course.
Excellent! It turns out I'm not too old to mosh, not that I had much say in the matter
As soon as the 2nd track (Yuk Foo) started everyone was like a kangaroo riding a pogo stick on a trampoline. With the exception of the odd slower track the evening continued to be equally epic. Probably one of the most exciting gigs I've been to.
Honourable mention to the two support acts:
Superfood were funky but not really my cuppa, though played a solid and very tight act. No complaints. Would happily see them again.
Sunflower Bean were the better of the two. New York rockers with hints of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, mixing grungy thrash with some dreamier stuff. Singer Julia Cumming has a hell of a voice. A well rehearsed and accomplished act well worth seeing in their own right.
