They really do rule. Manchester Accademy 1. Didn't catch the support because my Goddamn girlfriend to a really long time to get ready. They were called Seargent though. Meh.
Came on, opened with Diamond Hoo Haa Man. I was hoping they would, because that is a rip-roaring rifftastic tune. They played basically half of their new album, which was no bad thing since it's by far their best album of this decade. The rest were all the classic singles. Sun Hits The Sky, Richard III, Late In The Day. Did an encore of Moving, Pumping On Your Stereo and Caught By The Fuzz.
Basically, they were fucking excellent. They have always been excellent. Anyone who doesn't have a copy of I Should Coco or In It For The Money should really mosey over to Demonoid and sort that out.
Next few gigs coming up are The Fall in Salford on May 3rd and Paul Weller in Blackpool May 8th.
