To start with aforementioned Innercity Pirates gig on 28th Oct, well it was ok but.... Their support were Red City who are as crap as we remember! The Pirates came on stage (what passes for a stage in Callaghans anyway) in fancy dress (Halloween), so it was Superman & Darth Vader playing. A few lineup changes - guitarist, keyboard player, and an extra singer - all names available on myspace . Set was ok, well ok for copious drinking previously. Not sure that the extra vocalist added anything to the songs, most of which were new (which to us means post My Red Cell days), or very new. All in all a bit disappointing, compared to their April gig.... On a happier note, a very eclectic mix at the Point on Wed 1st, courtesy of Mistys Big Adventure . Two support bands, Envy and Other Sins and Kate Goes . To start with Envy.. quite a polished performance from a support band, especially going on recent history! Enjoyable set, for more info see their website or myspace. Up next Kate Goes..
