So Thursday saw the new look Karmadillo headline Twinstock.
The supports were a mixture of local musicians, regulars and even bar staff entertaining for a few songs. Emmanuel had the audience peeling with his expletive laden opener and the aborted attempts at Totos Africa. Georgie won over the 80s metallers in the audience with her stab at Heart (pun intended). Rob W Jackson as ever performed a fun little solo set, even getting some avant garde dancing to the Spiderman/Batman amalgamation in SpiderBat.
The set we played was four songs long, opening with When The Sun Comes Up, closing with Pornstars, and these being bread to the sandwich fillings of Noone Else and Heart of Glass. Probably some things for us to think about in terms of the onstage sound, but the audience feedback was that the drums really worked...helped by Jules playing great in her first time on stage with us.
Good things are sure to follow, not just for us but also for Ciaron, Ellie and the new additions - Cillian and Louie. Good luck guys.
