This page is a running tally of all the concerts I've been to - half to inform you as to who's great, mediocre, or shitty live, and half to remind me where I've been (you know how the mind starts to go...). So enjoy!
My weekend was one of Lasts. Friday, it was (formerly known as S Club 7) S Club's last gig ever (EVAR!), and Saturday, it was bis's last London gig ever (the "last gig EVAR" distinction goes to Glasgow in a few night's time).
I've been meaning to see bis for years now, but since this is their last tour ever, it was definitely a "now or never" type affair. I kinda felt out of place because I only knew Return to Central plus a few scattered singles, and this was
much more of a "let's play really old album tracks and b-sides to thank the fans" setlist. They played a huge block of their older punk stuff, then Eurodisco (weee!), then a slightly shorter set of newer electro stuff. I thought it was kinda interesting that their encore consisted of "Today Of All Days" (their last single) directly followed by "Kandy Pop" (their very first single). Awww. :) And to the flip side of the S Clubs, I've never seen a BAND have so much fun onstage in a long time.
