Boys Noize + The Horrors in One Night Bonanzarama!!!

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Well, I did it. Or should I say, we did it. Me and big PCJ saw 2 bands in one night in 2 different cities. The Horrors were first up at King tut’s in Glasgow. They put on a pretty good show, and I’m glad I got to see them play ‘Sea Within A Sea’. We spent a lot of the time staring at/laughing/slagging the bassist/keyboardist (pictured in the black+white stripey t-shirt below) though, because he was doing this fucked up little dance that you’d have done in the 80s that just looked weird. I was half expecting Simon Le Bon to jump out. He did look the part though, I’ll give him that.

The second gig of the night was the best. Boys Noize at Cabaret Voltaire in Edinburgh. By the time we got off the train from Glasgow, and into the club Boys Noize had already started. He played the best DJ set I’ve ever heard, the crowd were going absolutely dogshit and the sweat was pouring off everyone! I loved it when they kept turning all the lights out and ramping up the smoke-machine, I swear you could barely see the hand in front of your face. By the time I came out (mega 3-hour set!!) I was wetter than Cytherea – the best sign of a great night out.
