[Nature's Discontent]

Great gig. Had to leave early to catch a train back to Southampton (where I'm staying till the Brixton gig on Saturday) but enjoyed it all the same. Small Black Flowers was a very nice surprise but DITS seemed a little slow which I'd already heard about so was bracing myself beforehand anyway. Still pretty awesome though. And Enola/Alone was a highlight too, sounded a lot better than it had done at Cardiff, as did Futurology.

I was surrounded by a load of 40-year-olds who were stood still for most of the gig barring the EMG and Truth songs but I wasn't complaining as I wasn't pushed at all Although was a bit squashed.

Contrary to a few opinions I've seen on here so far, I actually quite liked the Escapists. Oh well
