with Empat Lima, Tek Tek Ensemble, Richie 1250 and the Brides of Christ, Sugar Fed Leopards
Bella Union, Saturday 13th August 2016
There were a lot of gigs I could have gone to on the night in particular and I was even invited to one. I thought this one would be good as other people were already covering the other gigs and I had not been to see these bands for a while.
The bands were all friends of each other and Steph Brett even played in three of them.
It was good to see Empat Lima again and the Tek Tek Ensemble got people up dancing as a lot more people had turned up by then.
This was the gig for people to dress up and be seen. Someone even kicked a champagne glass up into the air due to kicking whilst dancing.
Not sure about Richie 1250 and the Brides of Christ, but they were good theatre at least. Especially with the two women dressed as crayfish having a wrestle at the front of the stage for "dirty animals".
It was quite late by the time the Sugar Fed Leopards came on but I still enjoyed them even if I did not stay right until the end to see them. Look forward to seeing them again.
