We had a meal down the road before rocking up to the venue just before Goldhawks came on. They were allright, energetic, quite nice rocky songs, they gave as good as they got and did well. I wasn't particularly interested though, I am not sure what they will achieve, it may depend on the public's current flavour. Indie-light of sorts, expect them to follow a few bands as support on a few tours or see them on some of the summer's smaller stages but I can't see them going beyond that.
After a trip to the bar for a beer, the sultry Tiffany Page wonders on, she's all gravelly voiced and short black dress. She strums her guitar and sings and makes many a young man's dreams. She's supported the new look Hole which doesnt surprise me, she's going for a grungy sound but has a look of the pretty little girl about her. Her songs arre good enough, I can see her making a few radio playlists, and producing a hit of two. She seems like a nice girl with a good voice.
Finally Detroit Social Club, a band I've read about but don't know take the stage. A georgie six-piece, they fill the Garage's small stage. Their sound seems to comprise of the more trippy and psychdelic of Kasabian's output, long numbers with lengthy instrumentals. The singer doesnt always seem to know what to do with himself during these moments air-drumming and walking around the stage aimlessly.
My friend and I got bored, both lagging and tired and feeling the midweek beers, we took our leave a couple of songs in. It feels easier to leave a free gig then one you've paid for. I wasn't hugely taken by the night's band, but I will keep an ear out to see if they are worth further investigation.
