We made the trek all the way over to Leeds last night to see a band we’d already seen twice before - Gameface. Why? Because they never fail to disappoint, and last night was no different.

Despite Jeff (their vocalist) explaining at the start of the night how tired they all were after travelling for 11 hours straight they still played a really tight set, covering songs old and new. It was a long gig as a result, but that’s because they’ve been around a good few years and have a lot of material to cover. Saying that though, they didn’t play the one song that I really wanted to hear (”Day in June”), although they did play at least two songs from my favourite album so it’s all good.

We didn’t catch any of the supporting bands (yeah yeah, snobs that we are and all that) so I can’t comment on those guys. Soz! :)

Giddy Motors are playing next week on Monday at the Star and Garter in Manchester. I’m so looking forward to seeing these play live - their debut album “Make It Pop” is completely off the hook and it sounds like their show will be mental. I only hope I can make it as jury service starts next week :(

See, and here was me complaining not more than a couple of weeks ago about how no decent bands have played since I’ve come back from the US, and next thing you know two incredible ones are playing less than a week apart from each other. Score :)
