Before I start this blog entry I wanna draw attention to something I noticed yesterday in the Metro daily newspaper. On a picture of Florence, the caption said 'Don't forget you can still win tickets to be in the mosh pit at the 30th Brit Awards...' MOSH PIT? I just though the fact the Metro thinks there will be a mosh pit at the Brit awards is hilarious, they clearly have never been to rock concert.
Any who, this gig was a bit of a suprise, a nice one at that. After a few pints watching the Leeds match, we headed down Div Street in Sheff. Ended up at Frog & Parrot where Mike Hughes was just starting a small acoustic set. Mike Hughes is one half of the Sheffield band Lenders In The Temple, the other half been Bromheads Tim Hampton. This set was a solo acoustic one and was nice to come across. We walked in at the beginning of a stunning cover of The Beatles 'Help'. After this he went on to play 4 more songs by himself, all with a nice settling feeling. Then with some help from a friend (on the electric guitar for effects), he finished off with 2 more country esc songs including a personal favourite song of mine 'Shake the Shakes', both seem to have a similarity to Bob Dylan. This was the third time I've seen Mike live now. Thoroughly enjoyed it once again,
Fightstar is next now :)
Peace
