Cynics Anonymous

I go to as many gigs as is financially possible and thought it would be sensible to keep a journal of gigs I go to, cds I buy, new and old bands I come across and anything else I fancy going on about.

19 March - Beerjacket and Lou Hickey @ The Mixing Rooms, Glasgow

I'd never been in The Mixing Rooms before and it’s a strange set up. A thin long room and the stage, for want of a better term, is half way along the wall directly across from the main door. So the singer is 5 foot away from the comings and goings, which must be at very annoying.

Beerjacket seemed to be affected by this and even more so by the constant talking, which again in such a small venue must be off putting, but as per usual he played some great tunes and showcased his new album Accident History, which I would advise everyone to buy.



Lou Hickey was excellent, a lovely voice and accompanied by one of my favourite instruments, the cello! Check her out on myspace.
