British Sea Power – An evening of two gigs

If you browse through my blog you’ll see that I’m a big BSP fan. One thing I love about them is that the try to play different venues and you never know what you’re going to hear. Tonight was no different, with two gigs in different locations on the same night.

The first gig was in of all places, East Wintergarden, Canary Wharf. Not you usual rock venue.

This was a laid back semi-accoustic affair with a really interesting set list with a number of obscure and rarely heard songs.

After this gig they then rushed off to The Barfly in Camden for a short explosive ‘rock’ set. Rushing across London only added to the enjoyment.

As always, BSP excelled. This year especially, they’ve been on fire. They seem to be comfortable with the material and with five albums and the Zeus EP, they have a significant back catalogue that helps keep them and the audience interested.
