I should admit now before this gig I had no idea who these guys were - I was on the train home when I got a call asking if I could shoot the gig for a national, so I ended up driving back to my flat to get my kit, then to leeds for the gig. As it turned out I was really glad I did - the support band (who I dont think have a name) were from australia and were like a slightly beardier version of the shins, and Beach House are just ace. Some top tunes and much more depth than you’d expect from a band with no bassist. Only thing that slightly spoiled it was the absence of any light whatsoever, so I had to flash it.
