Norwich Arts Centre 31/10/09

This was our 80th gig and definitely the best yet. Norwich Arts Centre is an amazing venue - it's a church converted into a gig space and bar. We had the most thorough soundcheck we've had for a while - it was at this point that we realised how massive everything was sounding in the room. It was going to be a good one. A pre-gig Greek/Turkish culinary mash-up, including the finest mixed grill ever created, was consumed. A three course meal before a gig was certainly a step-up from the usual sweaty kebab shop fare. The gig itself was immense.The room was busy and punters liked what they saw - all our CDs were snapped up afterwards. We need to get back there soon.
