Gang of Four

I was very excited about this show because of the venue. I saw Placebo there with my wife a year ago and it was one of my favorite shows (although Placebo is her band). I’m glad to say I got to experience Gang of Four in a pretty intimate (or as close to intimate as you can get) setting. Hugo was solid, Jon brought the fire, Ted Leo channeled the essence of Andy Gill and Gail Greenwood supplied the low end to help tie all this noise together. I had some gripes with the set (Awww c’mon! Nothing from Hard…which gets a bad rap) but overall I really enjoyed the show. Afterwards the band came out to the merchandise table and mixed it up with the fans. It was a lovely evening.
