Albert Halls

Went to Albert Halls in Stirling to see Talisk and Blazin' Fiddles. I didn't actually know BF were playing, as I'd only booked for Talisk and I wasn't that fussed about seeing them. Was completely blown away by Blazin' Fiddles, who were on first. Then Talisk did their set - it would seem that a huge part of the gig is a light show and it was intense: lasers, strobes, blinding floodlights flashing on and off - honestly, far too much! Loads of folk were shielding their eyes. Music-wise it was OK, but unfortunately they weren't a patch on the performers before them. Very samey, far too much base (felt my heart and lungs reverberating!) and just too loud to be enjoyable. Not doubting their talent, especially the guy who plays the concertina - insane. But all in all, not fab. We left halfway through and we're not even old! 🤣

Really enjoyed both bands. Liked the venue but view was not great from the side balcony. Also the sound wasn't balanced in the balcony. Overall a good concert and would go back.

Great band spoilt by the idiots talking all the time, don't understand why they went they should have stayed in pub.

Absolutely amazing show and a fine tribute to the boss. Outstanding musicians who clearly care deeply about their craft.
