Glo-sticks are back

Posted by Joanna Roberts on 23 April, 2008

I’ve been to three very different gigs in the past three weeks. Each of them has taught me a little something.

Crystal Castles

  • Glo-sticks are back!
  • Dancing to Atari noises is more fun than it should be
  • I’m definitely a decade older than I used to be

Spook of the Thirteenth Lock

  • You CAN rock out with a banjo
  • People in Dublin have an encyclopedic knowledge of music
  • A couple of sticks of incense does not conceal smelly drains

The Gutter Twins

  • There’s a fine line between looking really cool and looking really awkward
  • Just because someone is a rubbish singer one night doesn’t mean you should rule them out altogether
  • Music, beer and jumping up and down with a rucksack on makes some people really happy
