Saturday was yet another night when London was spoilt for choice when it comes to live music. Five Finger Death Punch, accompanied by the likes of Skindred and As Lions, were bringing their energy to Wembley Arena. On the other hand, Bring Me The Horizon, Neck Deep and Pvris were giving the ten thousand people inside Alexandra Palace a night to remember. Finally, in a tiny Camden pub called Our Black Heart, Bury Tomorrow were proving that being one of the best live bands around means small stages as well as massive ones. (But we're getting ahead of ourselves)
London
is spoilt for choice on that wintery Tuesday evening : Cambridge
natives Lonely The Brave are bringing their emotional pop rock to the
Islington Assembly Hall and Beartooth have probably destroyed the
Electric Ballroom with their riffs. Where
did I go, you ask ? To
the Underworld to see a band I've grown to love a lot over the past
year, Stray From The Path.
If you know me, you know I stand for the same thing Bury Tomorrow do : fuck paid meet and greets. Since another band I like (namely Pvris) has decided to make their fans pay for the right to meet them on their upcoming European tour and it made me angry, I will try to word my thoughts in a better way than those five words.
