The title of this blog and several posts have been honoured toward the band Hard-Fi. It has taken around 3years of their existence however, for me to finally get to see them perform live.
After several disappointments in the UK where the band had to cancel gigs I was meant to see, and the band reaching Australia last year just after I left, I finally secured tickets to one of their gigs...In the run up I heard a few bad reviews of their live stuff, so I was prepared for a rough ride.
Back at the Metro Theatre, the West London boys came on stage just after 10pm Wednesday 3rd October to rapturous applause. They opened up with Middle Eastern Holiday which did sound a bit flat from the lead and backing singers. The quality of singing didn't really improve, but luckily their own hits and a whole load of audience participation saved the show.
A pretty average gig, but enjoyable none the less to finally hear some songs live, that have been real soundtracks to my life over the last 3years. Thanks for Stars of CCTV Hard-Fi.
