Why call this a Nonreview? Couple of factors, I rushed from my radio show to the Academy on Thursday 28th April to see Glasvegas. Getting into the venue at 2050, I legged it downstairs to Twin Atlantic and caught literally one song, ‘Crash Land’ Great energy and vibe, really liked their sound.
Normally when I go to a gig, I make sure to see the opening act, if I review the gig I think it’s only fair. At this gig, time constraints were against me and this didn’t happen so I went into the main venue as Glasvegas were just starting.
The Academy was pretty packed so I got stuck at the back pretty near the bar. From here I learned a lesson, get to the venue early. If you’re not on the ground floor, The Academy is far from an amazing venue. The sound dims and it seems there are constant flows of people going for beer, which doesn’t help trying to get into a gig. (more…)
