To see you nice
Home
Really got to remember this time, I DO NOT LIKE THE ANGELIC in Islington... It seems nice enough as a pub, but each time I've been there smy pint's been a bit funny, and I've had to return it... now this time they had no draught beers at all (have they given up?), only lagers, and not even a draught cider. And there was nowhere to sit. Final straw is that they insisted *this* was the vege roast potatoes and *that* wasn't, but they all had bacon in them. We only went there to eat before the David Devant gig, and didn't have time to get anything else. It was a good and rare opportunity to meet up with some friends, but even that led me to think "we used to do this all the time", which is now making me feel a bit worse for not being a better friend! Man there's a dark cloud over me today...
Bacongate didn't set me up right for the gig, and the fact it's in Islington Academy didn't help either. I was going to call it the worst venue in London, but to be fair I have trouble thinking of a venue I like. Am I just getting old?
Great turnout though, great set, and interesting to see the return of the wig! Two guitarists on stage for the encore, the sound should have been INTENSE, but it wasn't really, I blame the venue...
Read more about David Devant or just go straight to devant.info if you're not aware of their work.

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
