More B-52s…

Found these videos on YouTube, Planet Claire was their third encore. Whoever filmed that one must have been stood just in front of us.

The B-52s at the Birmingham Academy

The B-52s

Went to see the B-52s last night at Birmingham Academy. We learned several things; GPS hardware doesn’t like those underpass road bits they like in Brum and that maybe it would make more sense to go on the train – if they weren’t so shite that is.

We got to the place at 7pm and joined the line outside. As there was no supporting act there was a bit of a wait till the B’s hit the stage at 9.15ish. They played a good mix of old and new songs, plus Love Shack and an encore of Rock Lobster. It was awesome :) Well worth enduring the headache inducing lights, particularly during Strobe Light, a good test of my migraine reflecting green glasses of power.
