Orpheum @ The Comedy Pub

No rest for the wicked as it was straight back from holiday and up to London for the next Orpheum gig.

This one won't go down as an amazing experience!

It all started well as we loaded in and watched Bypolar sound check. The promoter for ROC(K)TOBER!! strolled in with lots of flyers and posters to give us to help advertise and push the event at Watford Colosseum. It was good to see him and great that things are looking good for the event.

We did our sound check and then had to hang around for ages as the opening band had pulled out so they were delaying the opening for 30 minutes. There were actually only two bands there at that point, Bypolar and Orpheum. Apparently the third band were on their way, they actually arrived not long before we hit the stage! The promoter was one of those sit back and expect everyone else to do the promotion and organisation types and as the line up had changed about four times in a week we've decided we probably won't be booking anything with him again!

On a more positive note, Orpheum's set was a good one, well received by those that were present and it was another important performance in our preparation for October.

Had to rush off at the end of the gig as Toni and I were knackered having travelled back from holiday today. Overall it was a good gig
