Orpheum @ The Peel

Tonight was Orpheum gig time again. This time we were at The Peel in Kingston upon Thames supporting Achilla and November-7. On arrival at the venue we were greeted with this sight:

OK so the spelling of Orpheum was wrong but it's not often you have a small venue put your name up in lights!

ORPHEUM
The gig was great, we had an awesome sound and we were well received by those that were there even if it was a disappointing turn out overall. I guess the England v France game and crap weather might have had an impact on people coming out. Two new additions to the set went really well and it was a luxury getting 45 minutes to play in rather than the usual 30 mins.

ACHILLA
What a great band these guys were. Some great songs, intricate playing and a great set of vocals! Very well received by the audience too.


NOVEMBER-7
They do say that the best is always saved for last! November-7 were awesome. Think Rammstein (lite) with a strong female front woman and you'll be getting close! Really really enjoyed their set and it was a real shame that so few people got to see this amazing band!
 
 
 
 

Here they are with a funky cover of Children Of The Revolution!



It was a fantastic night in general and a great one for Orpheum. As we finished our set we were pounced upon by the singer of Achilla who invited us to open for then at the Boston Music Rooms in July. Needless to say we accepted!
