Toni and I headed off to Boston Arms Music Room at Tufnell Park for this little gig.
For once there had been no rush to get there but when we arrived it transpired that the first support band had cancelled anyway so we arrived just in time for the remaining three bands.
NOISE COMPLAINT
I quite enjoyed these guys. It was no nonsense short sharp hardcore. The sound wasn't overly great for them although they did sound kind of samey after a while. There was a small crowd that watched who were appreciative. New song "Don't Push Me" sounded pretty good and was their best song of the night. I'll definitely be interested in hearing how these guys sound in the studio rather than live.

A spot of Constipation for you
THE ARTERIES
Now this was more like it!Sum 41 meets Blink 182 while channelling the Muppets. A US college punk mashover! It's a shame these guys are based over here as they would go down a storm on the US college circuit. Great fun to watch, great songs and a great warm up!

Here's a couple of songs, titles unkown:
ZERO BOYS
Wow, just wow! Zero Boys lived up to my expectation and then some! They played so many great songs and despite the fact that we are all getting on a bit it might as well have been the 80s! They sounded so good, just like they did on the records. I was astounded at their fantastic cover version of Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith. That made my night!

It was a fantastic night out and was also great to meet up with Robin and Ellie again. Big thumbs up to Robin for giving us a lift home afterwards too!
