i've seen
the feelers play 4 or 5 times, the latest being in methven in the latest
tour. we had a bit of drama before the gig cause the police had been through
twice already that nite checking for I.D., and being 19...i was a little
worried. i got in ok, but they asked my 2 flatmates who accompanied
me, so they were refused.....at this point i was a little worried......i
went up into the club, and thought i'd find matt....i found matt and he
came downstairs to have a bit of a chat......and while we were chatting
away, he went over and talked to their manager, tim, and then tim went
and talked to the guys on the door...and subsequesntly we were let in.....!!!...was
rather pleased...!....
when
the feelers finally got on at about 10.20...they started
straight
away with 'from space with love', which they always do
nowdays....the
sample began, and then ripper bass-line pounded away, and on it went........it
took a couple of songs for the crowd to get goin', but once they did, there
was no stopping us...especially when pressure man began.......the played
for an hour of non-stop amazing mayhem...it was brilliant.....they finished
with a brilliant version of 'venus', which i hadn't heard live before,
and even included another slow song, 'float', which i also hadn't heard
live......the best song of the nite though was 'pull the strings'....this
song is their best live song, and it's
amazing.....the
album version though is techno-ish....which
took
a little to get used too.......they played all the album tracks
minus
1, and a couple of b-sides.......the only sour points of the
gig was
the bastard bouncer, who got really agro when he shouldn't have and started
shoving everyone....matt agreed with me afterwoods that he shouldn't be
a bouncer an amazing nite for all...and can't wait for my next feelers
live experience........
