maddrew - reinvent & unleash

I just came back from a live gig in Scala, near where I work in King’s Cross, London. It was a chance I cannot miss. I asked the lady, Tina who works in the ticket hall if I can pop and see a show tonight and she said ok, after I delivered some food to her. I didn’t know who was playing tonight and I only got there at the end part of the gig. Called the Weakerthans, they play one of my kind of music, acoustic guitar. They are awesome. Today is my first crawl to a live gig. I’ve never been to one except Madonna’s concert but that is more of a highly publicised, expensive show of orchestrated music. This is different because they are not as famous as The Kooks, at least to my limited but expanding interest knowledge of such acts. They are more intimate with the audience and have a younger, more hip audience. Scala is one the most famous venues in London for such events. Being there makes you part of emerging lesser known music producers that can burst into the scene in the near future.
