Woo hoo back in Birmingham for a gig. I’ve been previously for PUSA and NIN. Same venue this time there was no way I was going to get home on the train or coach so booked into a hostel which worked out quite well as I was in a room with only one other guy and he came in really quietly and the bunk beds weren’t bunk beds they were almost separate pods so even if there had been a few people it’d been fine.
Anyway onto the gig. The venue was the biggest outside London and was a bit empty actually which was strange for a Saturday night and I believe with a club afterwards. I actually caught Kid Carpet this time and I was impressed, he makes music with toy instruments, sound effects and other things, he does a great version of Jump by Van Halen.
Of course a PUSA live gig never disappoints with a changed up setlist again and with crowd interaction. Just before Chris started Mixed SOB he noticed a young kid on his dad’s shoulders and asked him to cover his ears or ask his dad why sometimes it’s OK to say bad words.
Setlist:
- Tiki god
- Kitty
- Rot in the sun
- Some Postman
- Boll Weevil
- Ladybug
- Zero friction
- Dune Buggy
