I am Lewis. Also known as Speller, or online as Dyson. 20 years old, now working at GAME. Blogging since October 2008.
It was a fantastic night, seeing Hadouken! in a tiny venue, 250 capacity max. Totally different to seeing them at Reading Festival with a massive crowd where the people there are half-fans, people who know one of their songs, you know the type. Not that there’s anything wrong with that at all but when the room is full of people who know their album through repeated playthroughs the atmosphere can’t really be described. H! themselves were brilliant, the set was full of energy and they played all the stuff they should have done, including some brand spanking new stuff just for us. Tubelord were truly strange, catchy indie guff, with my comment about the Bassist having multiple seizures and singing about a metre away from the microphone still ringing true in my ears. Plus, I got to see it with James who I hadn’t seen since I left University several months ago which was fucking ace.
More like that, please.
Taken from James Lewis’ ‘thelewisaurus’ tumblr:
Hadouken! live. Really enjoyed Tubelord live, although slighty weird. Bassist was having way too many seizures to be taken seriously.
Was great to see Lewis again, regardless.
Best bit of the night was overseeing an old man use Twitter on his iPhone to write, in the middle of the gig I might add;
“Hadouken!? More like Fuckdouken!”.
