Friday October 15th
The Wesley Anne & Northcote Social Club
High Street never fails deliver. The front bar at the Anne housed the first of three Friday's installments from the Idle Hoes who delivered an amazing folk-pop country-laced two hour set. Awesome mandolin-infused easily accessible ballads.
Kel sat on a stool an produced some heart-felt ditties that were soulful, but lacked the confidence to captivate the room!
A most un-named three piece rock bank delivered an Ethan-Hawke inspired, pop-Soundgarden set but really failed to capture the imagination of the more hipsterish crowd, despite having some cracking riffs.
Big Smoke were an amazing five piece who rotated instruments most songs as they delivered an impressive and engaging closing show with modern pop-country basis to them all.
Tim & Jean at the Northcote Social Club cost $12, but in hindsight I would have paid $100. These guys will be around forever and will pack out summer festivals for the next two decades. Daft Punk and Evermore came together last night night as they turned the almost entirely male crowd into raptures! Amazing
Four woos out of five
