The Towers of London Gig - Tuesday 02/05/06

Last Tuesday I went to see The Towers of London at 53 Degrees in Preston with Pete.

We started off the evening in Greyfriars with a few pints of reasonably priced beer and a reasonably priced meal. This was then followed by another reasonably priced beer in The Ship.

When we arrived at 53 Degrees, the first support had almost finished... the music from these guys (Gundown Sunday) was rather good although the female singer wasn't all that great. The second support (Hooker) was much better with their punky, rocky, style.

Following Hooker was the main act. The Towers of London permormed admirably and a great time was had by all.

As for the venue itself, upstairs in 53 Degrees, it was pretty good. There wasn't too many people there and the smallish room meant the atmosphere was good... we were also able to stand right up front to see all the action ;-)

There's was also a handy chap in the gents, dispensing soap and handing out towels... quite odd really. He also had a large selection of cheap fragrances and gave me a couple of lolly pops to take away with me :-D
