Gaelic Theatre 25/9/10

Four bands on at the Gaelic in Surry Hills, in order:
Collarbones
Ghoul
Pikelet
Richard In Your Mind

My main intent was to go to see my school friend Marcus's band, Collarbones play, but unfortunately we mistimed ourselves and Tim Gareth and I arrived too late.
Tim had already seen Marcus play with Collarbones twice, but I haven't yet. So that was disappointing. There'll definitely be time though; Marcus has got a record contract, which means hopefully there'll be heaps more ops to see him!

Ghoul were pretty interesting having not listened to them before, but I thought it was hard to get a proper gauge on them from the live performance. I liked "Swimming Pool" - was a really sweet song.

Pikelet was pretty cool, we spent a good five minutes discussing what the lead singer's profession was. (We decided a schoolteacher.)
She didn't look like anything I'd imagined. She was selling merch afterwards so I bought a badge she'd made herself.

The second time seeing Richard and his crew.
The bassplayer's knee-bobbing and hand arching makes me laugh, and Richard's really interesting on stage, so I was more than happy to bob along to their tunes.

A fun show, the Gaelic's really nice inside, and the crowd was really chilled and happy to be there.
