It’s a corporate do for a paper firm. Would guess their head of events booked them and totally misread the room in terms of what would be decent for their bash.
Bang goes their events budget for 2022 though

A bit sad to watch......not the band but the crowd.....Are they alive? A bit sad seeing such a lame crowd, yeah... On an unrelated note, I didn't know they are doing different things during the mid break on Down Down. Interesting. Perhaps a foreshadow of new material (Backbone also surged from improv during the intro of Down Down). |

Perhaps a foreshadow of new material (Backbone also surged from improv during the intro of Down Down). I thought there were hints of Rockin' On at first, but I think I was wrong. Although there are one or two similarities, not least of which is the tempo. But it's quite good. Be nice if it morphed into some new material because it certainly has promise. It has that neck-moving encouragement  |

I can see the similarities to Rockin' On, but it's not like it has some very unique characteristics. Doesn't seem to be Rockin' On to me.
I'm waiting for new material heheh

Jesus Christ how fcuking embarrassing. To be honest from what I have seen on YouTube of this band playing recently, the crowd reaction is pretty much the same as in all the gigs!

What a cold environment for both the band and employees of that paper company. Francis thew a few cheeky remarks between songs towards the cold crowd which I’m sure the company employing their services would’ve appreciated not. I could only watch up to a point but did they play the obvious Paper Plane?
