Saw the Yeah Yeah Yeahs at Brixton last night, and they was ace. The Bravery were absolute piffle though. Thought they might be OK, turned out they really are not a very good band. The single stood out a mile from their turgid set.

Duke Spirit were better than I thought they would be, and Mrs. Duke Spirit is gorgeous, but I still don't really see what so much fuss is about. Not bad, but still not great.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs were the best I've ever seen them. I just can't tire of their set, even if 75% of it is the same as last years. There were a couple of new songs, and they sound amazing, better than a lot of the stuff on Fever To Tell, IMHO. The atmosphere was fantastic, Karen's outfit (all-in-one catsuit with added long dangly tassles and glow in the dark skeleton effect and pink shiny eye mask. With a hood) was very special.

Great night out. Only bad thing was the lack of cider at the bar we were near.
