Live: PWEI - Preaching to the Converted - Birmingham - 22nd January 2005

It's Saturday night and I've just driven over three hundred miles to Birmingham to see a band that split up over eight years ago. Have I lost the plot? Is this really worth the trek? Were they really as good as I remember? And even if they were, will they be even remotely as good now? Will I ruin the memory of those last gigs I went to see? It's time to find out.

It's with these memory and worries that I make my way into the Carling Academy in Birmingham to see Pop Will Eat Itself... who? It seems a generation has already grown up without PWEI; god, I feel old! So for those of you who don't know who PWEI are... well... er, you know what; I really haven't a clue how to describe them. "They're very much like scruffy pigs to look at.... they're very, very ugly indeed." You smiled, yes? Thats what PWEI are - they are a band that makes you smile. You can't help it. Their music never sits still; with its samples, pop, rhythm and rhyme you'll be pogoing along to...

Re: Live: PWEI - Preaching to the Converted

'Twas excellent couple of nights! And nice to meet cyber-friends!!
Did my body no good at all though!! LOL
Last time I saw Gill, I was slumped at the back, having run out of sweat & stamina!!
Getting too old for that!!

Hush my mouth! *I will not grow old, I won't, I won't, I won't!!!*

I just remembered the Freddie Mercury/Bettie Blue crossover in Belushis. I'll never see that poster in the same light again.
