Wooglie's Thoughts

I went to see the John Butler Trio last night at the Brixton Academy. This was an amazing gig, the first few songs were a bit disappointing as the guitar was bit quiet, but after that was sorted out the gig took off. It just kept on getting better and better; the passion and energy from all three was amazing. I particularly enjoyed the drum solo that must have lasted at least eight minutes, at one point the drummer was sitting with his back to the audience, playing some drums behind him, while still playing the bass drum with his foot reversed, amazing. Stand out tracks included Zebra, which really got the crowd going as well as the sublime Ocean.
