Seeing Green Lung at a venue this small is a wonderful treat, and one I feel will not last for much longer as they scale the heights of their well-earned success, especially with this latest album, This Heathen Land. Not surprisingly, the venue was packed to the rafters, and being right down the front to witness this awesome band at close range was a real privilege. Their support act Lowen were also in their element, received a fittingly powerful response from the appreciative audience. Much to my surprise, the venue stayed open after the gig and the band were happy to Mill around and chat to us and pose for endless photos. Nothing was too much trouble. A very memorable gig and a venue I would be keen to return to. A special mention to the driver of the Green Lung tour bus who managed to back in an enormous vehicle plus trailer and made it look like he was parking a mini in front of an audience of outside-seated patrons. Worth the price of the ticket alone!
