skin was crazy at In The City. When she walked on the crowd, I struggled to believe she was 46. Can't say I really enjoyed the music though.
alt-J were the reason I went, and I thoroughly enjoyed their set. Definitely one of my favourite live acts I have seen.
It was cool when she fell - you heard her sort of stumble over the line as she lost her balance, and then.. boom. I like that she takes risks like that. The band gives me the feeling that they're on the edge a lot of the time. Good ol' fashioned rock 'n roll style. Haven't seen a performance like that at a big gig for a long time.
I found Alt-J boring but I think the atmosphere had a lot to do with that. If it was a club or small theatre or somewhere with grass to chill, I probably could've got into that stuff. But at this street party deal with people all over the place taking photos of themselves... nah.
The Hives were okay but the Ewan Mcgregor/Jim Carrey lovechild frontman guy irritated me. He spoke way too much. I find their songs boring too. I like one or two though. So I was cranky by the time Skunk came on. That dissapeared quickly though ?
