The Leisure Society

Out last night to see the Leisure Society. What a great band, I doubt there are many better songwriters out there.

The tour is to promote their new album which if I am honest I've only managed to play a few times. Initial impressions are good though. 

Live they are just brilliant, the songs build so well and have so much going on and yet they never feel overwhelmed. The energy that a live performance brings though just puts them onto another level (a higher one, which is probably a good thing). Excellent intersong banter as well, including a most excellent advert for 10 pin bowling's 2 for £10 offer. I don't think I have ever seen a band have restart a song because they were laughing so much.
