Blossoms at the Forum

This was a really good gig start to finish and I think all three of us felt that.

Opening act I am afraid I didn't catch the name of, but they were pretty good.




There was a second support, the Touts from Northern Ireland. So Irish that they were almost unintelligible. But this was basically a punk band, maybe the descendants of  Stiff Little Fingers. Not everyone's cup of tea, but suited me and I think if you like punk/new wave you would have to say they were very proficient
.




 Then onto Blossoms. A new album to promote, Cool Like You. I had been listening to it for a week and was getting very happy with it. On a par with their debut. This was a triumphant gig. Just a lot of great songs.














Lead singer Tom Ogden did a nice solo spot for My Favourite Room, which he then just merged into a medley of nice guitar songs he knew.
