Every so often there comes the day when a gig hits a level that is unexpectedly good. I have seen the Bobkatz before and ignored their own publicity about being the best punk/rock in the area because I am
simply cynical of all publicity and choose to decide for myself.
Tonight at the Longbrooke was one of those gigs that impressed me enough to believe they may actually be right; they were on fire - the deciding factor was the superb drumming performance, not wishing to
take anything away from other members of the band, in this instance it takes three to tango.
The second half saw a great rendition of Kaiser Chiefs' number "Never miss a beat" which was a delight indeed and played to perfection. They
played many of the old favourites as well with the Ramones' "Havana Affair" being another I enjoyed. I just hope they are on this form the next time I see them.
