Agent Blue, The Others @ The Jug of Ale

Tonight I went with Alex and Katherine to see Agent Blue and the others play at the Jug of Ale in Moseley. This was the first time I have been there and although Katherine said it only had the capacity of about 100 people I was not expecting it to be quite so small - it couldn't have been longer than the length of my house and not much wider either! This meant it was a nice intimate environment.

On first were Agent Blue, a band I have become a big fan of since mine and Katherine's freak discovery of them at Reading. To be honest eventhough they were the support band I went to see them. They did not disappoint. Sex, Drugs and Rocks through your window is probably my favourite song by them and well they played it excellently. Since there was no barrier they did not come out as rebellious as they did at Reading. I think this along with the fact that I know their music meant that musically they were excellent. I don't think they worked the crowd as well but with such a small audience it must be hard to. Though they didn't work the crowd as expected it was definitely and brilliant set..... I want more is what I was thinking when they ended the set.

I also got a free patch (time to get Alex to sew that on something!) off them and brought a t-shirt. It turns out that the largest size didn't fit me so I have given it to Alex who seemed very pleased.

The Others. They are a band I think I know a few songs by (in fact I do but at the time wasn't sure). Like Agent Blue they did an excellent set. I very much enjoyed their music. They got the crowd bouncing from the start with the audience jumping around them at the start. Was cool that you could get on to the stage. I think I even ended up in the mosh pit during the last two songs with the lead singer of Agent Blue! Oh the Others singer climbed up the speakers a little which was kinda strange.

I also took this photo which I really like the way the streetlight have come out in a cool green colour:
