Last night we went to see We Are Scientists at [Club NME] in Birmingham. This takes place at the medicine bar down at the custard factory. I've never actually been down there, I don't go down digbeth too often. It is actually quite nice down there, I was surprised. My past experiences of digbeth, past the bull ring that is, haven't been great but these have normally involved the coach station. Anyway the gig! It was ok. The room was well suited and there weren't many people there. The first band, who I have no idea what they were called since I don't think they mentioned their name (good publicity lads!) weren't bad. They were entertaining, though I did have the feeling they must have taken huge influences off the Strokes and the Chilli Peppers. We Are Scientists were good. I'm looking forward to seeing them again at Reading this weekend. If I do, then it will be the first time I have seen two bands within a week! Scary thought really, but they are good. Probably my favourite song of the moment is by them "Nobody Move Nobody Get Hurt". They were very entertaining and I'd like to get hold of more of their music.

The only problem I have with Club NME is the bands are on late as it is supposed to be more like a club but it doesn't really turn into a club night and it means that you have an expensive journey home. Luckily for me last night - I got a lift!
