Went to see these last night and Im sorry to say that I was really disappointed
I was really looking forward to seeing them and also to see what Allison was going to be wearing, cos generally I think she looks pretty cool
Well she came out in what (to me) looked like the valance from her nans bed!!!
It was draped round her shoulders like a cape lol!!! Personally I thought she looked terrible
Im not doubting that they are musically very talented and professional and Allison has got a really nice voice, but their stage presence was abismal
I might aswell have been listening to them on a cd in my living room!!
I think it was the last but one song that she actually acknowledged that she was singing a live gig and there was an audience there to entertain!!!
I can think of 3 songs that they played that actually got me jigging my arse a bit! The rest of the time I was bored shitless! I even went to the loo for a break from the boredom!!
If it wasnt for the fact that they had some semi clad dancers to entertain you visually, I probably wouldnt have taken any pics!
So Im sorry Goldfrapp, as cool and as talented as you are, I wont be choosing to see you live again
But to end on a positive note
the support band were bloody briliant
They were called Hot Chip and they were fantastic! They reminded me of New Order come Kraftwerk lol!!
They had me dancing to every song that they played
They might not have been as tight as Goldfrapp, but their humour and stage presence more than made up for it
They would be someone that I would deffo see again
