To this list can be added one [...]]]> http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/2010/05/26/gig-review-lcd-soundsystem-leeds-academy-27-04-2010/feed/ 0 http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/2010/05/25/news-round-up-week-ending-30-05-2010/ http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/2010/05/25/news-round-up-week-ending-30-05-2010/#comments Tue, 25 May 2010 22:51:35 +0000 Rob http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/?p=663 Welcome to a slightly new style of news, where we pick up some highlights of the current festival week.

I must admit to being in a bit of a dilemma. You see I had got myself all geared up to writing a long detailed review of this gig. In the end the band were onstage for barely 45 minutes, using this series of shows as a kind of showcase and warm up for their summer festival shows and thus are honing the set to fit around their allotted and anticipated time slots. And to be fair tickets were a bargain basement £8. Singer James explained that the songs are designed to flow into each other, creating an almost continuous wall of sonic delights. So did this bold claim bear fruit and did the band rise up to justify recent hype? We will see, but first off a wee bit about the band.]]> http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/2008/06/13/glasvegas-the-cockpit-leeds-13062008/feed/ 2 http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/2008/05/05/gig-review-the-pigeon-detectives-millennium-square-leeds-030508/ http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/2008/05/05/gig-review-the-pigeon-detectives-millennium-square-leeds-030508/#comments Mon, 05 May 2008 00:13:47 +0000 Rob http://www.peaceandlove.org.uk/?p=329 Music between the lager showers.

This should result in the remaining amount being warm, flat and pretty much undrinkable.

But no it saw the return of Wakefields favourites to Yorkshire. Now being far to big to play their home town they decamp to this appalling venue.
