Nearly missed the gig as my flight from Azerbaijan was late and made me miss my connection in Frankfurt….here my little review and pictures from an ace night.
Sometimes it is really nice going to a gig where you don’t know what to expect. Friday was such an occasion and despite being so knackered after a long trip back from Azerbaijan, that I wished I went for seats instead, I could add the Troxy in East London to my list of favorite venues. Similar to Brixton Academy, Hammersmith Odeon and the …

Them Crooked Vultures took what may, or may not be their last UK  bow last night at a triumphant finale at London’s Brixton 02 Academy.  As Josh Homme noted, it brought the band full circle as it was here last August that the Vultures first announced themselves at a low key support slot to the Arctic Monkeys.
