Y&T Leeds Rio 23/10/07


The biggest crowd I've seen at the new venue, and the urge to return to Bradford was stronger than ever, no Bitter even though we are only a stones throw from Tetley's Brewery!!!!! Missed most of Tigertailz set, what we did catch was good they finished with Love Bomb Baby, which can be downloaded from "that Russian site" for 0.19CU.

On to the main event managed to get onto the lower floor and a good view considering the crowd. The intro to forever plays out, Y & T walk out, the intro stops, Y & T stand about, and after what seemed like an age start, with a song only about 3 people seemed to know. (I'm sure Mark will know it) all I can tell you was it had "Dangerous" in the chorus. Second song I knew, but can't remember I won't have put it as second song up though, 3rd song Lipstick and Leather and Leeds woke up. The rest of the set had the usual suspects including Midnight in Tokyo, Bar Room Boogie, Black Tiger, Summer Time Girls (sound good live) Mean Streak, Rescue Me, I believe in You, For Ever, Open Fire etc.

The second half of the set was much stronger that the first.

A few technical problems through the set, best bit was being left with just drum and bass at the end of the solo on Meanstreak. When fully working the sound was great.

A word of warning for Mark, Dave Meniketti was not well, some sort of cold/throat thing, (gobbing on stage, lovely) He carried on like a trooper and delivered a great performance, but just keep half an eye on the web site in case they cancel any shows!!




Not quite as good as last time say 8/10, after the slow start, but great value as they were on stage just over 2 hours
