The Flaws have played a number of support slots for The Thrills throughout the country and Saturday night they did the honors again. They played to a packed Village and received an enthusiastic response from the crowd. The Flaws have just recently released their single " 1981 " and their debut album " Achieving Vagueness" is out on the 14th of September. Catch up with them on www.myspace.com/theflawsmusic              

The Flaws were the support act for The Thrills and the venue was already packed by the time they took to the stage. The audience gave them a warm reception as they belted out their songs including their new single "1981". Next up was The Thrills who went down a storm with the crowd. They played hits from their two albums "So Much For The City" and "Lets Bottle Bohemia" as well as tracks from their current Album "Teenager" including their classic new single "Nothing Changes Around Here". I got chatting to a guy who had come over all the way from Wales to the Village to see The Thrills. They finished with a great cover of "Dancing In The Dark" by Bruce Springsteen.

Arrived at the Crawdaddy nice and early for this one. By the time the Halves took to the stage the venue was stuffed. I liked their music, very atmospheric, deep and haunting. Check them out on www.myspace.com/ahomeforhalves Photo of one of the Halves's flight cases.              

I really enjoyed photographing Dark Room Notes, a four piece indie rock band fom Dublin. You should check out their excellent single "Love like Nicotine". They can be found on MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/darkroomnotesireland
