Supersuckers und Rumours

‘How’s everyone doing, we’re the Supersuckers and we’ve come here tonight to rock the house’ was the first thing that sounded over the incredible sound system in the black out before the lights came up and the rock band ran on stage with their arms in the air to take their positions with their instruments. Although the band are relatively cocky, having dubbed themselves the ‘greatest rock band in the world’, they almost justify it with the incredible and enthusiastic set they played.
The show opened with Dan Bolton performing an epic guitar solo whilst Eddie Spaghetti called over the top to the audience introducing the band and their set before they launched straight into She’s My Bitch/Drinkin’ N Drivin’. They immediately had the audience on their side, and it seemed like everyone was long time fans, singing along to every track, and dancing around in appreciation for the band.
Although the vocal performance wasn’t as strong as it once might have been, the instruments were solid, and the was that the guitars and drums intertwined and also battled with each other was exciting to see in a live performance. Their improvisations were also great to witness, and it was awesome to see something live that you can’t experience on the recording studio albums.
