Thou Shalt Not…

Thou shalt not attend an open mic and leave as soon as you done your shitty little poem or song, you self-righteous prick.

I think it’s a genius quote, attributed to the Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip’s classic Thou Shalt Always Kill and raised by forum regular Threadhead (real name undisclosed) when it comes to a review of this weekend’s House Of Cosy Cushions gig in Cleere’s.

When you hear someone say “tough crowd”, you can be forgiven for thinking it has something to do with Kilkenny, as quite possible is the case, it does.

I’m gathering my thoughts for a blog post on this, while I do, take a read of the review. You can understand where our frustrations, and those of gig goers, often lay.
