The London music scene seems to be on fire at the moment! I can't remember a time when there were more gigs to go to... In the last 10 days I've seen:
- Crystal Castles
- Danny Rapscallion of The Rapscallions
- Cardboard Radio
- Rosemary
- A jam session at the Macbeth
- Miss Odd Kid
- Middleman
- Sportsday Megaphone
- Metronomy
- Scout Niblett
- Bonnie Prince Billy
One interesting thing I noticed while putting together this list is that it didn't even occur to me to try and find the bands' own websites... I went straight to MySpace. MySpace has become the de facto standard for music urls - no mean feat. A lot of things about MySpace annoy me but I can't argue with how simple its made it for anyone and everyone to get themselves online.
Incidentally though - everyone should check out Metronomy. They're absolutely ace!
