Snowy Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 (edited) Oldest son had a gig tonight at the Shed in Leicester (where Kasabian were discovered )So I went along as roadie. Turns out it was a battle of the bands gig, with votes at the end, and only the winner gets paid! And his band won! They are excellent - son is drummer, but also did lead vocals on one track and backing vocals on the others. So amazing to see him up there on stage - felt very proud! I did manage to get a short video, but only just realised it's not a good idea to take videos in portrait style as you can't twizzle them round OK - here he is, bit obscured by the lead guitarist but it really is the drummer singing Edited April 2, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 OK, I've managed to get it onto Youtube, it was too big to get onto Photobucket I've added the link to the first post, but may as well add it here as well Needs to be viewed on a laptop so's you can turn it sideways.
