[the picture is actually of the support band, and taken in London not Manchester, but I liked it a lot]

Finch were great last night, easily better than the first two times I saw them, although that probably has something to do with them being in a smaller, more intimate venue. I hadn’t been to a gig for ages (I can’t think of one since Muse @ wembley almost a year ago), and seeing the passion and energy of the crowd and band reminded me why I used to enjoy live music so much. The ages of the crowd was surprisingly high as well, no pre-teen emo kids here, which I assume was because Finch split up in 2006 and haven’t been hyped much since their return.
