We Can Be Heroes

Monday blues are in full effect. There is not one main catalyst for this; there are many. I’m not a massive fan of Monday’s at the best of times. It’s something that you need to mentally prepare yourself for, as if you don’t, you end up feeling like I am now.

Yet, that’s beside the point. The point is that this weekend was a pretty good one, and that’s the reason that I’m now trying to fit as many carbs into me as humanly possible. Energy is something that seems to have left the building, and I would quite like some back, please.

On Saturday I checked out a band called The Heroes, who played at The Dublin Castle in Camden. They’re a four piece hailing from Leicester whose influences include the likes of The Jam, The Clash and The Libertines.

Now, it takes a lot for band to go into foreign territories and win over the crowd, especially when they are not established. We all know that proper music fans are just about as fickle as they come. But I thought that these boys put on a solid performance. They’re not groundbreaking by any stretch of the imagination. They just play good quality rock & roll music. Having known nothing about them before the gig, they provided a pleasant surprise.

However, one of my mates wasn’t that impressed. He started giving people haircuts outside to pass the time.
