Hot Chip warm up gig Birmingham 20th Feb

2 Bears 2nd album is just pure bliss. Really really excellent album!

Yep, I like the first album, but I enjoy the 2nd one much more. Especially the last song.

[bamber]

Buenos Aires 'n PEPSI. Make of that what you will, I love this band.

I am too pissed to post correctly here, but they were excellent tonight!

[hurdy]

My ears aren't working properly

[eastynh]

What was the new material like?

[Mezhyp1]

What was the setlist looking like? Can't wait to see them again

[hurdy]

1hr 15min.

Three new tracks including huareche lights.

From what I can remember,and in no particular order... Over and over, boy from school, flutes, let me be him, one night stand, i feel better, ready for the floor, look at where we are.

Something like that. You get the flavour. Any errors? I've been listening to them all day and drinking for some of it. So good. Sarah Jones was awesome.

Huarache Lights was ace, track called Futures similar and also good.

Title track Why Make Sense dropped in the middle of the encore, very guitar based and didn't sit that well with the set being finished by Look at Where We Are.

That's the only minor gripe though. So, so good.

Roll on May, can't wait :-)

[FuzzyDunlop]

Gutted I couldn't afford may. Hopefully they will be headlining the WH in June

[willsnewman]

My ears are still ringing. The set list was top notch, couldn't have been much better.

[amfy]

I loved it too. My profile pic is of me at Hot Chip at Glastonbury 2010 - I was much the same last night!

I really liked why make sense. It was a nice departure from the usual hot chip stuff. Really not bothered by Look at where we are though, it's a bit of a damp squib.

[hurdy]

That's what I was getting at in a rather ham-fisted way. Thought Why Make Sense was perfect for the encore, good to have all out guitars. Would have preferred them to end on that cover of Nothing Compares 2 U from way back when.

That cover is great!

[stuartbert two hats]

How were the vocals?

[bennyhana22]

Vocals were very good from Alexis. And yes, hurdy, Why Make Sense sounded really good. With an even better sound system that will be huge. Just hope that their Glastonbury set is not in the middle of a nasty clash for me.

Oh, and yes, Sarah Jones was bloody brilliant. Live drumming to that type of dancey-pop stuff is not easy. She is tight as a tight thing.

Huh, Nice, New Song
