OK, I'm now getting tired. Long drives
are taking their toll, and it's all I can manage to merely watch the band.
Which is a shame as they shredded the place. This was the location of their
first UK gig as Aimee pointed out, and this time you look like you're having
fun. As they were.
A few people were chanting for Coal Chamber
just before HWP started, which seems a bit dumb. Like you know they ain't
gonna be on yet. Still, I think HWP silenced those people, and had them eating
out of their hands by the end. And the number of people wearing HWP shirts
around me before the gig even started is proof enough. This tour is seeing
the passing of the band from a relatively well kept secret to public knowldege
and acceptance. Indeed, when I interviewed them after, they said they didn't
know what had happened in the 3 or 4 weeks they'd been away, but the interest
had trebled or quadrupled. And still the country awaits the album. Some predictions
for 1998. Best band, best female singer, sexiest female, best drummer. You
can guess who I reckon people are going to vote for. The start of something
big.
