This is the first small gig I went to & I think it was a pretty good introduction. I had only heard a couple of their songs when we went as I was accompanying my sister, who the tickets were a Christmas present for. I thoroughly enjoyed myself - we were able to use the fact that we're short to our advantage and make our way to the front to avoid getting crushed by the crowd and people let us do so with ease. We've found, since, that people are a lot friendlier at the smaller rock & metal gigs. There was also no barricade or anything similar in front of the stage so we were right against it at the corner so we were just underneath one of the main speakers (hence the angle of my photos).

It was almost this time last year that we saw them live, and now, they're nominated for two BRIT awards. I think that they're an amazing rock duo and even though I don't actively listen to their music, I'm looking forward to seeing their progression as two women of colour in a genre predominantly dominated by males.
