Royal Treatment Plant @ Madame JoJos

There are several gigs on tonight, but the main alternatives are playing tomorrow and Saturday, so I will see them then. Madame Jojos has a nice stage and good lights. Strangely Axe Kid who I saw yesterday are playing again tonight. I have a feeling there must be some significance in the serendipity that has brought me to see Axe Kid again. So I treat them seriously photographically, which is easy in the good lights of Madame Jojos. They are visually exciting (vivid) and worth attention. I am not so convinced of the long-term merits of their music, but their live act is spirited and enjoyable.
The Royal Treatment Plant are launching a single tonight, although its only available for download so I doubt that I'll be spending any money (being of the cd generation I buy music on cds). They certainly have some good tunes and are a class act. The lead singer PP is quite manic with lots of head-shaking, which I always enjoy as a challenge photographically. Give them a listen, they are sort of jangly.
Although Madame Jojos doesn't do proper beer they do at least have a special offer on their mediocre bottles. So I can 'enjoy' a bottle of Stella for only £2 a go.Much better lighting than last night, which is what you'd expect from Madame Jojos.
