A new venue for me, a big pub in Kilburn High Road. Surprisingly they have some lights. The stage is in front of a plateglass window onto the street. It's weird watching people gigging with a tableaux of London playing behind them (well it's only a few buses going up and down the high road really).
Pussy Cat of the Johnsons has played a few solo gigs in Basingstoke I think, but she doesn't normally venture up to London. She tells me her gigs in Basingstoke can be a bit drunken (as far as she remembers) but in London she needs to remain sober enough to catch the train, and to get off at Basingstoke too.
It's a bit different to the Johnsons, but overall she does a good show. I'm surprised to find that Spoon (Bass in the Johnsons) is playing here with another band, called the Germans. He also joins Pussycat on one number.
The Germans are a three-piece and do an enjoyable set. They move around a fair amount, so I take some pictures.
