Bleech @ the Hope & Anchor

Having been named as Wildblanket's tip to succeed in 2009, Bleech have a lot to live up to :-) Tonight it turns out to be a competition - battle of the bands if you will. It is however at the top end of this genre. Judging is by an industry panel and they seem to be someone from the BBC and someone from Artrocker. The panel point out the foolishness of such competitions (how would you choose if it were the Beatles and the Velvet Underground playing tonight), before choosing Bleech to proceed to the next round where they do not expect to meet the Beatles or Velvet Underground. In fairness I only saw one of the other bands and they were ok, so I can't really judge the standard of the competition, but Bleech played well and the experience they are gaining by playing several times a week, every week, is evident. It's nice to get out again.
