Victoria And Jacob @ the Wilmington Arms
On my only previous visit to the Wilmington Arms I came in the car. Tonight I investigate routes to deepest Clarkenwell by public transport. It proves not too difficult, just 10 minutes walk from Chancery Lane. There may be other tubes slightly closer but I'm on the Central Line.
After running into Victoria and Jacob on Monday at the Dublin Castle, my plan to visit tonight's gig turned from probable to definite. In some ways they remind me of Reverse E but mainly because there are just two of them with lots of leads, which all looks rather complicated. The don't seem to be so bedevilled by sound problems as Reverse E, so maybe they aren't quite as complicated. They are distinctive and enjoyable, they are also pleasant to talk to afterwards.
The soundwoman here is surely the best dressed soundperson in London. That probably isn't saying much as I don't think there is any real competion. I think she is the only soundperson I have ever seen who actually looks fashionable. She seems to be successful with the sound as well.
