Went to see Robots in Disguise at a fanclub acoustic gig in the Hawley Arms in Camden. (I've never been in a fanclub for anything before and think I'm too old to start now but I wanted to go see them live with my friends so never mind...) I went with some people I know from elsewhere online and it was great to see them again too. The Robots were really lovely, they did a dj set and signed autographs, posed for photos with fans etc. (I didn't get either because I just don't like the idea of asking for anything from people just because they're famous, but the others got some and were happy).
I wasn't sure how their stuff was going to work acoustically, and it was a bit different but still quite good. It was a small venue and it was really quite an intimate kind of atmosphere. We staked out a spot right at the front so we had a good view. Sue and Dee seemed really relaxed and there was a bit of banter with each other and the crowd. They played about nine songs, some old, some off the recent album and a couple of new ones from their future album which was interesting. My highlight was I Don't Have a God which I tried to record but the sound was all distorted from being too close and my friends who are better at taking videos than me haven't uploaded that yet, so here's Boys instead:
