    Ist time ever seeing BSP, so did not know their songs well or anything about them really. Went purely out of curiosity as gig was local to me and I like a good concert....been to many over the years.
    Anyway, I was quite taken with them and enjoyed the blend of brass and indie which did remind me of Arcade Fire at times with the wall of sound. As this was a so called homecoming gig I was quite surprised at the lack of comunication with the audience. They didn't say much at all and to finish on a really poor song was a shame as there had been some great tunes earlier. Venue was great. If there had been a good rapport I would have rated this gig 8/10, but as it was an average 6/10.

    From beginning to end it was a beautiful and awesome assault on the senses. I saw them at Kendal Calling 2 years ago but this was of a completely different calibre. I loved it and the brass element with Fodens Band just increased the power of the sea by massive proportions. My favourite moments were hearing Machineries of Joy, A light above descending and The land Beyond. Fabulous!
