Good night all round, the support acts got a good mosh pit going and by the time the Exploited came out everyone was involved! Cheep beers and got to meet some of the performers

We want you to come back with full band ASAP and more tshirts (especially for small women ;-)) hubby got a tshirt but you'd run out for Auckland sales - we were completely blown away by the experience - LOVED your choice of opening band. Loved the intimacy of the gig at Kings Arms (because I got photos with the band members while they were wondering around off stage). Please please come back with full band in 2016!!! We love you!!! Lost song part 2 is my fav and you started off with it ❤️ one of the most romantic nights I've ever had with my husband - THANK YOU!!!

Apart from the embarrassing kiwi banter, I enjoyed the night, never stood in a double snaked queue outside the kings arms before. A very mixed crowd, you had the ominous black clothes of all the dedicated /M\etallers and then this other bunch (majority) of what I imagine to be people who appreciate ANATHEMA's newer material and not so much of their doom metal history. As for Anathema's performance, it was really intriguing to hear acoustic adaptations of some of their songs like fragile dreams even though they did mostly newer material. Untouchables was amazing , Danny was legendary working all his magic, loops and percussion and even snuck in a couple of covers. would have loved to hear older material, some of which I think could easily be done acoustically. Great Performers, invoking audience participation and entertaining a packed house... great show.
Five questions about the building, not the gig

404 concerts logged here and not one answer yet. Five taps - the place itself, then the sound, the sightlines, getting in and out and what the bar charges - and this page starts telling people what King's Arms is actually like to stand in. There's room to write about it as well - one entry each, added to over the years.
