I do think it's criminal when bands so deserving are under supported. I guess one has to appreciate the reward of the experience of actually being bothered to attend and pity all the bemoaners that sit on their asses whinging. My First Tooth were brilliant tonight and I'd have gladly watched them play a set 200% more in duration than they did and still encouraged an encore! I enjoyed the extra depth and richness the additional instrumentage brought to tracks that I knew and also appreciated how vocally it was still very much Ross and Sophie. There is a lot of great musicianship within My First Tooth and I think this comes across well when they appear to almost play "musical chairs" with various instruments. Speaking to a couple of MTF members after, they said they enjoyed playing the gig and performing with each other despite the meagre crowd (I counted about 12 in attendance, including the venue staff and support act). Fingers crossed that Ross' voice will continue to recover further from it's recent hiatus and that the rest of their EP release supporting tour is supported more healthily as they're only 4 dates in. Good luck My First Tooth and do be assured that when you're next in West Yorkshire you will have an audience of at least 2 (excluding venue staff!). Gosh, how very true.
