The Automatic

Went to see the automatic the other night at our SUBU nightclub - The Old FireStation, and it was a bit of a let down. I saw them there in my first year, got squashed at the front of the crowd and may have indulged in a little bit of the mosh pit, but this time round I sat on the side with a beer and enjoyed the show.

I say enjoyed, really it was a bit lacklustre. They were obviously reeling from the loss of Adam Pennie, the scream-y shout-y one, and this affected their performance. He was a performer and I felt a little bit sad for the smaller crowd who had gathered to see the band this time round.

But for the good points, and there were a couple. With no Pennie breaking into Gold-Digger, it was up to former Yourcodenameis:milo frontman Paul to stand in his spot, and quite frankly that wasn't good enough.

But enough about that, my full review from the gig will be online soon enough, just as long as I get pictures up in time!

Catcherlater,

Jamie :)
