This has to be one the best gig's I've been to in years, not just musically, but also on a personal level, Ed, Sal and Rob have proved to me that good old fashioned guitar, bass and drums are the reason that I play an instrument and that rock n roll shouldn't turn you into an idiot, and hopefully this will be one of many gigs smash will be doing. Man, when these guys took to the stage, it was like they never took a break from it, they were like three kings returning from a far away land and played like they had one hour to live.
COOKIE CLUB, Winbush Road, Hitchin, Hertz, England (11 Sep 2004)
The set list, Bang Bang Bang, Barrabas, S.B.C, Reflections, Oh ovary, Take your breath away, In 2 you, Lady love, Drugs again, What goes on, Loves not a fire, Self abused and Real surreal, then come back for an mind blowing encore of Revisited no3, Kill somebody and Shame.
The whole night was like going back 10 years or so, I'll never forget it in a hurry.
Nows the best time to catch them, while they're still hot, you'll rediscover why you went to see smash in the first place. Mind you I never got to see them the first time round, but hell did I make up for lost time.
See you at the next gig.

Yup, Sat 11th Sept was the first time I'd seen the lads live for 10 years!! 10 years!! makes me feel like a real old git. They played well (altho I do think Ed's mic should've been turned up) and it was kinda touching that they all seemed to be really chuffed to be playing together again, which made the gig all the more special for me. Very nostalgic all round.
