The Gaff, London – Welcome To Barbados, have a nice day

Another great video from the Hulk Smash Tour, this time show closer Welcome To Barbados, Have A Nice Day taken at The Gaff in London 24 April 2010 by Andy Parker for Black Match Records.

We absolutely loved The Gaff, it is one of the coolest places in London by a wide stretch and just around the corner from Emirates stadium which we will keep in future reference.

Tour Diary: The Gaff, London

The Gaff - Fucking Hostile

The penultimate show for the tour sees us in London. The Gaff, formerly the Kings Head on Holloway rd is an infamous rock bar. The drive up is OK, no delays today and we strip down some of the gear we have been carrying around all week as we are coming back into Brighton tonight ready for the finale at The Hydrant (Hare & Hounds) tomorrow night.

It’s an early start and the turn out is OK, some guys from Thrash Hits come down to check out the set, but they’re heading off to catch Bastions in Kings Cross straight after. We all hang and have a few beers before hand.It is roasting but the sound is probably the sweetest since Derby and PK’s new bell chimes through perfectly.

Damnas play after us and despite their guitarist just coming out of hospital a few days later, still with pins in his leg they absolutely tear the place up. Some seriously sick drum fills and a bass player that has fingers of steel.

Unfortunately, we have to leave after their set missing Terrathorn’s headline slot. We hit the road confident that we have slapped London in the face and will be back soon.

Tomorrow is the final show in Brighton. Time to draw some battle lines.
