One of my favourite gigs ever was 2 years ago today and it was Tim's first proper gig with Kasabian. The gig started and by the time they reached the Days' outro, I knew he's fitting perfectly. This is the first pic of him I've taken (more pics here)
Except Tim, one of the best things about this gig was that we were allowed to queue inside - it's a huge leisure centre with cafes and bars, all nice and warm. It was the lovely part of the 2013 tour when they kept bringing back all the Empire songs and played Black Whistler. Praise You was special, Tom gestured Serge to go over to him and sang it to Serge's face. You can't see Tom at all in the first pic - he's behind Serge - but I'm posting it for the looks on Chris' and Gary's faces
They also played Reason Is Treason which was gorgeous -this is pip's video. A funny thing happened before the gig when the band came out to talk to us and I asked Chris about the soundcheck and he was all 'we're playing a song we haven't played for 10 years'. I freaked out completely and for some reason decided it's Ovary Stripe and asked him whether it is and he told me it's Reason Is Treason lol. The best part? I couldn't even convince him that they've been playing it a lot, I tried to remind him that they were playing it with Mothman at all the 2010 festivals and Chris was all 'never happened'.
My personal highlight was getting Ian's drumstick - one of these is mine now
