Silveruns Live Part2 - Teh Venue

The Venue was The Borderline appeared really small (not much bigger than the Cellar & made the Oxford Academy look like a stadium) with a small stage. However, there were really good acoustics & a massive sound system - it said something about the place with the amount of people that had ear plugs in - a good sign of things to come.

"The Borderline is a few minutes walk from Tottenham Court Road tube station. It is a cosy and atmospheric underground bar and venue, with a capacity of 275." apparently

Silversun Pickups overload!

OK, now for something a lot more recent - the Silversuns. This going to be a multi-part review, otherwise this will be an epic single posting!



So, where to begin?! This up-and-coming band, who have previously supported the Foos & Kaiser Chiefs on their last tours,few people have heard about & they are still relatively unknown to the majority. This suits them, however, as their gigs are more smaller, more personal & rather more fun!



I called them my band of '08 & I was really excited when Ents24 told me that they were coming to London!

They had 3 dates & I went for Borderline & got 2 tickets for me & Madd for a very reasonable £8.50 each & excitement began!

Coming up, the Venue, Support Act & Main Act & a picture or 2!

We continue...
