Last person I saw in concert was 'Caribou' He has a fanatical following. Its not unusual for guns to be fired into the air (hopefully) when he is on.
Its certainly an experience!

His concerts can be quite dangerous as he's a sort of revolutionary icon and as we all know guns, revolution and alcohol don't mix very well...:lol:
mmmm...Alex the Caribou you're referring to is Dan Snaith (he of a Phd in mathematics), formerly 'Dan Snaith's Manitoba', who changed name due to an impending law suite from Handsome Dick Manitoba (former lunatic lead singer with the Destroyers).Quote:

Did you like the Lawrence Llewelyn Bowen frescos on the wall? A bit tacky IMHO but it is a great little venue none the less, and the staff are fairly relaxed ;)
