Paisley Music Fest may 22nd, Scotland

Another day on the road with a four hour drive to Paisley just outside of Glasgow. We were playing at the student union there for a music festival called F**k Thursdays that was to have a load of bands playing in two rooms and our good selves later in the evening. We went for a walk around the town, there was some beautiful old buildings but we didnt have long so we strolled back to the venue. There was bands and beer everywhere, we got our rider which was a crate of carlsberg and a bottle of vodka and settled in to party and watch some bands. We got to watch Wired Desire and a couple of others but before we knew it it was show time, we did a half an hour set including a striptease to Cherry Pie, a chair routine to Kiss by Prince, my belly dance to After Dark and many more. Everyone was very vocal which was nice, Scotland and Wales are always great crowds, they really get into.We hung about for the rest of the evening and watched the couple of headling bands that were on after us including a very surreal set from the Red Hot Chili Pipers.. i expected RHCP covers with bag pipes but sadly there was no chilis tunes but they did throw in some rock anthems for the crowd who was going mental and jiggin all over the place. We got home around 5am and crawled in to bed a little worse for wear for a couple of hours because back to Wales again tomorrow!!
