Kate Nash doesn’t quite make it to Kent

Quadmyre at the Beacon Court Tavern

I really need to stop writing posts that have Kate Nash in the title, or else I risk sounding like someone slightly obsessed or something. I promise you this is the last one for now though. Anyway, despite the previous post, Kate Nash didn’t actually make it down to Kent to play in the Electric Gardens heats. Which sucks for her, and sucks for me as I didn’t even get to see her play once, let alone at the festival. I did however manage to catch a glimpse of her when she arrived at the Beacon Court Tavern, even if this was unfortunately twenty minutes after the competition had ended. She was hanging around outside for a little bit afterwards too, and I would have gone and spoken to her if I had, you know, a spine.

On a more positive note, I did get to see a fantastic little band called Quadmire, who deserved to win the competition. They performed solidly, had some awesome songs and had a nice, almost 60s like sound, complete with harmonising, giving them a completely different edge to most of the local type bands that I end up seeing. The lead singer was really pleasant too, although I wish I’d taken him up on his offer to write down their website address as I can’t find the bloody thing now. So if anyone can find their Myspace page or whatever, that would be very cool. Edit: Found them at last. The name is Quadmyre, not Quadmire, which explains not being able to find them. Stupid Beacon Court website.

I was also going to do a regular post type thing this evening, but I’m absolutely exhausted, so it’s going to have to wait until tomorrow.

    Mate you should have spoken to her, she’s the most down to earth person I have ever met. I went to a gig of hers last month in Shoreditch and she is incredible live.
    Definately get to Electric Gardens though, if you miss her there you’ll be kicking yourself!

    Keep up the good blogging….
