Ok so its the day after the Albert
hall gig and I'm left with mixed thoughts I can't understand why
the boys played such a crap selection of there songs the set was
1. New song
2. Warning song
3. My Boat
4. New song
5. So FAR gone
6. New Song
7. Cause + Effect
8. Pushchair
I think that's all they played I know they only did half an hour. On
the plus side they sound really good without Jools with Gerard
staying on the acoustic all the time and the new songs sounded
amazing especially the one where Gerard sings really high. What I
cant understand is where were all the big songs were I know they
are limited now without no piano but still there was no Here's
One For You, Under a Sun, Still, Scars, Invention. I thought
they were fantastic and Gerard's voice was made for venues like
the Albert Hall. On a whole I'm not going to say Witness blew
embrace of the stage cos they didn't. The crowd pretty much
treated witness like a average support band with the usual
wanker shouting at Gerard to get his hair every other song which
finally resulted in Gerard saying "you're probably as bold
as fuck" to him. Yeah so I don't think witness gained many
fans from last nights gig but they certainly didn't have anyone
saying they were shit I just wished they played some better
songs although the new songs show real promise .
