HW: St Austell Coliseum Gig

[IAN ABRAHAMS]

First time I had seen HW in about six years was on Friday and it was great!  Relieved to see a pretty reasonable turnout in what is a fair sized venue. Nik was on good form - emerging through the audience playing his sax during Motorway City.  Set seemed very fresh after the length of my absence from HW gigs, except that Assassins of Allah & Ejection are getting pretty tired.

The most interesting thing was Ron's performance, which was excellent for the first half but just became so over the top towards the end as to be irritating.  

So, as a comparison with the previous gigs I'd seen: not as good as Black Sword or the Space Bandits album tour but the best I'd seen bar these.

Thanks to Neil (didn't get his surname) from the BOC-L who came up for a chat following my pre-Gig posting.  Any fan-grouping can appear a bit of a closed shop when your new and not in the loop so his friendly "hello" was much appreciated.
