I have wasted your time.

I have wasted your time because the joke in the picture ONLY WORKS IF THE BAND WAS CALLED PEEKING LIGHTS. But they are not. They are called PEAKING Lights.

So, as I said, I have wasted your time.

I'm sorry.

Anyways, Peaking Lights. You can read Peter Rea's review on Silent Radio here for an excellent description of the gig...in a minute...wait...come back...I haven't finished here...

What you should also know is this:

- Peaking Lights were brilliant, despite some VERY abrupt endings.
- A man who had really bad wind stood in front of me briefly but then disappeared. Hopefully to change his trousers.
-  One really annoying bloke pulled out his best Bez on Diazapam dance moves and sucked his cheeks in so far his face was almost inside out.

I'd well recommend checking out Hookworms too, they were great. Like a psych bastard offspring of the Stooges and The Fall crossed with the sound of two tramps fighting over the last bottle of White Ace.
