Kate Nash @ Hammersmith Apollo 11/Mar
Back when I booked a ticket to Kate Nash in March I was quite excited about it, but went for the circle - can’t explain why, but didn’t feel like standing down the front as I had done for Nerina Pallot and WsH.
The Black Kids were excellent. The sound wasn’t great, and this might have contributed to me thinking they were doing a cover of Float On by Modest Mouse for a minute or so. Really enjoyed their set and will hunt out a few tracks.
Kate Nash came on stage just after 9pm and started with Pumpkin Soup, which is one of my favourite songs from the current album. The set moved on to some slower, guitar led songs which were ok, but with the poor acoustics and sound quality (as commented by many when leaving last night, and on blogs this morning) these were somewhat lost and difficult to enjoy.
Overall it was quite good, and Kate Nash is excellent, but on a personal level I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would.
