I was vaugely familiar with Egglestone & Falkous's former band mclusky but I had been sleeping on Future of the Left. A friend had asked if I wanted his spare ticket. It was a chance to see what these guys were up to and to also catch STNNNG again. Have you ever felt like you were in the right place at the right time? I'm so glad I attended this show. The band was fine with it being shared online as long as it was a good representation of the show and that I believe it is. Being so close to the PA it's hard to not make a good tape at the Turf unless you're taping a folk show with bar patrons talking over the music. It's pretty impossible to talk over FOTL. Go see these guys and buy a record if you get the chance.
