I saw Evan play a fairly low key gig in Stockholm a few weeks back. He was
in much better form that what I remember last time. The crowd were just fans
and everyone who wanted to get right up front and then chat to him later
did.
He'll be back in a month or so, it seems, to do a proper big gig. I'll
defitinely go again, in fact, I'd like to do the support if I only knew his
promoter and/or manager.
I like the new record too, a little more lo-fi if you compare it to the
Atlantic Years, but always good songs.
Cheers,
Joe
