Apparently, Wreckless Eric gets a bit nervous when he plays Leeds for historical reasons (as told to Marc Riley on his 6Music show<\/a>). On tonight evidence, he has no reason to at all – everyone loved his banter, his sonic guitar and musical box combo and his songs…old and new.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He started off by beckoning the crowd to come closer and as they shuffled forward he said “Fuckin’ ‘ell it looks like the Walking Dead” which had Sledge and I belly laughing and set the tone for the evening.\u00a0 3 songs in…..”I’m gonna do an old one now – one I still quite like – so those of a certain age with prostrate problems can get off early” before a great version of ‘Reconnez Cherie<\/a>‘. He goes off on wild musical tangents with ferocious strumming and it was no surprise that a string broke on his acoustic – he then proceeded to fix it (“I used to be able to this whilst still playing”) telling us a story of how he met Woody Woodmansey, one of his heroes…”and I got that fan thing where you become a twat and don’t know what to say so I says to him ‘You used to live in Woodmansey didn’t you’ and thought what the fuck did I say that for…” 10 minutes later the string is fixed and tuned up and “well for this next one I need my electric guitar” and he swaps them over.
\nBrilliant night – go and see him if you get the chance – highly recommended<\/p>\n
