The Tears

Went to see The Tears last night at Heaven in London. I'm sure everyone knows that this is Brett and Bernard from Suede's new band, and surprisingly enough they did sound pretty much like Suede. I have to say I was fairly underwhelmed, but then seeing a band when you don't know any of the songs is quite strange. They seemed underwhelmed by the reaction as well, at one point Brett said "it's like a tea party in here - come on!". Support band The Subways were pretty cool - maybe it's just more exciting when a band is new, like when Suede first appeared. That's your finest moment I guess, and unless you reinvent yourself like Radiohead, why would people keep listening? Anyway, Morrissey tonight at the Brighton Centre...
