Kaiser Chiefs at Music Box

I would usually have a field day with a support band called 'Hockey' but I'm not one some giving someone stick for having a shite name... Hockey are another band who play a watered down version of 'Combat Rock' and don't do it very well...

Credit to Kaiser Chiefs for continuing their tour without the stricken Peanut, who was left in Brazil (time for a name change methinks...) recovering from appendicitis. KC coped pretty well as a four-piece (a roadie stood in to play a few keyboards parts here and there) and the stripped down lineup sounded even more like Blur than usual... I hadn't heard any of the new songs except the one that (groan) goes 'what do you want for tea? I want crisps..' but they sound like a cross between 'Sunday Sunday' and 'Eton Rifles' - in other words, the same as every other song they've ever done...
