This was BY FAR the rowdiest Don Broco gig I have ever been to (and I’ve been to a lot)! The push up pits were bigger, songs louder and crowd a whole lot sweatier.
I wasn’t there for the majority of the support acts but what I saw of Coasts I really enjoyed and will definitely be downloading ‘Oceans’, which we all recognised. Where we had heard it I couldn’t tell you.
The atmosphere in Plug was incredible, everyone was excited to see whether Rob Damiani will be wearing his classic polo neck. (He wasn’t) (Sigh).
Whilst we were waiting, the guy behind me was talking to his friends about all my favourite bands (including Neck Deep) AND he was wearing a Moose Blood top. I highly considered turning around and befriending him as I found him so cool.
When Don Broco came on the lighting made them into silhouettes, which I thought was a nice touch and I was a massive fan of.
Something that I’ve never witnessed at a gig before (or ever in real life actually) was that a couple went on stage and got engaged! It was super romantic and I’m pretty sure they’ll remember that moment with fond memories. (Even if the fond memory was hugging Rob Damiani)
Playing songs from ‘Superlove’ to ‘Thug Workout’ (my personal favourite), Don Broco smashed every song as though it was their last. I didn’t expect anything less. And I won’t expect anything less when I see them next week at Brixton.
Until then Don Broco…
