Shed 7

Popped up in conversation last weekend on a video chat with a friend as she had them on in the background. I quite liked some of their songs back in the day. She reminded me we'd seen them. Id totally forgot they were the support for Aerosmith at the then Nynex.
 
Several years ago, we were at our grandchildren's birthday party, and ended up chatting to the dad of one of the guests. We spent bit of time with him.

When the party was over, we mentioned it to Mrs Vienna's son-in-law.

"He’s the bassist in Shed Seven."

We had no idea.

Tom something. All four of the classic line up were known to be decent guys.

Great band. A big part of my indie clubbing years. Paul Banks is underrated.

Paul Banks is an absolute monster on guitar, so underrated.

I must have seen them about 25 times since they reformed back in 2007, mostly recently at their/my hometown gigs in the Museum Gardens in York.
They never fail to put on an amazing show; always sound note perfect and Rick is quite the frontman.

Despite their most recent album getting to No1, I wasn't quite fully taken in by it at first.
It's since grown on me, but thought Instant Pleasures back in 2017 was comfortably better.

Next seeing them in Coventry later this year, when they are doing Change Giver in full, should be another great evening. And then in Leicester on their winter tour.

Can also attest that they are super nice guys; no ego or anything like that, just genuine blokes riding the wave of success they are having 30 years since it all began.
 
They were (IMHO) very good on Sunday at Wythenshawe Park.
You’ll have to take my word for it because, like at the football, I’m not knobhead enough to video the fucking thing.

I’m watching them in Liverpool later this year. They were fantastic at the Parr Hall in Warrington last year.

Rick Whitter is a great frontman but unfortunately is a rag!
 
Think they were my first gig from memory at Empress Ballroom on something like a Tuesday before seeing Oasis the follow Saturday (I think)............

I saw them on that Aerosmith tour at the NEC. Support was originally supposed to be Kula Shaker but Crispian had spat his dummy out and stormed off stage a few days before. Shed 7 were a pretty decent replacement.
