The Defects from sunny Belfast are in my record collection (with their first 7″ from 1981) and i never considered them favourites – though some of me mates swear they can pull a great show. That swearing (and the fact they where paired with Sheep on A Tree) got me down to the Hafenklang on a warm weekday, thanks to moving house that location is now only a short stroll downhill from me home.<\/p>\n
From the start it was not to be a full house but more a meeting of the old friends and Blackpool pilgrims – a mere 50 people made it and thus the large room downstairs felt a wee bit empty.<\/p>\n
Kick off early with Sheep on A Tree and this time round they where not that together – some hickups and some speed issues (drums = full speed, guitar\/bass – normal speed) and Hake on vocals more mumbling than shouting.<\/p>\n \n
