First Aid Kit at Eventim Apollo, Hammersmith

This was a complete contrast to the tiny gig we went to at Green Note last week. First Aid Kit, whom none of our friends seem to have heard of, filled the relaunched Eventim Apollo, which has a capacity of around 5,000. One of the highlights was ‘Ghost Town’ performed without microphones in this massive venue! Another was a cover of Jack White’s ‘Love Interruption’.

Here are a couple of long telephoto shots from our seats towards the rear of the circle:

And some YouTube videos – ‘My Silver Lining’ from Stay Gold and ‘Ghost Town’ from The Big Black and the Blue.

We ate out at Kattara on King Street beforehand – the Mezza at this Lebanese Restaurant was excellent and the service friendly.
