Review of Wolfgang Flur (Ex-Kraftwerk) + B-Movie
Great night of electronica and nostalgia. It was my first visit to the Flapper and the Seventh Wave Festival and I was not disappointed I remembered B- Movie from my youth and it was lovely to see them eventually and they mingled with the crowd later a smashing band. First we had Ten Ten a one man wave of electronic grooves excellent. Wolfgang Flur was awesome great video show to accompany the music to. I shall return!

Review of Wolfgang Flur (Ex-Kraftwerk) + B-Movie
I travelled down from Chesterfield really to see B- Movie as I'm a B- movie fan not Wolfgang Flur...so only watched B- movie who were superb astonishingly atmospheric, Steve Hovingtons vocals glided effortlessly through the array of songs old and new... Impressive and left me delighted.
I found the venue as I imagined it to be, slightly dark with a rocky feel about it, I had a couple of beers before the concert in the upstairs bar, no complaints about the beer and price was reasonable. The down stairs concert room is intimate not oversized. There is a complaint though, the food for sale, limited to pizzas only, a fiver for a large pizza box sadly upon opening the box I found a small pizza less than half the size of the box it's served in, the taste.... Hmmm I would imagine the box would taste better.
Review of And Also The Trees + The Humdrum Express
And Also The Trees never fail to create incredibly atmospheric gigs and their latest album showcased here is another superb collection of songs. The music remains intense with filmic qualities and Simon's poetic lyrics evoke situations with passion. Great drummer too!

Review of Jeffrey Lewis & Los Bolts
Another great and varied performance from Jeffrey and band. From old to new his lyricism and indie folk delivery makes you smile and feel completely engaged. Venue was just right as well - small and intimate.
