Last Gang at BodegaDate: Thur 14th Feb Time: 21:00 Thursday FEB 14th: LAST GANG RADAR Valentines day 'Feel The Love' special: 9pm - 3am Advance tickets £3 (Cheap drinks and DJ JoHELL spinning the best in NEW music FIRST, all the way 'til 3am) Described on their MySpace as "Indie/Pop/Alternative" they are a four-piece from Wakefield signed to Columbia/Sony. "Next up are Last Gang, and although their musical influences are worn predominantly on their sleeves, their whole presence displays an air of confidence that merely eschews the 'when' not 'if' to their arrival into the big league. While their potential was evident six months ago, one felt that they may have been swept away with the tide of bands steeped in classic British post-punk tradition. But, of course, there is one major sticking point that Last Gang have over most of their rivals in that every song could be a single in its own right. From the opening 'Show Me' and Kristian Walker's and Matt Smith's Jones-to-Strummer call-and-response vocal stylings on the tale of drunken shenanigans that is 'Beat Of Blue' - a ska-laced punk-pop ditty that simply begs to be shouted at football stadiums from Peterhead to Portsmouth - Last Gang could very well be the last line in classic anglicised day-in-the-life summaries for quite some time."
