Got my tickets, Franz in the Pav is going to be mental!
Franz were flying - Alex Kapranos seemed to be really impressed with the Pavilion too and that fed through into the set. Happy with the amount they played from the first album, was afraid the set might be heavy on the 3rd and forthcoming one.
And yeah, "the Chevin" is one of the worst names I've ever heard for anything.
Yeah i was expecting a good few new tracks,thought that was partly why they were doing this tour(along with warming up for the Summer dates)from what i made out there was only 2 new songs(both good)and it was as much as 8 off the first album which was a big (welcome)surprise,i loved every minute of it,i met them afterwards and they were sound as the proverbial pound,very nice guys
