I wish I was!
The first one was amazing but had to travel over 200 miles to be there...
If it was on a weekend I would do it again though!

Not long got back! ;D The evening started at 8 (said half 7 on flyer but were late in setting things up) we had about an hour to wonder round the small art show whilst listening to a dj spin tunes and mingle. To be honst i ashamedly kept myself to myself. Carina was mingling with people too amongst nipping outside for cigarettes! About 9 the dj faded the music and we were treated to a short 4 song acoustic set. There couldn't've been any more than about 20 people in the room all stood in a semi circle so we could all see her. She started with Downslow complete with drum taps on the body of the guitar. Next was an awesome version of How I See It. The crowd seemed very subdued and just kept applause to a minimum. I had my camera, but due to the nature of the intimacy of the show, i preferred not to take any pictures at all. Next came what seemed like an impromptu Cover of "Hot Stuff" you know, the disco classic "looking for some hot stuff baby..." I got the impression it was spur of the moment due to her stopping half way through forgetting the words, then carrying on by humming then gave a very powerful classic Carina end to the song. Also the fact i was stood by her fella (??) and he was giggling as she looked at him! Lastly came a stunning rendition of "Ready To Confess". Not much to be said about that, it came complete with the screams and wails at the end! She then thanked us for attending and the dj returned to the decks. I was hoping to speak to her after the show as she continued to mingle, but due to unforseen circumstances at home, i had to leave swiftly! Full Setlist: Downslow How I See It Hot Stuff Ready To Confess Sorry there's no pics guys!!!  |
