Black Hawk On Tour
All the way from the Isle of Wight on a mini UK tour for a Friday night gig at The Kings, surely they’re going to be good making all that effort?
Well, everyone hates it when I write well since they know I have something contorversial to write! Two sets of a very good selection of songs and seemingly well-played however their sound for me and several others was not at all well engineered, in fact it was so top-endy, very loud and shrill I had to spend most of the night out of the direct line of sound since it hurt my ears. I do know there was a bass player however his guitar was very rarely heard and the lead’s was only just there for the most important riffs.
Obviously some/many don’t have my standard of hearing since they seemed to be oblivious to this because lots of people were up, singing and dancing to all their covers, which, as I said, were a very good selection and generally well played. Certainly I would like to see this band again BUT they really would need to be sound-engineered by Balding Bloke who knows how to get the best out of the bands at The Kings.
