I went to see Amanda Palmer the other night in Manchester. Was a really good gig, was in Manchester Cathedral. Beautiful place, not great for gigs though, too many pillars! Sound in the first proper song was terrible, WAAAAAAAAAAAY too much drums and not enough Amanda. The sound was sorted out after that and the gig was great, Amanda crowd-surfed and that was fun!
At the end of the gig she came back out for what should have been the encore but she explained that they had massively over run the venue curfew and couldn't do an encore but wanted to find some way to finish the gig. She told us to wait outside a side door and she'd see what she could do. About 200 of us waited and 10 mins later Amanda appeared with her Ukelele and did 4 more songs :-) Was my first AFP Ninja Gig. Here's a vid of Ukelele Anthem that I made.
Not the best vid though, was at a distance with my phone.
