Following on from their support
acts, Brighton-born surf rockers The
Geisha Girls and garage-pop four-
piece TRASH who have travelled from
Derbyshire, the venue reaches it's
capacity and tickets sell out. It’s been
four months since what was meant to
be their last ever gig, however, the boys
from Fur are now back.
Upon taking to the stage, the
crowd erupts with applause and screams
from the band members’ friends and
families. Within seconds, the indie-pop
quartet are strumming away to their
most popular song Creature, as the crowd
nostalgically sing (shout) along to every
word. Amongst other fan favourites
such as Eyes and Can’t Be You, the
band banter back and forth about how
exciting it is to be back on the stage,
and follow this with a Beatles cover
and unfinished material that “doesn’t
have a title yet”.
As Fur finish their set with the
slow-yet-soothing One and Twenty,
each of the band’s members look
around at each other and, in-between
lyrics, express their love for one
another and admiration for the crowd.
Tonight had been the start of a new
journey for Fur, and if their comeback
gig is anything to go by, they’ll be at
the top within no time at all.
