Gaslight Anthem- Great Expectations
“Great expectations, we had the greatest expectations.”
29th Sep- Now the gap year is coming to an end and I’ve begun packing these memories of heroes and pioneers into the back of my mind and there’s little else to do now except get another round in at the bar, or in todays case have a drink with members of Smokey Bastard and Johnny at Nagshead! We had a good laugh and I gave them the Wasters new EP as a goodbye present.
Me and Johnny stayed in Reading and since it was Wednesday we thought we’d go to our final Deja Vu open mic night. After a whole year of Mark Barnes songs about skeleton keys and “excuse me mate, got any marrows? I’ve goooot ten marroooows”, today’s Deja Vu was a breath of fresh air with people covering Frank Turners “Reasons not to be an Idiot” and Gaslight Anthems “Great Expectations”, two hugely influential musicians in the past year.
