Samiam and The Casting Out (ex Boysetsfire)
Lido, Berlin - 20th October 2010
I nearly didn't get to take these photos. Being brash and slightly inebriated, I turned up to this gig that I'd especially flown out for as there were no UK dates with my camera only to be told I couldn't take photos. After pleading like a little girl with some security dude I was let off on the promise I wouldn't take photos; I lied.
Consequently through my own drunken actions I spent 15 Euro on a large t-shirt (which is a completely separate and equally drunken story) and A Death In The Family patch and two pins. I thought the ex Boysetsfire band were called this and keep making this mistake (I'm an idiot). I now have a patch and two pins of a band I've never heard and am 3 Euro poorer for it.
Other good things about this show include Jason Beebout (Samiam singer) giving me a beer during the encore, getting the only set-list going, the disabled dude at the front having the most awesome time, Merry; the French dude I met who like me had travelled especially for the show and not to forget the Samiam bassist turning up five songs in because he was in a hotel room with his girlfriend.
