in raptures
so that is a rubbish title. but it does go some way to conveying how much i am in love with the rapture and what an absolute joy it was to shoot them.
i have had their new album (pieces of the people we love) on very high rotation, stating my love for them daily to anyone that would listen. so you can understand how much i was looking forward to this gig.
the lads started off a little slowly, and i was wondering if the show was going to live up to my high expectations. all these fears were dispelled but the middle of the second track.
their set included a nice mix of tracks from the new album as well as the "classics" from echoes and loads of the almost trademark cowbell. i have never seen koko erupt like it did when they played house of jealous lovers. scenes of rapturous pandemonium - sorry....
the rest of the rapture set can be found on flickr.
