The Darkness?
Some time ago Janet laid her hands on the only photograph that ever seems to have been taken while I had long hair, and this "mysteriously" found its way into circulation by email...
The Darkness in Milwaukee on March 26th, kicking off their first US tour, were pretty magnificent. When I bought the tickets a few months ago it was for a small club, a few hundred capacity. Eventually it was a sell-out of a 3800 capacity hall. They are getting pretty big over here and have sold out the entire tour. Things happen fast, it's only about a year since Daniel alerted me to their presence as a completely unsigned band with a good live reputation. It was a young audience, I must have been one of the oldest people there. Yes, it seems like the great wheel of rock is turning once again... the torch is being passed to a new generation.
Anyway, if ever there were any doubt that The Darkness were taking the mickey, it is now completely dispelled. They are for real. And Justin is a true rock star.
