Primal Scream played the Olympia last night for their first night of a two night run, promoting their new studio album ”Come Ahead”
The show sold out so fast they had to add another night due to demand.
If you’re on the fence about going tonight…I’d say just do it before all the tickets are gone.
The genuine legend that is Bobby Gillespie has fronted the band since (I think) 1982, and they have put out some seriously great albums over the years.
They went all out on the gig too, with a full band of backing singers, keys and saxophone, filling the stage as well as the venue with such a huge sound. This was matched with the excellent lighting, as well as Gillespie fronting everything with his usual effortless cool, and they played songs from their massive catalogue.
One of the best gigs I’ve seen in a while, and again, if you can, get down there tonight.
Fantastic stuff.
