I am touched in a big way. are the first band I have seen this year who actually mean something, who could take on the big boys and win if they wanted to. An audience in their palms and pretty well hanging on their every word, MDR can do whatever they want tonight. They are so laid back that they almost give the impression of not caring. Almost.

I suspect that they probably care a lot and that's why they are so very, very good. They have graced the room tonight and I am left with the impression that much greater things could come their way if they so desired. And if that eventually means playing bigger gigs then so be it.
