26th April 2024. On to the Bull for part 2 of ELF (every last Friday, the monthly mini music marathon in Battle). When we played here last time we were on a hiding to nothing with getting ourselves heard so had low expectations. But we were pleasantly surprised. It was tricky getting in as it’s a busy pub with lots of people gathering by the bar inside the entrance and you have to get through to the back room and the performance area. Jim managed to rig us up on the house PA and we had a decent sound, used our own mic. Saw Erika Olson who we’ve met a couple of times before and really admire. She was on before us but I think she’d had trouble with the PA. When we started playing, those nearest us were listening, as well as talking to each other, but it did seem that many were there for the music this time. We got applause at the end of songs and cheers even! It was quite invigorating. Another really quick pack up then we had to push our way out of the door again to head on to venue 3.
