Mok @ The Prince Albert
Mok have just surpassed themselves, their headline slot at Brighton's Prince Albert tonight being easily their best gig yet. Leading on from an eclectic mix of supporting acts including 'My tour of duty's' last ever gig, the penultimate leg of 'Six Storey's High' mini-UK tour and good mates 'Angry vs the bear' from Colchester, Mok blasted their way through songs old and new. The air was hot, the audience were hotter. But the band were shit hot!

Dave Hole
Dave Hole is a British born Australian left-handed slide guitarist whose playing regularly reduces me to tears. Give this seven minute 'Short Fuse Blues' a go and you'll see what I mean. Nuff said. Watch and weep!
