The weather had taken a turn for the worse, but it didnt manage to dampen anyones spirits for this evenings event at Cannock Forest. The purpose built summer stage stands in a smaller enclosure than the previous Weller gigs, but I must say, it was a brilliant idea as the stage was in a perfect little valley so everyone had a fantastic view standing on the hill side. The audience also got another treat this evening, a free Twisted Wheel cd, which will surely be played over and over again!
As if by order, the rain stopped ten minutes before Twisted Wheel came on stage, which we were all revelived about. They stormed into their first number 'Lucy The Castle' while the Weller fans looked on in awe.
Twisted Wheel set list:
'Lucy The Castle'
'Bad Candy'
'Shes A Weapon'
'One Night on The Street'
'Strife'
'Turn Around'
'Let Them Have It All'
'You Stole The Sun'
'Oh What Have You Done'
'We Are Us'
Twisted Wheel were literally steaming tonight (as were the audience). But, by heck there were broken strings (two - quite how Jonny manages to keep going with no one having the faintest idea anything has happened is anyones guess, nothing phases him, a sign of a true professional musician, including during the set, the intermittant guitar sound, due to a faulty guitar knob, obviously frustrated Jonny, but he is a master carftsman and knew just how to deal with the problem with the total ease of his expertise, he is totally unflappable!!)
They wasted no time in getting the audience warmed up for Weller. With Jonny's occasional plug to go & buy the album on the merchandise stand, and the comments on the weather. Once again 'Turn Around' went down extremely well with the audience, it got the best round of applause tonight, even surpassing 'You Stole The Sun'. With the crowd's reaction, I am sure, Twisted Wheel are well on the way to making it big time.
