I've always just liked Portishead. They were never a life-changing band for me, they just had a few songs over the years that I quite enjoyed. Despite the cost and atrocious venue, I suppose I bought the ticket because even after all this time (17 years?! eeks ...) they still held my interest. Sour Times sounds just as good today as it did when I first heard it in 1994. And well, live, they really are very good. I mean good enough that I enjoyed myself despite the awfulness of the venue. It must be magical to see them in a concert hall or somewhere that didn't used to be a barn. Maybe I've been missing out on not listening to them that much, I'm just glad I took the opportunity to see them live, they were definitely worth it.
