Toy at Norwich Waterfront

Made the long trek with Turdster and The Boy Window (a Warwick Davis clone) to Norwich Waterfront to see Toy, supported by Charlie Boyer and The Voyeurs. They performed above the main hall, in a room reminiscent of our local village hall, a nice intimate size with a good atmosphere.

Take 1/3 of 1970s Glam Rock and mix with 2/3 Krautrock - mix vigorously
Add Summer of Love  haircuts with a pinch of Laurence Llewellyn Bowen campness
Insert glamour in the form of slim blonde with black skin tight, wet look leggings
Turn amps up to 11, season heavily with feedback and reverb
Hey Presto ! You have Toy

I enjoyed it, Turdster said it wasn't his thing and Window thought it was "fecking brilliant" , but he says this about every gig he's ever been to. A good night.
