'Television sharing a cab with Gogol Bordello whilst speeding down Deansgate' would be the best way I could describe The Fayre's annexation of the stage for the fourth and final performance of the night. Amazing renditions of the fans' favourites of 'Linda Boom', 'Rose Queen', and the piercing rhythm of 'Dog Fight' left the crowd screaming for more. The final song Greenhous resorted one fan to get on his friend's shoulders, much to the behest of the bouncers, whom The Fayre tributed a song to. This sarcastic tribute to the authorities suggested that the band are against the already-accepted, against convention, in music and in heart. Which explains their hatred of cover bands and carbon copies of the Arctic Monkeys. The contrasting guitars of Austin and Stocky sent your ears in two different directions, then guiding them back again to meet each other. The main area of focus of the audience was at Austin's voice, which is a very rare find amongst unsigned bands. As was promised, the music was fast, fun, and had a unique tinge to it, which certainly delighted this writer. Although every member of the band left the crowd in awe and in 'Bez formation' upon bended knees, the one who stood out most was Austin. In him is a rare and progressing talent indeed. When asked of his second name, he refused to say: "Just call me Austin". All great bands have a tendency to have a great eccentric as a frontman. Watch out for this four-piece at Glastonbury this year. Where they will no doubt raise the roofs off everyone's tents.
