Current mood:  hot
Elusive kindly gave us the heads-up about this smashing review in londonist

Hot Leg (Listen: See them 1/6 @ Indig02) Justin Hawkins of The
Darkness leads what is hands-down the best half hour of the weekend.
They sound studio-quality, with every soaring falsetto note and searing
guitar solo finding its mark. They also sound exactly like the
Darkness, which is exactly what the audience wants. Only these choice
snippets from Hawkins' unfazed banter can begin to do the show justice:
"There is a man in a one-piece trying to top the crowd." (Remarking on
a sozzled serial crowdsurfer in a red jumpsuit who, at a distance,
could be mistaken for a member of Datarock.) "No, you idiot, how are
they going to see you if you're in there with them?" (Chastizing a
disobedient member of the crowd who was meant to stand on stage
shirtless.) "I think you know the rules about getting off the stage
during Hot Leg." (In asking a woman to either leave the stage or remove
her shirt, as per their rules.) "WE ARE HOT LEGGGGGG!" (In a song.)
Why, oh why wasn't everyone here? (AS)
Great music, great.
