I knew we were due for a treat from the moment Yoni Wolf bounded on stage, yelled “GET THE FUCK UP” and launched into “The Hollows”. Previous London shows cast Yoni as a rather miserable presence, appearing to resent his frontman status but tonight he's on fire, quipping to the audience, high-kicking in an inexplicable manner and generally seeming like he's enjoying himself as much as we are. There's a hell of a lot of Alopecia in the setlist- which is fine by me- and although we don't get Sanddollars there's still enough nods to the rest of their back catalogue (not least the airing of Hymie's Basement's “21st Century Pop Song”) to keep the old school happy.
