GOGOL BORDELLO (London Brixton Academy, 13/12/13)


Despite a few personnel changes, gyspy-punk mentalists Gogol Bordello haven't changed a jot in the five years and five days since I last saw them. Eugene Hutz is still completely unhinged, the audience is still full of shirtless dreadlocked hippies, and “Start Wearing Purple” is still the only song that can get 100% of a given audience pogoing in unison. Very enjoyable, albeit a bit too frantic at times for an old geezer like myself.
