One Night Only, Live at Thekla Bristol

3 February 2015

One Night Only finally made an anticipated return to touring by their show at Thekla, Bristol. The band had last played at Thekla a whole four years ago and have been off the scene up until recently. The band kicked off their set with a performance of one of their catchy new tracks 'Get Around To It'. The crowd seemed absolutely delighted that the band have returned. Although the crowd seem a bit calm for the first few songs, they do not fail to sing along and get livelier with the bands performance of 'Bring Me Back Down'. Evident throughout the set was the fact that the band had definitely matured sonically over the years and have adopted a brand new sound. They however have not changed enough to alienate fans who were enjoying the spectacular show that was being put on. The band emphasized on the importance of their fan base to their career. They even announced that they wanted fans to get involved in their new music video by taking footage of themselves and the band at the show. This footage would then be used by the band alongside their own tour footage for a new music video. Even though the band experienced some technical problems, the band still continued on and apologized to an understanding crowd who enjoy an instrumental put on by the rest of the band, whilst frontman George Craig fixes the problem with his amplifier. Upon fixing the technical issues, the band put on a extraordinary performance of their two most popular tracks, 'Say You Don't Want It' and 'Just For Tonight' which are crowd favorites. The show ended on a high note, an excellent start for the tour and return to touring for the band despite the few technical difficulties that were faced.
