Saturday 27 August 2011<\/div>\n

Four bands in one night is always pretty intense and Mercury’s line up of Sabretooth, Fox Comet, When Karma Sleeps and Red Huxley last Saturday was both pretty intense and loads of fun.<\/p>\n

\"Fox<\/a>\u00a0 \"Sabretooth\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While I’d heard of all 4 bands I’d only seen Sabretooth<\/a> and Fox Comet<\/a> before, and had enjoyed both enough to want to see them again (especially Fox Comet).\u00a0 First up though was Red Huxley. A few minutes before they started, a guy with long hair and shorts hopped onto the stage and stuck a sign saying ‘Red Huxley’ up behind the drums (which wasn’t removed until Fox Comet, so WKS had it up when they performed too); I was surprised that he wasn’t actually a member of the band and that Red Huxley is a trio (just because there aren’t a huge number of trios around).<\/p>\n

They have a pretty straight-up rock sound, not usually my thing but I did enjoy the bulk of their set (and thought the third track, whatever it was, was particularly cool).<\/p>\n\n\t\t
