They played a bunch of songs from their two albums, a B-Side and a few brand new songs.

Lead singer Justin Hawkins, told NME that the gig had gone "as well as could be expected. You expect some hiccups and nerves, but we tried some things that we'd never done before and those are the things that worked."

New songs debuted at the show included Cannonball and Concrete.

Guitarist Dan Hawkins said: "We were playing stuff at a million miles an hour today, it was pretty cool. More like a punk rock gig that we used to do ten years ago."
