On Thursday, I went over to the Shepherd’s Bush Empire for an evening of sea-shanties, soldiers, murderous butchers and women of ill-repute…brought courtesy of Oregon-based indie sweethearts The Decemberists. I wasn't sure how well they would come across live, but lead singer Colin Meloy’s occasionally grating voice actually sounded better than on

Sounds like a great gig. The special guests were a cool touch! And I love Shepherds Bush Empire... for sentimental reasons.

I do like the Shepherd's Bush Empire, it's a lovely looking venue, but I've always found the acoustics there to be a bit suspect...Sentimental reasons, you say?

You know, it's not the best-looking venue like KOKO, for example, but I've seen some people I really like there so I can't help but love it because of all the memories.
