Saw the Hoosiers at Kiln Farm MK11. The venue is amazing- well decorated with vinyls on the ceiling at the bar and comic book covers on the walls. There's no seating near the stage but the standing area is big enough for a small crowd of maybe 200 people, making shows here quite intimate and fun. Having never been to a concert in such a small venue before, I wasn't sure what to expect, but the show was better than I could have imagined. The lead singer went out into the crowd for a guitar solo and even gave people hi-fives. The best part was at the end when the band stayed by the door, having said they "wanted to shake the hand of every member of this wonderful audience", and let people take photos with them. As for the music, they played all their most popular songs as well as some newer stuff from their latest album.
The support acts, Betraying Franklin and the Sons were also great and I think the Sons did an excellent job of warming up the crowd.
My advice would be to get a spot near the front in this venue while the support acts are still on so you can get a good view of the stage and if you have to go anywhere, do so in the breaks and get your friend to hold your spot- but the same advice applies for pretty much any standing concert.
Overall a good night, a friendly band (even the drummer talks!) and at a reasonable price for tickets and drinks.
