It seems like we have a trade-off here. Just as Guillemots take to the Pyramid, it starts raining again. This obviously does not amuse their madcap, and, on this evidence, meteorologically delusional frontman Fyfe Dangerfield, who declares “IT’S! NOT! RAINING!” rather defiantly, as well as wrestling with a wooden chair for at least two minutes, during the set.

Normally utterly shambolic live, The Cribs are consummate professionals today. Hey Scenesters and Men’s Needs sound fantastic, and the band are cast in a whole new light thanks to this dramatic live improvement.
