Ned’s gig proves to be explosive
Monday 25th May 2009, 12:26PM BST.
Recently reformed rockers Ned’s Atomic Dustbin returned to their home ground to play a 21st anniversary sell-out show in front of excited fans.
The Stourbridge five-piece opened with a couple of songs from their second album Are You Normal? before entering a 21-track long set list, which represented a song for every year in the industry.
Crowd favourite Until You Find Out really set the pace for the rest of the concert.
The band still have a very energetic stage approach. This seems to be a big part of what has kept fans young and old alike, coming back for more.
Lead singer Jonn Penney managed to catch a breath between songs to quote “In the words of John Denver, ‘It’s good to be home’”.
Local football chants brought Ned’s back to the stage for an electric encore.
