I found Broadcast to be fairly mundane indie-rock with some "kitsch" (ie
crap)
keyboard noodlings on top. Quite forgettable - and why on earth are they on
Warp?
Plaid - excellent, I thought. Looked very calm and comfortable with their
kit, and the
addition of live bass and a vocalist saved it from just being another couple
of blokes
with keyboards.

Nooo! I loved it :o) I haven`t concentrated so hard for ages! The
complexity
of their arrangements was baffling.
The night in general was ruined by the over-bearing heat inside the hall,
and the
uncomfortable seats. Good G&T`s at the bar though...
