I had been to Night Tales twice before: once in late 2020, in a window between lockdowns when Night Moves — aka Jane Fitz and Jade Seatle — did an evening set on the outdoor terrace, and everyone was meant to sit down but of course didn’t and it was great fun; and then again a year later, when Gwenan warmed up for Fantastic Man in the club room and we all got drunk on pornstar martinis and once again it was great fun. I remembered the sound being functional and the crowd being young and rowdy but in a good way. Random, sure, but up for it and into what Gwenan played. I knew I’d enjoy playing there myself, if it ever happened.
