After travelling a long way to get to London on the Friday afternoon and fighting our way through the city rush hour on the underground we were feeling less than enthusiastic about attending any gig that night. We arrived at Islington and were relieved to find that the venue was only a short walk from the underground station and that there were lots of restaurants and pubs to enjoy nearby before the gig started. We last saw John Butler a very talented guitarist and slide guitar player singer/songwriter) about 4 years ago when he had his trio with him, but he is so good we were keen to see this brilliant artist again dispite the long journey and he did not disappoint. There was a support of 2 other very talented musicians to warm up the audiance and when John Butler came out the place ( a real chapel!) erupted especially after his brilliant performance of' Ocean' which got a deserved standing ovation. He was just gob smackingly good and it is a shame he does not do more gigs in this country or be more well known but he was well worth the wait and I for one will be looking out for when he plays again. The venue was in itself very special too, no fab light show and some sound discrepancies (especialy when drums used) but sitting in the pughs and listening to that beautiful guitar playing fill the church you felt you were a part of something unique and we were. Thank you John Butler!

Well, being a little on the 'old' side I was not looking forward to going but having to take my both son's and my wife. The show from start to finish was the best I have ever seen. The music was fantastic, not what I was expecting and not over loud but loud enough and that was from all three acts. I have never seen a show with so much talent and variety.
The venue, the audience, the staff etc were first class, thank you very much

This would of been the third time i have seen John and unfortunately last night was not the best time i have seen him.
The Venue was absolutely amazing and was a joy to be there is such an intimate crowd. I thought Johns playing has improved somewhat and especially on his instrumental piece "Ocean" really stood out to be his most technical and got rewarded with a standing applause. All though i love his album "one small step, live and solo" i would still prefer to listen to the trio. I think i missed the trio last night. The drummer and bass player where exceptional musicians and brought light into Johns music. The special guest who came on and played drums was not very special and it felt like John was going backwards by paying with less professional quality musician(s). I understand John has now got another trio in place that does include the drummer from last night is it will be interesting to see what comes out in the studio. However this was still a great gig and the venue really did make the gig extra special!
