So not last Friday, but the Friday before (18th November) Plus One Loo and I headed under the Severn to catch Danny Brown at The Marble Factory.
3/5 man definitely 3/5.
Pros
- Loud as fuck (praise be silicon earplugs, don't care, can't hack the ringing ears any more).
- Played 3 maybe 4 of the Rustie produced bangerz off Old in a row, plus Attak
- Interesting venue, quick staff, hooks to hang stuff on.
Cons
- Set finished at 10pm on the dot and the kicking out started a minute after that.
- I'm not a massive fan of Atrocity Exhibition (I know I'm in the minority on this).
- Not entirely sure Brown wanted to be there, sure he shouted out Brixton rather Bristol at one point.
Turns out I only really love Danny Brown when he is working with Rustie. So yeah 3/5.
What was 5/5 was the ramen we had before the gig. Sticks & Broth take a bow. Had the beef brisket ramen. Best thing I've eaten all year. Not only do Sticks & Broth have amazing ramen, they also possess a killer drinks menu (Plus Loo One had her first highball since Japan) and a banging music policy. When we were eating it was mostly funk and soul but right as we were finishing they only dropped the Bronksi Beat.
Amazing.
Sticks & Broth have a pop up opening soon in the Chinese Supermarket on Denmark Street, and I'm getting back on the train just for that. But come to Cardiff soon yeah Sticks & Broth?
