Wired at Rickmansworth Festival 2010

27 May 2010 No Comment

In my most humble opinion , it’s my website so I can say what I like :-) , you have two choices as an up and coming band; be an originals band where you write, arrange and perform your own songs, or you are a covers band. An originals band have their own problems to hurdle the main one being most people have not heard of their songs. With a covers band you face another difficulty in that the audence will know the songs you sing, they will know it very well too so the band have to nail it or else they will fail dramatically.Which leads us nicely to Wired.

I’ve know of Wired for a couple of years now. They’re a very talented bunch of musicians fronted by a charasmatic lead singer. Having only seen them once before at the Goat in Berkhamstead I was amazed at their unique take on some very well established songs.

They play crowd pleases which is great as that’s what the audience wants. There is nothing more disappointing when a covers band plays a set where the songs are big hitting anthems; not so with Wired. Covering bands such as Oasis and Killers they know what their fans one and they give it out in droves.

Sounding great on stage is one thing, but as a stage performance I have seen young bands die because they just have no presence. A stage is a big space to fill if you don’t know how to use it. Wired did not disappoint. They are veterans of knowing how to please a crowd, and a photographer :-D
