Monitor @ VRP 5

Shambolic.. That was probably the most honest reaction I heard after the Monitor set last week. It's not unusual for things to go wrong during a show, and there are a myriad of possibilities: leads losing contact, strings breaking, dodgy mixes with no-one looking out, unpaid stage dancers having cat fights.. This time lots of things went west, but luckily none of them dampened spirits or took away from the energy as the band ripped through their up-tempo set of electro-pop loveliness..
