turday 7th November i attended my graduation ball held at the Southampton Guildhall. I was excited for many reasons meeting old friends i hadn't seen in months but also the headlining band Does it Offend you yeah?Does It Offend You, Yeah?were formed in Reading and were the ninth most listened to new band of 2008 on last fm. They were also included in the best alternative music list of 2008 on i-tunes USA.
With such a successful band headlining it was quite understandable why i was eager to get as close to the stage as i could. Not as close as some students who at one point managed to jump the barrier avoid security and strip on stage to lead singer James Rushent's amazement.
After dancing and an amazing set performed by the band myself and my friend Mike Chilton made our way outside for some fresh air and thought this night couldn't get better. How wrong we were!
While sitting on the steps outside the Guildhall talking about how much fun we were having at the ball i noticed creeping out of the front entrance none other than James Rushent and the Band. We had a huge chat about people storming on stage and what the band had lined up for the future, as well of course a photo to make all my mates jealous.
If you ever go to Reading, Glastonbury,Leeds or even notice Does it offend you year playing in your home town i would recommend them to anyone. There music is enjoyable, easy to dance to and the band are nice people to boot. Go and see them you won't be disappointed!
Me with Does it Offend you Yeah?
