For some reason security were unable to get people in at a timely rate on the 2nd night, so we missed Street Dogs and the first few songs of Hepcat. With their swing-ska style Hepcat made for a casual start in the cooler weather this evening.
Up next were the Cockney Rejects – the Godfather’s Of Oi!. These East Londoners gave all in their hardcore set. While it wasn’t quite my cup of tea, it was a blistering set. I loved their football songs (which none of the crowd seemed to get), Trouble On The Terraces and West Ham’s unofficial theme I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles.
Last band for the night was Rancid. I can’t get enough of these guys live. They are a great band, who put on a fantastic show, and fans aren’t afraid to show their appreciation for what they do on the stage. Rancid's punk gives you no choice but to dance. Their love of their music is infectious. All the way through the set the band played great song after great song. Roots Radicals and Olympia, WA were standouts. And the encore with Time Bomb and Ruby Soho left me wanting for more. That will have to wait for tomorrow night.
