Solange is better than Beyoncé

We went to watch Beyoncé’s little sister Solange at Manchester’s glamorous the Ruby Lounge the other night. It was very good. It was a lot better than we thought it was going to be actually.

We reviewed said gig for the local paper, although they chopped the bit out where we said Sandcastle Disco was like “the sort of handbag heartbreak that Holland-Dozier-Holland would surely have crafted if they’d had access to Pro Tools”.

Here is Sandcastle Disco. It’s the sort of handbag heartbreak that Holland-Dozier-Holland would surely have crafted if they’d had access to Pro Tools.

Special features of the video:

:: Drawn-on weather effects
:: Balloons
:: Drumsticks that change colour



Amazing. 8/10

Are you just trying to avoid a banning from all future gigs by merely suggesting that the Netto Beyonce even had a hair out of place? Or was she, in fact, good?

She was actually amazing. I really thought it was going to be humourless, dull shit but it wasn't.
