NOT my words, but the words of Bournemouth's premier lifestyle magazine aimed at the 18-35 demographic.

The comment was in relation to La Pringle's set in support of Does It Offend You, Yeah? at Bournemouth's positively Barleyesque iBar.

The piece continues......

'A simple act, nothing but a girl, an iPod and a microphone. If you can't say anything nice, then don't say anything at all; she spent most of her set complaining about the microphone. It was like watching a Kate Nash wannabe from the outtakes of X-Factor, the crowd were more embarrassed than she was'.

Rubbished by DV8, it could have been worse, it could have been a media powerhouse like the Dorset Echo!
