Why? at Cargo

Just got back from this (I bailed early to catch a train home because I'm a bed wetting pussy) but didn't anyone else find it a bit meh? The issue with the sound at the start was pretty farcical, if funny, but nothing sounded quite right to me. The vocals, drums and bass were really, really high in the mix to the extent that I could barely hear anything else, which meant a lot of the songs lost the melody and atmosphere. It's weird, because I love the band on record, but that set left me feeling pretty apathetic. Add to that, the fucking unbearable heat and the fact we were standing next to a dude who apparently hadn't washed in about a month, and it wasn't exactly the greatest gig ever.
