The Cribs were in London last night (September 11th) performing a setlist entirely chosen by fans.
The band submitted their 93 officially released songs to a public vote and, after competition winners Rale had finished their support slot, began the show at The Garage with ‘Mirror Kisses‘.
That 2005 single set the tone for an evening which proved their crowd were looking for a hit-packed night when choosing their favourites, with other standout singles such as ‘Come On Be a No-One‘, ‘Martell‘, ‘Men’s Needs‘ and ‘Hey Scenesters!‘ all present amongst some less familiar material.
The Cribs are readying a new album for release in the first part of 2015 after their ten-year stay with Wichita Recordings came to an end last month when the Jarman brothers moved to fresh surroundings, namely Sony RED.
