The Wedding Present: Deer Caught in the Headlights

Small Story - 30 March 2025

After a couple of weeks of not feeling great, (I had thought about using Still Ill by The Smiths last week but a combination of that being too predictable and me lacking motivation put a stop to that) I was fit to join my good friends Ben, Kevin, Stuart and David for my semi-regular attendance at a gig by the semi-legendary Wedding Present.

It was at a new venue to me too, the Sub Rooms at Stroud. Nice place. Gloucester Guildhall vibes about it.

The Weddoes were great again. Another fantastically energetic performance with brilliant, extended dual (and duelling guitars) at the end of many songs. 

As is often the case on a gig week I pick a favourite from the night to represent the event. As I've already used the likes of Corduroy, Flying Saucer, Brassneck and Bewitched, which were highlights again, I've gone with Deer Caught in the Headlights, one of the standouts from their 2012 album Valentina.
