The Album Chart Show



Special guest post from Kimbo's far more eliqouent 500 Reasons Why blog:

Nick found a site online where you basically enter your details and preferences, and every so often, they will send you tickets to the taping of a TV show. On Monday night we went to the taping of Channel 4's The Album Chart Show at Koko in Camden where they were pre-recording appearances for the show. We saw Kila Kela, The Kooks and Placebo - all ok - and were looking to make an early exit to avoid Craig David, however were pleasantly suprised when they announced the final act would actually be Franz Ferdinand. Awesome.

After taking the piss out of the host all night (Nick & Andy, that is), we ended up in the very spot where he (Joe Mace) was going to make his final link to Franz Ferdinand. Never shy of missing an opportunity (Nick & Andy, that is), they insisted on a photo, and he played them like a pro. What a sport.
