Portsmouth Pyramid Centre
By Paul Carrett
As part of the completely sold out ‘777’ tour You Me At Six brought their catchy pop punk riffs to Portsmouth Pyramids.
Support tonight comes from two American bands: ‘Emarosa’, making their debut in the UK, and ‘The Spill Canvas’ who have already established a large fan base in the UK. However, with ‘The Spill Canvas’ being quite a slow band, they didn’t really warm the crowd up for the headline band.
You Me At Six kick off their set with the recent single ‘Jealous Minds Think Alike’ followed by ‘Gossip’, this is UK pop punk at it’s best. During ‘The Truth Is A Terrible Thing’ the Surrey boys break into an excellent cover of Fall Out Boy’s ‘Sugar, We’re Going Down’.
It’s amazing how far this band have come in the four years they’ve been around and their maturity is shown with the complexity of slower songs like ‘Tigers and Sharks’ and ‘Always Attract’.
You Me At Six finish the night with ‘The Rumour’ and with the entire crowd hands in the air, singing the lyrics ‘Hold your hands in, into the air, Hold your hands as if you care’ as loud as possible, You Me At Six really are at the top of their game.
