Another great family event in Middlesbrough the annual reindeer Parade and Community Carnival – The theme this year was The Nutcracker.

My favourite photo was this pre-parade snap of Santa and his elves.

Visual equation: Sarah Silverman + Fraggle = Imogen Heap. The gig was at the Sage in Hall One. They had a small pit at the front similar to what they had for the Futureheads.

The drive to the Sage was a bit dicey. At one point there were sheets of rain coming down with hardly any visibility. Many cars were stopping on the shoulder to wait it out.

We listened to the Cathy Davey CD from last night still really good.

I’d been listening to Ellipse for a good chunk of the day at work. Could have also been listening to Frou Frou’s Details - happy making she sang Let Go based on the crowd’s votes for 12 songs on the setlist via her website.

She was plugging her new DVD which was just released on the 1st. It sounds interesting Imogen Heap’s Everything In-Between: The Story of Ellipse [DVD].

The bright  lights on the stage meant I couldn’t take decent pics on my phone the way I did last night but couldn’t resist trying to capture her with the Keytar :) Also in cartoon format here.

The tree in the set was beautiful, lighting up in different colours with instruments hanging in the branches. She uses a head mic plus mics on her wrists so she can brush up against random instruments and also briefly used wine glasses as in Miss Congeniality.

On of the best bits of the gig was three part harmonies with the crowd on Just for Now. We were in the middle section and I got to hear Kev sing * swoon* . Video below is of a sing along at Webster Hall in NY.

Setlist for the Sage Gateshead is available on Imogen Heap’s website »

We caught most of the opening set by Cathy Davey.  She was really good. We bought her latest CD The Nameless and listened to it on the car ride home. Had an interesting view of the stage from where we sat (photos taken with HTC Desire phone). Off to see Imogen Heap in Hall One tonight.
