It's the forum, Plan B has just finished his set and the full house is ready for mr manuva - this is the first leg of this UK tour - we don't have to wait long Roots Manuva turn up on stage, dropping tracks fresh from his new Awfully Deep album and shows us why he has been the premier top dog in the UK urban field and with the support of a flawless backing band, Roots Manuva are on fire tonight.
When they drop classic tracks from Run Come Save Me such as Dreamy Days and Dub Style the crowd go mental with people left right and centre poggoing like there no tomorrow; the crowd are singing along the backing vocals and it's clear from the expression on the face from the band and the man himself that this has been a pretty rare experience.
When the Banana Clan walk off stage the crowd know they're gonna get the encore that everyone is waiting for; it's another couple of tense moments and the Manuva drop straight into the encore with a brand new track, the bass is pounding and the crowd gets restless... then they drop Witness and the crowd are ecstatic, they stop and the crowd are bewildered, then Mr Manuva just laughs just to see the amusement on the sea of peoples faces, then straight back into an extended version of the track. The songs finishes on a scratching high and the crowd are left wanting more. It was truly an honour to experience such quality in music tonight, truly a gig that will has been drilled into the back of peoples mind for a long time coming.
