Despite being at number 1 in the UK, miniature pop sensation Lily Allen was appearing at a dingy little club in Sydney last Thursday night. Puffing on a cigarette and swilling a bottle of cider, Lily breezed through a seven song set to a hyped up crowd.
The lighting at Club 77 is tough for getting a good shot, dim and red. Combined with a 2 song, no flash rule it was tough, and i wasn't best pleased with my results, but here they are anyway.
The reason for playing such a small venue is presumably for scenes like these - hundreds of people snaked down William Street, most waiting in vain for a chance to get inside.
Apparently she'll be back later in the year to play one of the summer festivals.
You can read Cybele's review of the gig, accompanied by my photograph in this weeks Drum Media.

I loooooooooooove Lily! She is a legend. Her music is honest and if you don't like it, then deal with it and stop moaning!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If your going to leave nasty comments on a notice board, you might as well just make them actually offensive, if you don't like Lily Allen's music, dress scence or her smoking habit, then why are you looking her up on google or mozilla? Your real sad, anyway back to the positive note, I love Lily's music and fashion scence, and the whole ciggerette on stage think looks really cool.
Big fan Lily!

Lilly Allen, Thank you for giving us your real life lyrics from an authentic precious package. I will never forget your performance in Everett, WA earlier this year. Our government should let you have the visa now and apologize publicly for denying it. Keep it all up cool cat!
