CKY – The 1865
I found myself travelling to a gig comprising a Numetal opener to a headline of CKY. I also find myself surprised it's not 2003 and I’m not 18… And here was to start my review full of nostalgia and comparing old vs new. The gig was filled with a surprising wide range of ages, and a band synonymous with skating and gaming being relevant today really appealed to that nostalgia after 25 years of music. However, having left the gig I was left confused as to why I wasn’t swept up in a haze of rose-tinted sentimentality. But considering the aftermath, the reasons all come together.
