Enuff Z'Nuff - Thursday 9th December 2010 - London Borderline

This was Enuff Z Nuff’s third visit to the UK in 2010. Following on from their joint headlining tour with Faster Pussycat at the beginning of the year and a successful set at Download, they’ve once again returned for a short tour. Having played in London at the Camden Underworld and Camden Barfly, they chose the Borderline to play their intimate London gig. They’ve always had a cult following so it was good to see so many people here to see them (again) in London. Having been delayed arriving at the venue due to the student protests happening in Central London that day, all was forgotten when they opened with “Saturday”. This was swiftly followed by “Baby Loves You” and “We’re Alright”. Two great songs that always get the girls at the front dancing. Donnie Vie was suffering from flu and told us he got an injection in his backside earlier so he could sing tonight. Of course there were plenty of people to assist him vocally throughout their set. Perhaps Chip Z’Nuff had flu as well as he had his scarf on and his coat done up for the entire concert. Still wearing his trademark hat and shades he always looks the coolest musician. Although not 100% fit, by the size of Donnie’s smile, he was clearly delighted to be back in London. After a shot of tequila, he strapped on his guitar, and we were all singing along to “Right By Your Side”. After a cover of The Beatles “Come Together”, there remained only 2 songs left, “Fly High Michelle” and “New Thing”. So after 50 minutes, the gig was over. Short but sweet however they certainly did not disappoint. They said they will return next year, which certainly will not be too soon.

Enuff Z’ Nuff’s set list:
Saturday, Baby Loves You, We're All Alright, The Beast, Heaven Or Hell, Right By Your Side, Time To Let You Go, Come Together, Fly High Michelle, New Thing
