This goes without saying but having known the band since early childhood and never having had a chance to see them live, this was an exciting opportunity. Judging from the age of the crowd it was a lot of people's first Wavves show too.
In celebration, their first, eponymous album has just been re-released as a special vinyl issue – an appropriately retro gesture for a band inspired especially by ’60s music.
