We started our two day venture by hitting the Camden markets.

Then finally it was 7pm. Dallas was even better than I imagined. For those of you unfamiliar with Dallas Green check out the video below - a song from his new album.
Every second he sang was just incredible. Singing songs from his first album he performed alone but for songs from the second and third album he was joined by his band (I was a little anxious to see whether it would sound the same with a band as he originally began on his own, but they worked great together).
The supporting act was a guy named Hanni El Khatib from LA who was pretty good! He's got this kind of old country sound to him.
Here are some of the photos I took of the night:
The Roundhouse was a really cool venue. Pretty obvious really but it is a massive round building although the stage area is really intimate so even though we were high up in the circle we could still see really clearly - the band weren't far away at all. The only annoying thing is that there are 21 pillars which depending on your seat can obstruct the view. Luckily we had great seats in between pillars.

We stayed in the Camden Lock Hotel which was literally opposite the Roundhouse and only 2 minutes from a Salisbury's. On the outside it looks a bit grotty but our room was lovely and clean and so cosy! They don't have a 'closing' time either so it didn't matter what time the gig finished.
On Wednesday we went for a three hour open top bus tour which was AMAZING! I've always wanted to go on one of them and the lovely boyfriend got us some tickets. It was absolutely freezing though so by the end of the tour holding my camera was near impossible as I couldn't feel my hands.
Here are some pictures I took of the tour:
