Be Your Own Pet
Dingwalls, Tuesday 26th August
Review by Zarina Raja
Last night, Dingwalls housed the last ever UK Be Your Own Pet gig.
As always, Jemima performed furiously, spitting out shrieking vocals as if her life depended on it.
Her appearance had dramatically changed from the last gig that they did at the Scala a few months back. Her ‘typical American’ looks; long blonde hair, perky face and tiny frame, had changed somewhat drastically, and now suited the tone of BYOP’s music and her stage presence.
Her hair, now cropped short and with an undercut on one side, lay pasted over her face and covered in sweat. Her make-up dribbled down her face; her smudged eyes reeking of something wonderfully Punk like.
The set was hot and frantic; the songs were short and bursting with an appetizing vulgarity, mainly led by Jemima.
Towards the end of the set, like excited teenagers (most of whom were probably teenagers) the crowd surged on to the set for one last Be Your Own Pet sweat-filled orgy.
And that was the end for Be Your Own Pet.
