Richard Dawson last night, excellent as usual.
Osees on Monday, great fun.
Loop last Saturday, really awesome, thought I'd never get a chance to see them.
An unusually busy week for me! Will be going to Lankum next Wednesday and there'll be a bit of a break then for a while.

They were lucky that people didn't rob the ohsees float.

"Where's my money Baz, where's my fucking money?"

He's been working with them and Primavera for years now.

The Beths. It was fantastic. Just wow.

I'm just back from OMD in St Anne's Park. They were cool, I enjoyed it. It was all kinda high energy festival-crowd-friendly stuff, blokes givin it loads. No introspective moody synth tunes, it wouldn't have worked. Souvenir was the highlight for me. Everything else about the whole St Anne's set up was wretched so I didn't bother sticking around for Soft Cell. I can hear them from here anyway. I think it might have been better to find a nice spot in the park fairly close and just enjoyed it from there.

Expecting it to be a pain in the hole getting there and home for Pulp next week.

I might stroll up and sit outside for that, if I'm around.

I'd like a sit-down OMD gig in the NCH

why hold something like this outdoors?
what are the pros?

I own records by both Soft Cell and OMD but unless they played the tunes EXACTLY as in 1981, I'd have no interest in seeing them.
EDIT:
same goes for Kraftwerk or anyone else from that era

 

[Cormcolash]

OMD are still class. Soft Cell, meeeeeh.
Think St.Anne's can hold about 7000.
The outdoor isn't as good for 80s music, most 80s stuff is made for clubs after all, but the visuals for Joan of Arc and Maid of Orleans were still really cool.

Had a great time at Pulp on Friday

I had to miss Pulp cos of my house shit but it finally prompted @Lili Marlene to make contact and confirm that he is, in fact, alive. Alive and well.

Who?

Pulp was brilliant. Had no idea how big that venue was, standing at the back would be rubbish.

We had a great time in the pit.

Vieux Farka Toure in the Sugar Club. Game of two halves. Never less than good (electric) and occasionally sublime (acoustic).

 

[ernesto]

Good time (John) supporting (Sad time) Mount Eerie last night in Whelans. Was a lovely Sunday eve gig that brought out loads of folk I’ve not seen in yonks

Went down to Beyond The Pale for a bit yesterday. Very cool and chill. I would have liked to have been camping.
