...Sad to say, apart from the odd moment (an acoustic version of Shock the Monkey, for example), it's only serving to remind me how boring the concert was and why I was happy to leave before the end.  I don't think it'll be getting a second play.  :(

Oh, poo :( We're going to see him in December.

French jazz radio on FIP, which seems to be doing jazz covers of Michael Jackson at the moment.

They've announced some UK dates next spring, you know.

Ooh, ta!  I shall Investigate...

Edit: April, 17th - Albert Hall, Manchester.  20th - Shepherds Bush Empire, That London.

np: Masters Of Reality.  I don't understand these arj-fangled "networks", that they have now, but my iThings Library has appeared on Mr Sunshine's Babbage-Engine so it would be wrong not to.  Also, Chris Goss can do a spookily-accurate Jim Morrison.

It's marginally better than two nights in London, though (I'm looking at you, Cat Power), and doesn't merit being called a tour.

UK Subs.

Went to see them last Saturday in Ipswich. Sad to say the sound quality wasn't that great. The warm up bands, Jack The Lad and Red Flag 77 were a bit better. Still, got in for free as managed to get on the quest list courtesy of a friend who's BiL is the bass player with the Subs.

They have added a date in Glasgow.  Though this is not much of an improvement, it's a bit closer to Furryboottoon.  Londonton tickets not now on sale until midday tomorrow chiz, after I'd set the alarm cat an'all.

Going off to my RT appointment this morning from St Paul's a busker (I suppose we must call her) at the bottom of the escalator was singing ‘Voi che sapete’, Cherubino’s aria from Le Nozze di Figaro. I realised just as I reached the platform that her voice was sending shivers down my spine so I looped back to the escalator to make a donation. Listening now, it doesn’t have the same effect; must be the acoustics.

Not today, but being mid November it won't be long before the old Jethro Tull Christmas selection comes out again.

That reminds me, must find the "Christmas Around The World" CD, ready, as Mrs T will insist on the decos going up on 1/12.

Roy Harper - Stonehenge, UK. 1984

On YouTube and looking for myself in the audience. It seems a lifetime away.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

It's the sort of music which begs to be cranked up to 11, but I doubt the neighbours (left, right and/or below) would appreciate it so stereo set at a 'sensible' volume. *sigh*

Agreed, you need a detached house, or deaf neighbours!
