Supposed to be seeing the Urban Folk Quartet in Reeth tonight, not having actually heard any of their music previously, but due to illness, it's just one of them, Dan Walsh.

Couple of gigs to report on the last few days...
Echo & The Bunnymen at the Bristol Beacon on Wednesday night were decent, Ian McCulloch is well past his prime and even more rambling than before, and it was a bit of an odd set, where they played for half an hour then went off for 20 minutes, back for a 45 minute set two, then off for a full five minute encore break. And then when half the crowd had left they came back on for a second encore. But the songs are still glorious, and the band are still great. And my teenager loved every minute.
And last night was the start of the annual 'Weekender' London residential for The Hold Steady, one of the great rock n roll bar bands, I reckon. Its probably terribly old fashioned, but loads of guitars, crowds yelling along to all the choruses with arms in the air, and a band who genuinely look like they're loving every minute of playing live are pretty life affirming things for me

I saw the Bunnymen last week too, at the Roundhouse up that London. Macca in anti-pop star mode as usual, there was no spotlight on him, Will or anyone else for that matter - the lighting was very dense.
Macca's between-song banter was all but impenetrable; he mutters into the microphone then gets arsey when he doesn't get a reaction. Quite possibly heard him say how he hates gambling and all the gambling-related advertising these days. Quite possibly heard him say how he foocchhinn hates foocchhinn paedophiles. Yep, I think you're on pretty safe ground there old boy.
Great songs though, he and Will were both in great form there.

Most incoherent I've seen was Isaac Brock of Modest Mouse who started by saying his management had told him not to tell long rambling stories because, they said, he just mumbles into the microphone and no-one can hear or understand him properly. He then proceeded to mumble on inaudibly into the microphone for five minutes...

Bob Dylan - Cardiff, more than 10 years ago. Morose and hiding at the back with song arrangements that meant that after 5 or 6 minutes you *might* say, ah, Maggie's Farm...
