Yeah. It was a much more exciting past life and I got a comp for Glastonbury that weekend. Had to get back as I'd promised, foolishly, to cover Glyndebourne the following day, but went for one night just to see Portishead. Spectacular gig. Struck me how Beth just rolled on in a hoodie/raincoat, looking like she was having a yoga session or something. Went to France to see them the following year, would be smashing to see them again but I imagine if they toured the prices would be prohibitive.

Exactly and then she opens her mouth and 'it's' there. Whatever 'it' is. Awesome set, the 'hits' are evenly spaced out and when they come are full on sing-alongs, the playing is unobtrusive and impeccable.
Hopefully they do another record and tour. They strike me as a band with principles, I don't see them charging more than say Radiohead.
Are they any good ?

The line up for Safe as Milk festival looks terrifyingly good. A UK first in nearly 10 years from Butthole Surfers added today.

Oathbreaker Saturday, Sabbath Sunday and I have just booked Kreator for the Forum in March. I may be on the look out for a quieter gig to go to now I think.
That may be wise. I can no longer do Oathbreaker - enjoy!

Bit groggy today after a great evening at The Forum. We were sitting in the balcony for Hookworms and the whole area was vibrating to the noise. Decided they were our favourites for the evening. Tiger Club I did not really get but good luck to them- and their from Brighton. Not been able to see Girl Band live before- despite having tickets. They did not disappoint and a creditable late addition to the line up Future Of The Left do what they always do and I just love them for it. Ended the set with ( in McLusky tradition) Lightsabre Cocksucking Blues. Then onto The Fall. M E Smith clearly enjoying himself. Quite a few new tracks from the soon to be released album. Only complaint was the cost of beer and no readmission into the venue.

Thought Hookworms and Girl Band were absolutely superb. Two of the finest young guitar bands around at the moment. FOTL played almost the set of my dreams but it would have been nice to hear a guitar.
The Fall were the worst I've seen them in years, although I thought they were noticeable better on two of the new ones.
Venue wasn't sold out so everything was pretty easy, though 5.50 for a bottle of Speckled Hen was a shock.

Just to clarify: have you got inside knowledge/a link to timings on Carla Dal Forno gig? And where's the nearest pub showing Hudds vs Albion?

Saw Hazel Winter ex BA guitarist on friday solo spoken word/blues and with Flux Capacitors. She is a fvcking awesome guitarist and a very funny songwriter. Top stuff go and see her/them if you get a chance.
