If you haven't bought your Rolling Stones tickets yet check them out on YouTube. I believe they're offering prizes for those who can tell Mick what key he's singing in.
Would that be me you're talking about? she said bashfully. Been gigging with the youngsters. Alt-J at the ABC. As many as 4 of us probably weren't students and surprisingly I wasn't asked to prove my age for a permission slip for the bar. An excellent gig, though the 2 supports were a bit tedious after a while. The first was sort of Ummagumma with some Bjork thrown in and there did come a point when you thought OK, kids, very nice, but off you go now. And they eventually did and oh good, now we can get on with what we've come to hear, uh oh, not quite here's some more people doing weird computerised noises and a bit of shouty singing. Oh well, it finally came to an end and Alt-J did their stuff very, very well.
You probably didn't want to hear all that, but neither did the cat, who preferred watching otters on the telly.
I mean there are some, far more qualified on this Blog that could aspire to doing that job (I'm thinking Gaie and MM here). Unless of course you're hoping to slip in some layby and car park action to the proceedings.
I'm putting this early Kings of Leon track in as ashout tonight.
Interesting to see the Hairy C on saxophone. Not sure about all the false mousers though. Reminded me of Norrie and that Movember scam of his. Still, it shows there was a time when you could wear a tank top in a band. However, the guy in the audience in the suit (halfway through)must have felt a tad out of place.

The only man in Britain who'd passed his banking exams and they put him on the radio.

Hot Chip was a similar experience but nevermind that, you're home safe & sound.
