    eg Sparkle In The Rain by Simple Minds ("Speed Your Love to Me" and "Street Hassle") produced by SW

    Interestingly, she neither played bass (no surprise there) nor sung backing vocals on the single. Former was Norman Watt-Roy(!), latter by the wives of producer and the label owner (according to wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/You'll_Always_Find_Me_in_the_Kitchen_at_Parties)

    I prefer the other one! ie, this one. You don't find lines like "This was at some do in Palmers Green" anywhere you know
  4. toneknob
    well also actually I have a 12/4-string double neck as well

    and a Rickenbacker, plus some kind of fretless and a short scale.
  6. toneknob
    Instruments.

    I went to my local guitar shop, said "Can I have a long stand please" He said "sure no problem" and went to the stock room I was waiting for ages

    There have always been old people on stage at Glastonbury. Here's Tony Bennett from 1998 at a very youthful 72 (youngster by all accounts this year!), and in incredible vocal form. Dig the end of Old Devil Moon and the note he holds for a full 12 bars, and the crowd knows they're hearing something special. I was there in 1998 ('nam flashback 100 yard stare). Got there Thursday. Nice evening! Friday = rain all day, all night. Saturday = quagmire. Went home. Got out of the bath in time for Tony B on BBC in the afternoon.

    Got some QotSA on now, nice to see Jon Theodore on drums, previously seen doing a Animal from the Muppets behind the kit with The Mars Volta

    I'm watching their set now. Good stuff! Nice Tina Weymouth vibe from bassist Josefine Jonsson. (not to be confused with the other Josefine Jonsson, who appears to be an ahem specialist ladieswear photographer, I discovered from google today - luckily I'm not in the office)

    Just catching up with their set for the first time. Best so far! (anyone got an effects board run-down?)

    Thanks for the link - that makes much shorter work of navigating the iPlayer UI!

    Shame they didn't do Love Missile F1-11
  14. toneknob
    Apparently (according to search results) Thundercat is somewhere in the iPlayer footage. Top prize goes to whoever can find it.

    I saw the full show at the RFH a week or two ago. Utterly absorbing and overwhelming.

    Nice of Mick Hucknall to stand in on vocals with Guns & Roses. Get well soon Axl!
  17. toneknob
    Yeah Guns'n'Roses aren't what they used to be
  18. toneknob
    Agree no Colin = no PT but they have recorded a live album from the recent tour and I bet that was all on a click. Godspeed to Nate though, what a player.
  19. toneknob
    organic artisan-sourced chips though
  20. toneknob
    They were on at Glastonbury when I was there in 1998. If I saw them I have no recollection of it 🥴

    if you can be tempted a bit more SE, Wickham Audio in Brockley https://www.wickhamaudio.co.uk/

    I think these days all tall flags are required by law to get as close as possible to the sightlines between all TV cameras and any band members currently on stage.

    I hope "your friend" found it in the end for a nice snooze.

    I'm hoping Elton and Axl revisit their landmark Bohemian Rhapsody duet first seen at the Freddie Mercury tribute gig in 1992
  25. toneknob
    Couple of gig reviews here: https://www.uncut.co.uk/features/blogs/peter-gabriel-o2-arena-london-june-19-2023-142862/ https://thequietus.com/articles/33075-peter-gabriel-live https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/may/24/peter-gabriel-review-haunted-new-songs-have-fans-punching-the-air https://www.ft.com/content/888582e4-8ec9-47dd-b162-13be10e9b997 ("There was nothing by Genesis". lol)
