Two very intimate gigs in London so far this week Monday was Emma Swift at The Troubadour, with her other half Robyn Hitchcock as support, then Wednesday was Robyn aboard the replica of Drake's ship The Golden Hinde in Southwark, with Emma providing b/vox for a few numbers.

indeed. I love watching her play, she has such great joy. Peter Hope Evans of Medicine Head is on harp.

A busy week next week: Monday is Emma Swift at The Borderline, her hubby Robyn Hitchcock aboard the replica of Drake's Golden HInde in Southwark on Wednesday, then Gob Nation all-day festival at The Dome in Tufnell Park on Saturday, including Ex-Vöid and The Tubs on the bill.

Local boy Robbie McIntosh with his band at The Sound Lounge in Sutton last night Always a quality act, the gig being 10 minutes' walk from my house was bonus

A very different four letter word that begins with ’C’ came to my mind 🤐

Screams - Scream

YouTube is often good for this kind of thing where other, more official channels don't exist. There are certainly some singles and a 1978 Peel session by The Zones there, and it looks like the whole of their Under Influence LP has been posted as individual tracks:

Damn! That looks like gig I regret missing out on

Saturday night it will be Chris Difford at my local venue, The Sound Lounge in Sutton. I, Doris are supporting and they promise to perform their take on Up The Junction from a female perspective, The Girl From Clapham, so this should be fun 😄

Belly at the Camden Electric Ballroom on Weds night, playing their album King start to finish on occasion of it being 30 years old, plus a second set of favourites Gail Greenwood is always excellent value for money as a performer 😎

I suspect he needs to learn to accept he lost the case for valid reasons

Latterly No, 19 was Argent's / Music Room before they moved across the street

I have experienced pretty much this exact scenario! William Morris Club in Wimbledon 1988, and it was 7" single. The dog was well behaved at least. Another time, about ten years later, with a different band, after a couple of pretty successful dates in the autumn, we were booked to play the small room at the Mean Fiddler on 2nd or 3rd January, so everyone was still recovering from New Year. What's more it was a Tuesday night, freakishly cold (something like -7C IIRC) and quite windy to boot. Unsurprisingly, I think we had about three people in the audience. I took a peep into the main room and even the headline act had pulled about ten people in. We were told shortly after that The Fiddler wouldn't be booking us any more because we were not able to get enough people along.

Belly celebrating the 30th birthday of their album KING at the Electric Ballroom in Camden will be my treat on Weds evening
