Bobby K Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Been looking forward to this for a long while and now it's only a week away! If you know your Kate Bush, you'll know I'm gonna be spoilt rotten with this one; fantastic songs with fantastic bass lines and the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall is an amazing venue to play. Our Kate Bush is a dutch girl called Maaike Breijman and does an awesome job, of both the singing and dancing. We're hopefully going to be touring later this year/early next year, so watch this space.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truckstop Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Yeah nice one mate! Hope it goes well. Still can't believe anyone as innovative and as stylistically recognised as Kate Bush is not in the Hall of Fame. Sickening! Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby K Posted April 4, 2012 Author Share Posted April 4, 2012 Couldn't agree with you more Truckstop! Getting involved with this project has really got me into Kate's stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ou7shined Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 What's your set list man? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby K Posted April 6, 2012 Author Share Posted April 6, 2012 (edited) I haven't got it to hand at the moment Rich, but suffice to say, all the big hits are there (as they have to be in a tribute I suppose) My fave in the set has to be [i]SAT IN YOUR LAP[/i]- awesome tune, with so much going on! Other highlights for me are the fretless Giblin tunes like [i]BREATHING[/i] and [i]BABOOSHKA. [/i] I'm also playing cello on [i]THE MAN WITH THE CHILD IN HIS EYES[/i]- which promises to be fun!

Ou7shined Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Nice one. I'm glad you got Breathing in there. I'd hate to make the call on choosing which songs to leave in or out, there's so much quality tuneage. I've been besotted with her stuff since I first saw her as a nipper back in the 70s on our black & white telly (could have been TOGWT) - I remember my mum catching sight of her and saying "who's that witch?" . I stuck with her even when it wasn't cool and all my metal/grunge mates were wondering wtf I was listening to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] that's what it's all about mate innit? Yeah, I remember being well freaked out by her when I was a kid lol; the video to [i]Sat in Your Lap, [/i]scared me shitless - now I think it's genius!! What quality players she had on her albums too eh? The set is quite varied, a nice mix of tunes in there and there are a few that Maaike (kate) sings on her own at the piano - such as [i]And Dream of Sheep [/i]and [i]This Woman's Work. [/i]Lovely stuff! I'll pm you the set when I get hold of it mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby K Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Gig was fantastic! Standing ovation at the end made all the hard work worth it. Watch this space as there may be a tour with this very soon..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
