I shall be in Bexhill on Sea this evening watching Curtis Stigers at the Del La Warr Pavilion. Part of the Rye Jazz and Blues Festival. 

Excellent show and a full house to boot.

Oh and I’m tempted by the Fairground Attraction reunion that comes here the following weekend, but put off by the thought that it might just be a massive sing-along-fest.
 

I don’t care if people yell their lungs out to Perfect, it was never one of my favourites anyway, but I’m not paying fifty quid to have Allelujah or The Moon Is Mine drowned out by the flipping punters.

Just got back from seeing Texas in Birmingham. Not a band I'd usually go to see, but went with a friend.

 

Wow - what a show! Great sound, the band were fantastic and she can still wail. So nice to see someone with charisma fronting a band too.

 

Favourite bit was when Charlene went right up to a woman that was waving several cardboard signs. She looked at them all, chatted with the woman a bit then said "I can't help thinking of the people behind you as you're waving those signs. I've seen them all now, so put the f***ing things down and let's party". All good natured but it got a good laugh.

Hopefully Big Big Train at Thorndell Hall on Monday, but that rather depends on how recuperation from the operation last Tuesday comes along

Gutted. I’ve had to accept the inevitable that it’s too soon after the op last Tuesday and I’m really not mobile enough (also wifey didn’t want to drive the first leg to a mate who was going to do the main drive) so I have passed them on to my partner in crime in The Volunteer Club project.

Adam Ant 

As a teenage punk I followed Adam and the Ants around the country.  Then Dog eat dog got released and Adam and the Ants descended into a shiite pop band followed by teenyboppers.  

 

I think he still plays the odd song from 78-9, like 'Fat Fun' and 'Beat my Guest', but I guess he will mainly be playing the stuff he came out with while dressed as a pirate or highwayman.

 

I wonder how full the Roundhouse is going to be on Nov 9th?

My next gig will probably be Khruang Bin at the Hammersmith Odeon on Nov 20th.  I bought these tickets back in March, I think; apparently, they will be available to view on the Eventim app a couple of days before the gig.  This crusty old fart would much prefer to have a small piece of card with 'Khruang Bin Nov 20th Eventin Apollo' written on it.

He's done tours where he played all of Dirk Wears White Sox.

I volunteer Front of House at our local theatre, last Friday we had The Dung Beatles, a really excellent Beatles tribute band - not the usual run of the mill lookalikes but a band that is sound perfect - and who currently feature the 60 years of A Hard Days Night in their set.

 

I’ll be on duty to see Ralph McTell performing here in November, and the ‘Searchers and Hollies Experience’ a couple of days later.
